Scorpio is a sign of water or air. What are the elements of the zodiac signs?

Love compatibility can be assessed not only by the Zodiac Signs themselves, but also by their elements. It will be useful for those who are interested in more detailed information- after all, every nuance is important in feelings.

Many people prefer to find out love compatibility before starting a relationship in order to save their precious time. Of course, situations are not ruled out when perfect couples disintegrated, but this is already a human factor, because far from everyone the Universe has given the ability to carefully store the gifts of Fate. There are also people who create strong and happy marriages, despite the lack of horoscope compatibility.

Air Sign Compatibility

Air is Aquarius, Gemini, Libra. These Signs of the Zodiac are characterized by some windiness. This does not mean that they will constantly change. It's just that people born under the auspices of Air know what freedom is and value it above all else. Freedom does not impose a ban on marriage. This looseness is more of an emotional nature. When you hold back the representatives of the air element, they begin to act in defiance.

You don’t have to agree with them on everything and go on about it - just understand them. Astrologers say that best compatibility with air has Fire. However, lovers, who represent the union of these elements, must be extremely careful: the combination of fire and air can be explosive. This love will be passionate, but requires a lot of control if you want to get married and create a strong family. Great passion requires discretion.

Air and Earth- this is perfect combination to create a family. The emotional component in such a relationship will be reduced, so separation is possible in the early stages. However, if the lovers successfully overcome possible problems, then create a truly happy union.

Air and Water they can also meet a lot of difficulties on their way, but such a marriage will make the Air "sink", adding to it prudence and prudence.

Air with Air they will be good friends, but the family is unlikely to be strong. Frivolity in family life does not lead to good, so one of the lovers will have to change their principles and character for the sake of such love.

Watermark Compatibility

Scorpios, Cancers and Pisces from the very beginning of their adult lives are looking for a place for mental and physical peace. "Water" people want to find solid ground under their feet, but they cannot come to this on their own. That is why they early years think about marriage and family. Their methods of testing a person's suitability for love and long-term relationships can be difficult and even cruel. They are incredibly demanding, but not to themselves, but to others.

FROM earth Water is easiest, because water seeps into the soil and becomes one with it. Water Signs are always respected and even admired by the Earth Signs, their stamina, wisdom, patience, intelligence and beauty of the soul. This is an ideal union for both one and the other, but even here it is not without reservations. They consist in the fact that Water Signs, when they feel a certain firmament under their feet, begin to relax and change. This frightens those who belong to the Earth element. For Water, everything is cloudless and beautiful.

Water and Water- this is dangerous mix. Can you imagine how two Scorpios will live together? These people are simply not made for each other, but not everything is so bad. Sometimes such families, on the contrary, become indestructible, successful and successful, but this will require tremendous work on both sides.

Water and Air don't fit together well, but over time the bond gets stronger. That is why the passion that flared up between two such people will persist for decades.

But Fire extinguished with water. In the case of such love or marriage, it is better to give Leo, Sagittarius or Aries more freedom.

Fire Sign Compatibility

Strangely enough, Sagittarius, Leo and Aries go well with all other people under certain conditions. Fire is emotion and sensuality. In love, these qualities can be considered the main ones.

Air Signs are lucky mascots for Fire people. The main thing is to show them their importance to you. They need to feel needed. If the Fire Signs can do this, then they will be very lucky in life, not only in love, but also in their careers.

FROM water It is better for fire not to meet if you do not know how to express your wishes and negotiate. It is better for Fire not to try to defeat the power of Water. Be restrained and build your strategy carefully.

Fire+Fire is something. Such unions almost never last long if there is no control in the relationship. It's like trying to drive a car flying down Mount Everest.

Fire Earth union is exactly what can give two people happiness. If you learn something important from each other, you will never part. Do not ignore what the Earth Sign says, then even some antics will be forgiven for you.

Earth Sign Compatibility

The earth is the firmness of the spirit. This is wisdom and incredible endurance. This is modesty, logic, kindness, as well as adherence to principles, bordering on cruelty. These people do not like to be deceived or commanded without their permission. They know how to admit mistakes, but they hate groundless reproaches.

The earth must control everything and be confident in the future. This desire is satisfied in alliance with water. However, when it comes to marriage, the Earth Signs stop - after all, their half was at first complaisant, and then suddenly became different.

FROM By air Virgo, Capricorn and Taurus have exactly 50/50 chances. Earth Signs the frivolity of the Airs often seems foolish and lacking in principles. They don't tolerate it. A little control doesn't hurt here.

Terrestrial+Earthly That's true power. The only thing that will suffer in this case is financial well-being. Such couples save and save and save, but they cannot properly invest because they are constantly afraid of something. However, this is not such a strong minus.

The last ones to be discussed are Fiery legion. They can be incredibly difficult for Virgo, Taurus and Capricorn to interact with. Here, unfortunately, everything will depend not on the Earth Signs. If Lions, Sagittarius and Aries can suppress selfishness in themselves and see the virtues of the Earth Signs, then this union will give both happiness.

May luck in love accompany you, regardless of what element you were born under. Love is born from the ability to go forward. The stars and astrology will help you save your own time if you are not ready to make concessions. If you are full of desire to find your true love, let her storm the barriers, fall down and fly up. Trials strengthen the family, so don't be afraid of them. Good luck and don't forget to press the buttons and

In astrology, all the signs of the Zodiac are divided into four elements of the elements according to the strength of their influence, in the understanding of ancient astrologers, the four elements correspond to the four basic concepts that characterize the manifestation of life:

  • space
  • time
  • Matter

Each of these concepts has its own 4 gradations and its own interpretation, despite some overlap with other divisions of the signs of the Zodiac. So, the zodiac is also divided into four periods according to the seasons (spring, summer, autumn, winter), quarters of the day (morning, noon, sunset, midnight), etc.

