Fire Personality

Joy for Life & Passion

A Fire personality is easy to recognise. They laugh out loud and often continue laughing when everyone else is done. They are carefree, but that doesn’t mean they don’t care. A strong Fire personality is expressive, charismatic and warm-hearted – they love inspiring joy in people, making them happy, giving them warmth and supporting them in their endeavours.
