Fire is a valid Western symbol of the spiritual energy known as kundalini, which rises from the base of the spine to the crown of the head and brings with it a shift in perception. A fire bucket, as with any hollow vessel can represent the feminine principle.
Fire often appears in dreams as a symbol of cleansing and purification. Sometimes, it indicates the need to use our sexual power to good effect. To dream of being burnt alive may express our fears of a new relationship. We may also be conscious that we could suffer for our beliefs. Fire in a dream can suggest passion and desire in its more positive sense and frustration, anger, resentment and destructiveness in its more negative. It will depend on whether fire is controlled or otherwise on the exact interpretation.
Fire is a powerful symbol. It is the only element we cannot pollute. It represents the power of light over darkness and it is generally a favorable symbol to the dreamer. A dream of fire being put out by water may suggest physical energy being restrained by the cooler process of thought.
Fireworks are generally accepted as belonging to a happy occasion or celebration though they may also be frightening. When we dream of fireworks, we are hoping to be able to celebrate good fortune.