The elements of the zodiac signs influence the formation of temperament and the features of its manifestation. According to the teachings of the ancients about the 4 elements that determine the state of matter, the signs of the Zodiac were divided into Fire, Earth, Air and Water.

The element of Fire determines the Spirit, the element of Air - Space, the element of Water - Time, and the element of Earth - Matter. Thus, all 12 signs of the Zodiac have a strict regular connection in terms of the qualities of manifestation, the strength of which depends on the sign's belonging to a certain element and is repeated in the circle of the Zodiac every three signs. Each element forms a trine or three symbols of the signs of the Zodiac - a kind of triangle of relationships.

The names of the elements should not be taken literally in the sense that they mean by themselves, but should be treated as a philosophical symbol denoting a set of certain qualities.

Trigons are indicated in astrology by triangles with their tip (point) up - the Elements of Fire and Air or down - the Elements of Earth and Water, the Triangles of the Elements of Air and Water have a line in the middle, as if crossing the triangle.

Fire Release

The element of Fire is the trine of will. It includes Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. Under this Element, smart and energetic people, leaders, enthusiasts are born. They are carriers high energy. This is the temperament of the intellectual and the artist.

The ideal representative of this element is Aries, therefore, sometimes the element is referred to as the "element of Aries." According to the idea of ​​ancient astrologers, the pituitary gland has a great influence on the energy of Leo, therefore the release of its energy manifests itself “epileptiformly”, impulsively, violently, sweeping everything away. The Leo-Man cannot be teased, angered; however, in their face you can have both a strong enemy and true friend who you can rely on in difficult times. Sagittarius is attributed by the ancients to a mixed type or “biliary-hepatic” in manifestation (in the terminology of ancient astrologers), which predetermines him with strong tendencies towards authoritarianism (dictatorship).

The ancients believed that the element of Fire reflects inner burning, the eternal upward movement in development, the desire for self-improvement, the constant desire for manifestation, the desire for life. In Eastern philosophy, this Element reflects the powerful influence of the will of Heaven, cash (“self”), gives it vitality and increased survival.

The element of Fire is always individual, since the individuality of existence is the main life principle, and, according to ancient philosophers, “Fire helps to ascend from the Earth to the Sun of the energy of the human soul after his death” (for materials on incarnation and its calculation, see the corresponding chapter). It is believed that the element of Fire symbolizes the vital fire and the power of the growing seed, the energy of the Kundalini spirit, which directs the inner aspiration of the heart to Divine Wisdom, to the Cosmic Mind.

It is no coincidence that the vital energy that is inside every person has a huge energy incarnation in the form of a “fiery plasma”: fire burns the old, unnecessary and renews a person, reincarnates him. The image of fire underlies all creative processes, at the source of any activity (it is not for nothing that they say “burning at work”).

The extinction of cosmic fire in a person is associated with the weakening of his flesh: he begins to get sick more often and seriously, he is threatened with death, as his survival rate decreases. In spiritual terms, this is associated with the weakness of the spirit, the possible influence of "impure forces", the service of evil. The extinction of a living fire is a manifestation of the hidden death of an individual in whom there is nothing to awaken, and he can become a toy in the hands of representatives of the devilish world.

Not without reason in ancient times the cult of Fire was worshiped by many peoples of Europe, Asia and America. He was given great importance and in understanding the world. Through it, people got the opportunity to penetrate into the essence of the complexity of human relations with Nature, the Cosmos. It is no coincidence that many hymns are dedicated to the God of Fire in the ancient Indian Vedas. In the Avesta - in the sacred books of Zoroastrianism, the God of Fire was one of the main gods. He gave a person a spark for life, a particle of Divine Fire in the temple of the Spirit* of a person, awakening him to vigorous activity.

The ancients gave the following characteristics to each of the signs of the element of Fire:

  • Aries - pioneer, architect
  • Leo - organizer, generator of life
  • Sagittarius - builder, performer

earth element

The Earth element is a trine of action. Depicted as a triangle, pointing down and symbolizing the tip of a shovel, pick. This element includes Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo. The elements govern the birth of practical, cautious, punchy and respectable people who affirm traditions. A typical representative of the elements of the Earth is the Bull (Taurus), whose head symbolizes his image in the circle of the Zodiac. Virgo has a “thyroid dominant” (a tendency to increased activity of the thyroid gland), that is, she is characterized by rapid excitability, irritability.

The "pituitary" temperament is in Capricorn, whose thyroid function is more stable. The ancients attached great importance to the influence of the hormonal glands on human activity. So, one of the most important meridians along which the bioenergetics of the human body passes, they considered the meridian of the “triple heater” (“endocrine meridian”), which is used in acupuncture and modern medicine for correcting bioenergetics in the body, redistributing it between organs.

It is believed that the elements of the signs of the zodiac determine the behavior of a person. People belonging to different Elements, it is difficult to converge, often have many fundamental disagreements, quarrel over trifles. They often show "internal friction", a fundamental mismatch of views and tastes, since they are antipodes. Such a mismatch in children can lead to the search for new companies, partners. As adults, they create a family at the behest of "emotions and hearts", but later, at the behest of the mind, they often get divorced.

It should be remembered that the zodiac circle has a peculiarity - it observes the principle of duality, or polarity, the principle of complementing opposite principles (male yang and female yang), opposing forces. As you know, life develops through the struggle of opposites. Secrecy and strength coexist with openness and gentleness, cruelty with kindness, mercy.

