Transmutation and forgiveness
"There is nothing we can't transmute once we stop calling it fate" (Robert Monahan).
A thread of the Love Dimension
Transmutation and grace
Fire as the force that breaks everything down to its essence, and love as a crucible. What came through the fire came through as grace.
The souls who carried it

Fire as transmutation
Angel named fire as the force that "breaks down all things into their essential parts… And beyond that point, it's free to become anything". Jen: "when we give that fire authentically, we create a wildfire", and at night, love as "a crucible" that refines us. The fire then moved through bodies all night: the fire flow at dusk, Ruby's "Plant your desire of what you wish to see" in the song the gift lane calls After the Fire, David's "we bring the fire" with fire dancers on both wings, and fire beside Liquid Bloom's decks.

Forgiveness and grace
"We feel. We see it. We acknowledge it. We forgive it." Then Ruby's blessing of grace "out to the world".

Love where it is hardest
Sam: "where can I love when it's the hardest to love?" and "carry the dark within the light". Bootsy's three strings (guilt, duty, obligation) answered by acting from the love dimension. Austin's truth unspoken, unfelt, unlived.
