The Secret Fire

The Secret Fire is a mystical concept from J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth legendarium, symbolizing divine energy, inner fire, or spiritual illumination. It represents a hidden, potent force capable of inspiring creation, guiding moral choices, or maintaining the universe’s balance. In the story, it’s associated with divine power that fuels the Light of the Valar and the balance between good and evil. The Secret Fire embodies hope, resilience, and the enduring human (or moral) spirit, often hidden but vital for growth and renewal when recognized and harnessed properly.