In the zodiac circle, the polarities are clearly marked and alternate one after another: if Capricorn is a male sign, then Aquarius is female, Pisces is a Yang sign, Aries is Yin, Taurus is male, and Gemini is female, etc. From this it follows, that all the signs of the Zodiac with the masculine principle are the elements of Fire and Air (a triangle pointing upwards), and with the feminine - the elements of Earth and Water (a triangle pointing downwards). You should not be surprised that the Virgo falls masculinity, and on Leo - female, since this is only a philosophical symbol in astrology, and not a sign of gender. Beginnings have their own content, mobile power, energy essence.

Signs related to the elements of the Earth have other qualities. So, Capricorn belongs to the so-called "animal" signs, which also include Aries, Taurus, Leo, Sagittarius (from the second half of its action, since this sign is depicted as a half-man above and animals below), Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.

Virgo belongs to the "human" signs, as well as Gemini, Aquarius, Sagittarius (the first half of the sign), Libra.

All three signs of the Zodiac that belong to the elements of the Earth (these are Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo) and all three signs of the elements of Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) are nocturnal, “magnetic”, negative signs in astrological terms. The remaining six signs of the Zodiac, on the contrary, have alternative qualities in relation to those listed: they are daytime, "electric" and positive.

These signs are distinguished by special talents that can be successfully developed, since their owners are endowed with a "God's spark" from the nature of birth. So, Capricorn (like Aquarius) is inclined to philosophy, Virgo (and Libra) has a “pedagogical warehouse” mind, and Taurus has a musical talent, like the signs Gemini, Libra and Sagittarius.

Under the signs of Virgo, Gemini, Libra and Sagittarius (up to its first half), beautiful people are often born, and under the signs of Capricorn, Taurus and Cancer - with various deformities, anatomical defects.

If you carefully look at the circle of the Zodiac, you can see that the signs of the elements of Fire and Earth are antipodes in parts of the horoscope and are endowed with the corresponding content. Thus, the elements of Fire and Air have great internal energy, dynamism and mobility, adaptability. Despite their flexibility, the ability to adapt to external conditions, they almost do not succumb to other people's pressure (these people are stubborn, they rarely change their decisions). They themselves are able to influence the world around them, people.

All Yin (female) signs belonging to the elements of Earth and Water are more permanent and stable, enduring to external influences. For them, the spiritual world is very important (including in a partner, friend, colleague) and subjective concepts: family, home, friends, team, nation, state, country, homeland and their place of residence (especially the place of birth). However, they are also more susceptible to outside influences. They “hear” their partner better, they perceive him spiritually more subtle. They enjoy greater mutual understanding than the signs of the yang group.

The signs of the elements of the Earth carry a creative beginning, conceal inexhaustible riches of the soul, opportunities, like the planet Earth, which has an abundance of opportunities and treasures. According to Karma, which, according to the statements of astrologers and bioenergetics, controls a person, it follows: if he went through a previous life on a superficial, unkind or unspiritual path, his spirit during his subsequent incarnation (incarnation) is sent to feminine. The spirit of this person soars in time according to the signs of the Zodiac and the elements in order to incarnate again into the flesh and atone for past sins. Losing spiritual Karma, people of Yang signs in order to achieve their spiritual goal incarnate in the months of the signs of the Zodiac of the elements of Earth and Water. That is why, when calculating incarnation, it happens that a person born in this life turns out to be of the opposite sex, and this may indirectly indicate certain karmic debts that he will have to give in real life.

Those born under the signs of the elements of the Earth are characterized by such qualities as reliability, concreteness, high efficiency, diligence, perseverance and perseverance in achieving the goal. People of these signs are passionate natures: for noble purposes, they use all their strengths and capabilities, both spiritual and material. Often, out of gullibility, they fall into the traps of dishonorable people. They have reduced practicality, lack of selfishness, self-interest and cunning, which creates certain life difficulties.

High endurance and tolerance, however, help them find a way out of the most difficult situations. They remember grievances, but are usually generous, easy-going. In their feelings they are distinguished by constancy, attachment to people.

It is noteworthy that people born under the sign of the element Earth, it is difficult to get along with other people, although they make new contacts with a desire, since they are characterized by curiosity, emotionality and sensuality. Sometimes they are impulsive, temperamental in expressing feelings and thoughts. Often these are intellectuals who are complex, but very interesting in terms of spiritual content, and it is important to understand them in order to get the maximum benefit from communicating with them.

The karmic task of the people of the elements of Fire is usually struggle, active creativity, and for the people of the elements of the Earth - creation, strengthening of spirituality, intellectual positions, inner content and physical strength that influences it. They prefer the rhythm of action, so they like to plan their day - they should be encouraged in this. It is easier for them to show their abilities and realize themselves when the life around them has a clear structure, order, rhythm, somewhat coinciding with the biorhythm of their body.

According to the astrological characteristics, these signs of the elements of the Earth mean:

  • Taurus - creative perseverance, patience and strength
  • Virgo - thoroughness in the performance of work, their duties
  • Capricorn is a leader who takes responsibility

Air Release

The element of Air is the trigon of thinking, its symbol is a triangle, pointing upwards and crossed out in the middle with a horizontal line. This Element includes Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. The element governs the birth of thinking people, geniuses and individuals who are very susceptible to change, to everything new.

According to the ancient philosophers, in terms of its elements, the element of Air is close to the element of Fire (therefore, their designation symbols are similar - triangles, the tops of which are directed upwards): both carry an active principle, entrain, set in motion. But their difference is that the element of Fire has a constant activity, a directed action, and the element of Air has a variable, inconstant activity in direction and strength. Such people often change their mood dramatically, for no apparent reason. After sleep, when most people feel rested, full of energy, carriers of signs of Air are irritable, especially Libra. Such people can do you good, and after a while they can hurt you. They often grab onto several incompatible cases, scatter: without finishing one, they grab onto another. It is useless to re-educate, reproach these people - such is their astrological nature.

The element of Air is in constant motion in relation to the all-encompassing space (since its symbol is Space). The manifestation of the action of this element depends on the specific situation. It transmits ideas and thoughts, connects people with each other and with their past, present and future - with the space of time. In the human body, the Element connects the work of the lungs and the movement of blood into one whole, saturating the latter with oxygen necessary for combustion, to release energy (proximity to the element of Fire).

The element of Air makes contacts at different levels, joins various, sometimes opposite ideas and the people who create them. This element is of great importance for the production activity of a person, for the realization of his business qualities and for obtaining quality products. The element of Air is a connecting principle, personifies contact, connection, induction in society.

The element of Air also has common features with the element of Water - both are considered mobile, unsteady, changeable.

The symbolism of the signs of the Zodiac themselves in the group of the elements of Air is not accidental: Gemini is designated as a symbol of the union of a man and a woman; Scales are depicted as a woman holding scales in her hands; and Aquarius - the image of a man. The ancient sages thus emphasized that the element of Air contributes to the manifestation of the basic qualities of a person: the ability for spiritual communication and mutual enrichment, the internal development of the individual, sociability, the desire for mutual understanding in the family, society, social environment, country. Thus, the element of Air contributes to the erasure of caste and class boundaries, switching attention, adaptation to various conditions, to the mutual satisfaction of requirements.

People of these zodiac signs are in constant search. They are drawn to novelty. It is difficult for them to perform the same, not creative work, which depresses and overworks them, restrains the initiative and the manifestation of their best qualities. Diplomats and politicians are born under this sign. They are best used for relevant activities in which they can be realized, show their abilities within the framework of carrying out the main idea, work. They need control, but it should not be intrusive or humiliating.

The signs of the element of Air are associated with Spirit, with Divine Breath. The ancients believed that people of this element draw ideas from the air (according to Eastern philosophy and the doctrine of the elements, “ideas are in the air”, and bioenergy confirms that the energy of thought can be transmitted at a distance). They can be carried away by abstract ideas, be mistaken and stubborn in their views, despite the fact that life will repeatedly refute them. Relatives and relatives can find it very difficult with these people.

People of the signs of the elements of Air have a great influence on the development of society, which adopted the slogan put forward during the French Revolution: "Liberty, equality, fraternity." In astrology, freedom is symbolized by Aquarius, equality by Libra, brotherhood by Gemini. The signs of this Element also determine the main position of forces on Earth, the cultural, political and other relationships between the leading countries of the world: Russia is under the auspices of Aquarius, the development of England takes place under the sign of Libra, the USA is patronized by Gemini.

According to the astrological characteristics of the element of Air:

  • Aquarius is a man, father, freedom
  • Libra - woman, mother, equality
  • Gemini - symbolize children, brotherhood, unity

Water Release

The element of Water is a trigon of feelings, the symbol is a triangle pointing downwards, crossed out in the middle with a horizontal line. This element includes Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. The element governs the birth of emotional, very intelligent people with a well-developed sense of the subconscious, intuition.

Cosmological myths and ancient wisdom reflect "the embodiment of the Living Cosmos in the waters of the oceans." The image of Pisces symbolizes the embodiment of life itself on Earth. Water is a cosmic material principle, it has always symbolized the beginning of life, the earthly world. Therefore, water has always been held in high esteem, and the ancients worshiped it.

Astrologers believe that the element of Water is also associated with Karma. Each incarnation is the result of past earthly and planetary life. A lot of valuable information can be given to a person by his personal horoscope: it is “the passport of incarnation, shows where the soul of a person has been”, you just need to be able to read it astrological signs. All signs of the horoscope are karmic, but it manifests itself most strongly in the signs of the elements of Water - Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.

People of these signs always remember or subconsciously feel their past lives. They often have burdened Karma. What explains this? Pisces, which are the most characteristic representatives of the Element of Water as a sign of the Zodiac, carry the key to the puzzle. This sign is the last in the circle of the Zodiac and completes its cycle. The souls of incarnates go through the last stage of their reincarnation, they get the opportunity to materialize in life on Earth. According to the square of the division of the sectors of the Zodiac circle into the elements and according to the periods of human ages - this is the period of Old Age, the weakening of perception by the human body Space Force, which affects the fate of people born under these signs: they are inherent in suffering, sacrificing themselves, experiencing tolerance and seemingly random (but karmic!) life failures, overcoming them. Not understanding the meaning of the suffering that has befallen them, some people of these signs go into masochism, self-torture. They themselves create trouble for themselves, underestimate events, as they say, "seeking adventure." But only when they overcome difficulties does their karmic healing come.

The signs of the elements of Water are associated with emotional Karma, with the consequences that resulted from the unbridledness of one's own emotions and feelings in a past life. According to Karma, all the troubles that the man of the element of Water brought to people in a past life, their experiences, torments, emotional upheavals should pass on to him in this life - he must now experience all these sorrows himself. During incarnation, as the ancient astrologers assured, the Great Justice of the Cosmos is observed: to each according to his merits.

For example, it is believed that if in a past life a child tormented parents with whims and deliberate bullying, the unseemliness of which he realized with age, then in this life he himself will become a parent who will have a child, a copy of himself in the past. If in a past life he was a slave to his erotic hobbies, as a young man or adult he was fed up with love and betrayal, then in his present incarnation he must experience the fate of the victim or the person to whom he caused a lot of trouble. If in a past life he was a drunkard, then in this life he can become a woman who will marry a drunkard and will herself suffer, not being able to free herself; the latter can also affect the child: born a child of a drunkard father, most likely physically or mentally handicapped, he and his parents will know all the suffering. If in a past life his actions were distinguished by sadism, then in this life he will be born a person who will experience the same actions from another person.

People of the element of Water are distinguished by high emotional susceptibility, they subtly feel those around them, they feel well the frequency signals of the Cosmos. The symbol of the element is a triangle turned upside down, crossed out by a horizontal line, reminiscent of the image of a glass filled up to half with energy liquid. People of this element have good occult, meditation and other abilities that connect a person with the other world. On the other hand, in comparison with the signs of other Elements, they are more immersed in the world of their own experiences. Emotional connections are more important for them than business ones. They are distinguished by greater constancy in their feelings. At the same time, they are not only emotional, but also impulsive, sometimes capable of rash acts: at the beginning they do, and then analyze what has happened.

Such personalities are also endowed with great survival and resistance to the onslaught of life storms. The mighty life force of their symbol of water helps them, the ancients believed, to relatively quickly restore the Cosmic energy perceived by the body and get back on their feet after crushing defeats. People of these signs have the ability to accumulate huge potential forces for future development.

Astrological characteristics of the signs of the elements:

  • Cancer - intuition, development of feelings
  • Scorpio - it is characterized by a concentration of feelings and emotions
  • Pisces - the transformation of their feelings and suffering into spiritual strength

Astrological knowledge of Karma, Fates give a person the opportunity to be more tolerant of the inevitable difficulties in life, failures and defeats. From philosophical and astrological positions, they should be perceived as given to man a test that he must overcome, and not panic, do not give up, do not torment himself with remorse, which could be otherwise, "if only, if only ...".

According to the doctrine of Karma, one should show character and overcome the difficulties that have arisen to the best of one's ability, endure them steadfastly. Apparently that's why there are "lucky" and "unlucky" people. The “unlucky” are still unlucky, although they seem to try no less than the “lucky” ones and do the same thing as them.

The first mention of the location of stars and planets in the sky and their influence on people's lives dates back to the 5th millennium BC. e. They were interested in Mesopotamia and Egypt, but the ancient Greeks gave the names of the zodiac signs known to us, linking them with the myths and exploits of the legendary Hercules. The signs of the zodiac according to the elements were also divided by them.

Many generations of sages and astrologers have been looking for a connection between the date of birth of a person and the main features of his character. Their works often replaced oracle predictions, accurately describing how people can act in different situations, and events related to the position of the stars in a person's life.

Chinese scientists became the founders of the structuring of the signs of the zodiac according to the elements. Based on similar qualities of character, they came up with the idea of ​​dividing them into four groups, associating them with metal, air, earth and water.

In the very first astrological treatises, the fifth element was present, but it stood out from the general series, and subsequently it was abandoned.

The signs of the zodiac, belonging to the same element, did not follow one after another, but alternated at intervals of about three months. Thus, 12 signs were first divided into four main groups.

The Greeks improved the system by replacing metal with fire. In their opinion, the explosive temperament of the representatives of this element was more consistent with an unpredictable flame, easily turning into a fire and a natural disaster.

Main groups

The signs of the zodiac and the elements give detailed description internal state person and their interactions with others. Knowing the date of birth of a relative or friend and understanding the horoscope, one can foresee their actions and reactions to various incidents. The main signs of different elements are described in detail, but for the sake of completeness, it is better to study the features inherent in the zodiac sign.

The three signs of the zodiac belong to the earth element: Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo. Their similar qualities and characteristics:

  • reliability;
  • craving for material goods;
  • stubbornness.

Representatives of this element rarely commit rash acts, it is important for them to have a strong rear, Good work and stability in all areas of life.

Capricorn does not have a rich imagination, but he is persistent and stubborn in any endeavors. He is characterized by the desire to occupy a high position in society, while Capricorn is not picky about means. Heartlessness and composure are often the main components of his career success. However, he is able to become a true friend and support in a difficult situation.

Of the three signs, Taurus is the most prone to hoarding and love of luxury. He is patient, but it is worth seriously angering him, and the offender will get it in full. Taurus take care of the family and dream that the house is cozy, and delicious dishes are always waiting for them in the kitchen.

Virgo has one trait that creates problems in communicating and building a long relationship with her. At first, she idealizes a new acquaintance, and then quickly becomes disillusioned with him. If she manages to overcome maximalism, best friend than Virgo, not to be found. She loves to go shopping, where she chooses clothes with taste. She is characterized by sophistication and sensitivity.

Aries, Leo and Sagittarius will not let others get bored. They are generators of all sorts of plans and ideas. Fire signs according to the horoscope are distinguished by:

  • passion for travel;
  • self-esteem;
  • excess energy.

Representatives of the element of Fire are capable of grand gestures, which, over time, they regret more than once. They need to constantly discover something new, for which they go on long trips.

Aries does not tolerate when they contradict him, and will always passionately defend his point of view. Possessing strong character, he does not aspire to become a boss, rather, he wants to get a decent and exciting job related to business trips. He is a faithful family man and loves children, whom he will instruct and guide in accordance with his views.

The lion behaves regally and proudly. He will never do anything to the detriment of his person. People who do not recognize his superiority, he avoids. Leo reflects the element of Fire, giving the sign of the zodiac generosity and independence. He treats the mistakes of those around him condescendingly, considering it beneath his dignity to even point them out.

The main fidget in this trio is Sagittarius. Usually during his life he changes several houses, and often countries. He doesn't feel comfortable getting into a routine. Extraordinary actions distinguish Sagittarius in any society. His clothing style is also eccentric and flashy.

Water Group

Sensitive, emotional Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio are in many ways strikingly different from each other, although they belong to the same element. Their most common manifestations are:

  • compassion and empathy;
  • flexibility in communication;
  • need for approval.

Pisces are very artistic and easily get acquainted with the most different people. They are interested in views on life that differ from their own, they are not stubborn and are able to recognize the correctness of their opponent. Artists and poets are often Pisces according to the horoscope, since this zodiac has the most developed susceptibility to emotions and beauty.

Subtly feeling, always doubting Cancer is attached to loved ones and reacts to any changes in their mood. He cannot remain alone for a moment. He needs support and a strong shoulder all the time. Crayfish are well versed in fashion trends, although they themselves prefer noble antiquity and classic outfits.

Scorpio is a sign of conflicting passions. He has a hypnotic gaze and a bewitching smile. Despite the seeming brutality and self-confidence, Scorpio painfully experiences any mistake or injustice in his soul. He begins to sting those who offended him with caustic words, and he is able to give the last thing he has to real friends.

The air element includes such zodiac signs as Aquarius, Gemini and Libra. They have:

  • passion for superficial knowledge;
  • frequent mood swings and inconstancy;
  • impatience.

Aquarius loves equality in friendship and communication and does not try to stick to traditions. He likes more innovative ideas. He is very responsive and would like to help the whole world, so acquaintances often use this quality. However, Aquarius himself is not averse to manipulating people from time to time.

The twins are constantly moving, not staying in one place for a long time and with one person. For grace and charm, others forgive them for windiness. Geminis tell fascinating stories, but they don't like to listen to others. Their notebook is filled with phone numbers and names of people whom this zodiac sign considers his friends and remembers about them at the right time.

Irresistible and gallant Libra does not leave indifferent representatives of the opposite sex. Many consider them ideal partners and do not want to share with anyone. However, Libra needs access to theaters and exhibitions, they are not ready to sit within four walls even with their beloved. They extinguish any quarrel before it flared up, and try to say nice things to people.

Knowing which element a person's zodiac sign belongs to, it is easier to find common ground and understand the motives of his behavior.

The most dangerous is the union of Water and Fire, the participants of which are capable of driving each other into a frenzy with a single word. Moreover, the signs of Water do not always show softness and friendliness in order to extinguish the anger of a fiery partner. Rather, they resemble a waterfall quickly rushing down the mountain, trying to win the argument.

All signs of the zodiac would like to get along with representatives of the elements of Air. Cheerful and cheerful, they conquer with spontaneity and funny ideas. However air signs they are not ready to endure everyday life and too tight control, so the Air-Earth relationship is difficult.

Feelings of the Air-Fire couple flare up quickly, but usually they are short-lived.

In the presence of wisdom and desire to be together, any combination of elements and signs of the zodiac is acceptable. Small concessions and patience will benefit every alliance.

Conclusion

Astrology has been a sought-after field of activity for thousands of years, and drawing up a natal chart in some countries was considered a prerequisite for marriage or organizing a joint business. The zodiacal prediction has too often turned out to be correct, even in the case of inexplicable at the time of making the predictions.

It must be remembered that belonging to a particular zodiac sign determines the position of the Sun. At the same time, other planets can be in any of the 12 houses, as they are called by astrologers.

Even people of the same zodiac sign have different features precisely because of the complex schedule of the planets. In any case, the study of the belonging of a person's zodiac sign to a certain element will eliminate misses and find interesting topics for communication.

All zodiac signs can be divided into four groups according to the elements: Fire, Water, Earth and Air. It is on this basis that one can determine the temperament and stable qualities of each representative of the zodiac circle. From this point of view, water signs can be called changeable and dynamic, air - mobile and contact, fire - sparkling and temperamental, and earth - solid and stable. We will talk about the characteristic features of the representatives of each of the above elements and their compatibility in this article.

Characteristics of fire signs

Fire Signs have a truly fiery temperament. The peculiarity of this element is warmth and dryness, personifying metaphysical energy, life and its strength. In the Zodiac, there are three signs that meet these qualities: Sagittarius, Aries and Leo. They have an inexhaustible creative spirit, unshakable will and extraordinary penetrating power. In addition, the element of Fire gives them enterprise, a constant thirst for activity and organizational talent. They defend their independence, independence and personal freedom from childhood. It is interesting that they do not know how and do not like to obey, but they can adapt to almost any conditions. flexible mind, strong will, creativity to difficult life situations allow them to cope with any problem.

People whose horoscopes are dominated by the element of Fire are extremely ambitious. They are quick-tempered, impetuous, courageous, self-confident, courageous, warlike, careless, impatient and unceremonious. They love and know how to lead. The business activity inherent in them and the flight of the soul help them to reach serious peaks both in the material and spiritual spheres. They get genuine pleasure from their work, are proud of their own successes and expect universal recognition.

archers

The signs of the fire of the zodiac vary somewhat by month. For example, the character of Sagittarius differs from the explosive temperament of Aries and Leo. His fire does not burn, but seems to smolder peacefully under the ashes. This is the flame of inner passions, securely hidden from prying eyes. Sagittarians have another characteristic feature: like their element, they are uncontrollable. Like fire, they are easily transferred from one object to another and never look back. For them, the most important thing is adventure and action. They are always full of enthusiasm and often go beyond their own capabilities. Representatives of other zodiac signs can keep their energy under control.

Sagittarius Compatibility

Sagittarius is a fire sign, so they attract the attention of people around them with their ability to have fun, curiosity, spirituality and good disposition. However, not everyone can get along with them. For example, the signs of Fire and Earth contradict each other in everything. Cautious Taurus, fisted Capricorn and pedantic Virgo can cause a strong attack of irritation in freedom-loving Sagittarius. And the signs of water (Pisces, Scorpions and Cancers) require constancy and reliability from their partners. But any bonds are a serious test for Sagittarius, so he will try his best to avoid them. Representatives of this sign are close to the fire and air elements. Gemini, Libra and Aquarius are not jealous and love a variety of adventures. They will make an excellent company for Sagittarius in any endeavors. And Lions and Aries have a similar temperament and powerful vitality. They will quickly find mutual understanding with the representative of this zodiac sign and make his life happy.

a lion

The signs of the Fire of the Zodiac do not suffer from modesty and strive to make themselves known to the whole world. This quality is especially evident in Leo. In their horoscope, the Sun dominates - the planet, thanks to which all life on Earth appeared. Perhaps that is why the representatives of the "solar" sign consider themselves absolutely irreplaceable and refuse to play second fiddle in any situation. Their fearlessness and strength could be the source of many troubles for them, but they are smart enough to avoid them. With their courage, they win the sincere sympathy of others. They are fair and want to see everyone around them happy. However, their own person is always in the first place for them.

Leo Compatibility

Leos are very attractive and are of interest to all signs of the zodiac. However, find mutual language with them is not as easy as it seems at first glance. For example, many claims to each other have the signs of Fire and Water. The compatibility of these two elements is a big question, because Pisces, Scorpios and Cancers prefer stability and require maximum dedication from partners, while Leo will not subordinate his life to the interests of the second half. He is too proud and independent for that. It is also difficult for people whose horoscopes are dominated by the element of the Earth to find the key to the representatives of the "solar" sign. Capricorn, Virgo and Taurus are too predictable and stable. Leo's extravagance annoys them, and extravagance makes them think about choosing a more practical partner. Representatives of the fire and air elements are the most suitable companions for Leo. Aries and Sagittarius will give up their leadership for the sake of the "sunny" lover and make his life truly beautiful. And Gemini, Libra and Aquarius are able to inspire representatives of the "royal" sign to new exploits and endlessly admire his strong and generous nature.

Aries

Fire Signs are aggressive and courageous people. If necessary, they are able to mobilize all their internal forces and fully equipped to meet an opponent, while having remarkable chances of success. All of the above is fully consistent with the character of Aries. Representatives of this sign are able to defend their interests, while possessing extreme egocentrism. They are straightforward, in disputes they fiercely prove their point of view, but they never cause rejection among people, as they have a rare charm. Aries are real hard workers. As a rule, they achieve success in their careers. However, they have one drawback. Boldly taking on the implementation of another idea, they are practically unable to bring it to the end.

Aries Compatibility

Water and Fire signs are attracted to each other. This fact is clearly visible in the Aries horoscope. They get along well with Pisces and help them overcome shyness, charm Cancers, find a common language with Scorpios. However, the initial infatuation sometimes ends in bitter disappointment. Too little in common between these two elements. Therefore, in order to get along in a long and happy marriage, representatives of these zodiac signs will have to work on themselves and overcome a serious difference in temperaments.

Of all the representatives of the air element, Aries are most inclined to communicate with Gemini. The pressure from the former will be completely offset by the ingenuity of the latter. But with Libra and Aquarius, more complicated relationship. Aries will have to use all their tact in order to keep representatives of these zodiac signs near them.

Aries do not interact well with the earth element. At first they may be fascinated by the restraint of Virgo, the consistency of Capricorn, the confidence of Taurus, but insoluble contradictions in the characters will quickly make themselves felt. The signs of Fire and Earth are opposite in nature.

Representatives of the fire element will worthy partners for Aries. However, fierce competition in this case cannot be avoided. Lions and Sagittarius will never give up their positions and will not give way to their beloved. But this competition will give partners real pleasure.

Earth element signs

If the Fire signs welcome changes in their lives, then the Earth signs prefer stability in everything. They are characterized by patience, reliability, practicality, rigor and confidence. People of the elements of the Earth have a melancholic temperament and rare endurance. Often, at an early age, they set a goal for themselves and consistently achieve it throughout their lives. At the same time, they usually prefer the path of least resistance, but if necessary, they can mobilize all their forces and overcome a serious obstacle. Creation material assets is the main occupation in the lives of people in whose horoscopes the elements of the Earth are expressed. They are very practical, but hard to adapt to new living conditions. That is why they do not like to change their place of residence and are very attached to their work and home. Consistency often brings Capricorn, Virgo and Taurus the desired success.

Earth Sign Compatibility

The signs of the Fire of the Zodiac are not always pleasant to people of the elements of the Earth. Of course, they need warmth. However, with intense interaction of these two elements, friction can occur. Hot earth, as you know, turns into a hot desert. That's why happy marriage between representatives of these two elements rarely develops.

But water signs get along well with earth signs. For example, Pisces and Scorpios can make an excellent match for Capricorns. Unless they have no prospects with Cancers. And the desire of the Virgins to patronize and control everyone will resonate in the hearts of Scorpios and Cancers. However, they will not be able to find a common language with Pisces. Taurus also gets along well with representatives of the elements of Water. He can make Cancers happy, get along with Pisces, but he will fight for the palm with Scorpio all his life.

Air signs can irritate Earth signs with their fickle and changeable dispositions, but some relaxation is also necessary for these consistent bores. That is why a long-term relationship may arise between representatives of these elements, but marriage is unlikely.

Earth signs interact best with each other. Taurus will always find an approach to Capricorn, Virgo or Taurus, because in addition to love and friendship, he will be able to offer them a long and successful cooperation.

Air Signs

Representatives of the air element are responsible for contacts and relationships. They are endowed with mobility, liveliness, changeability, flexibility, agility and curiosity. Gemini, Libra and Aquarius know how to impress the people around them with their intelligence and rare quick wit. They instantly grasp the information and pass it on to others in their own processed form. Then the signs of Fire, Water, Earth and Air, if they are in the same team, will unite together to solve this or that problem. Of course, one of the signs of Air will give a brilliant idea, leaving its implementation to representatives of other elements. However, he will not stand aside either - he will inspire his partners to carry out the event until the last minute.

Air signs are recognized diplomats. In addition, they can brilliantly prove themselves in science, art and journalism. Talented, bright, sparkling, they attract the attention of all representatives of the zodiac circle. But getting along with them is not easy.

Air signs compatibility

The signs of Air and Fire can create an excellent tandem, in which the first will effectively inspire the second to great achievements. Such an alliance may seem very successful from the outside. However, partners are able to quickly cool off towards each other. The reason may be the excessive assertiveness of the signs of Fire. Actively feeding on the air element, they are able to get carried away and go beyond all boundaries. And pressure, control and constant criticism are extremely undesirable for Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. They prefer freedom in everything, therefore, most likely, they will leave their "fiery" partner. The signs of Fire according to the horoscope, in turn, do not tolerate inconstancy. The very first attack of jealousy will make them think about the expediency of a relationship with their unreliable partner. The breakup can be very painful. What signs of Fire are able to come to terms with the variability of the air element? Only the most devoted and in love! They will be able to tame their soulmate to perseverance and constancy.

The signs of Fire and Air, the compatibility of which was discussed above, are, in fact, antagonistic to each other. And how are things with other representatives of the zodiac circle?

The stable and consistent Earth signs will be resented by the extravagance and superficiality of the Air signs. This tandem can be extremely unsuccessful. The air, of course, is able to spread the seeds that will subsequently fertilize the Earth, but it is also able to raise thick clouds of dust, in which each of the partners will be very uncomfortable. However, everything is not so bad. Incredibly, the signs of Earth and Air also have common features. They are united by a sober and logical mindset. The brilliant intellect of the representatives of the air element and the organizational talents of the earth element can be successfully combined into a fruitful union.

At first, the signs of Water and Air have a very reverent and tender relationship. However, people whose horoscopes are dominated by the water element need attention, stability and boundless devotion. The inconstancy of Gemini, Libra and Aquarius can hurt them greatly.

Best of all, Air signs get along with each other. They are very romantic, and physical intimacy is not the main thing for them. Therefore, the relationship between them will be slightly literary, built on fantasies and experiences. In addition, representatives of this element are not jealous. They can part for a long time, but with mutual trust they will unite again, creating an ideal union that all the people around will admire.

Signs of the element of Water

People whose horoscopes are dominated by Water are rich inner world. For all their external inconstancy, they are extremely stable in their addictions. They are characterized by dreaminess, softness, uncertainty and indecision. They are not able to express their feelings as vividly as other signs of the zodiac. However, their inner experiences are very deep and rich.

There are many successful musicians and artists among the representatives of the water element. They can also excel in areas related to service and catering. And Scorpios, for example, are able to become excellent detectives and investigators.

Water Element Compatibility

The signs of Water are drawn to the representatives of their native element on a subconscious level. They understand each other perfectly, respect the partner's personal space and safely avoid mutual insults. The most successful couples between representatives of the water element are Scorpio and Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio, Pisces and Cancer.

Good partners for people of the Water trine will be the signs of the Earth. Any couple consisting of representatives of these elements has a high chance of building a long and fruitful relationship. They can create a strong family and live in it happily ever after. Rare exceptions are due, as a rule, to the personal individual qualities of partners.

Between the signs of Air and Water, everything is much more complicated. They are incredibly easy to converge with each other and are on the same wavelength for some time, but then their relationship also rapidly cools down. Passionate and bright love may arise between them, but a beautiful romance is unlikely to end in a happy marriage.

The signs of Fire according to the horoscope, despite their different temperaments, are able to awaken deep passion in their "water" partners. The representatives of these elements have completely different approach to life. If Pisces, Cancers and Scorpios weigh their every step, then Lions, Sagittarius and Aries get carried away without looking back and just as quickly cool off. However, if the partners take a closer look at each other, they will understand that their relationship has prospects. The signs of Fire, whose compatibility is ambiguous, will certainly appreciate the originality of the judgments of the representatives of the water element, and they, in turn, will be imbued with the ardor and passion of Leo, Sagittarius or Aries. So, subject to mutual respect and tolerance, this union has a great chance of success.

Conclusion

The signs of Water, Fire, Earth and Air have different compatibility. Much depends not only on which element dominates in their horoscopes, but also on the personal qualities of each specific person. However, inexorable statistics suggests that representatives of different elements still have certain preferences. For example, most women trying to find their soul mate on the Internet are Air and Fire signs. Why are Leos, Sagittarius, Aries, Libra, Aquarius, Gemini looking for their happiness on dating sites? It's simple, because they easily converge with representatives of the same elements, who are also not averse to meeting on the Internet. However, some representatives of these signs are not at all inclined to long-term relationships (Gemini, Sagittarius), sometimes spoiled and capricious (Aries, Lions), and very picky (Libra, Aquarius). So it turns out that the second part of the male population (signs of Earth and Water) practically does not intersect with girls of other elements. Representatives of the fire and air elements consider them boring bores, incapable of great feelings. But in vain! They make the best spouses. Often the signs of Fire in the horoscope (as well as Air) do not guarantee strong family happiness. Therefore, we encourage girls to pay more attention to representatives of the signs of Water and Earth. They can also be very interesting partners and interlocutors.

In astrology, all the signs of the Zodiac are divided into four elements of the elements according to the strength of their influence. In the understanding of the ancient astrologers, the four elements correspond to the four basic concepts that characterize the manifestation of life: Spirit, Space, Time and Matter. Each of these concepts has its own 4 gradations and its own interpretation, despite some overlap with other divisions of the signs of the Zodiac. So, the zodiac is also divided into four periods according to the seasons (spring, summer, autumn, winter), quarters of the day (morning, noon, sunset, midnight), etc.

The elements of the zodiac signs influence the formation of temperament and the features of its manifestation. According to the teachings of the ancients about the 4 elements that determine the state of matter, the signs of the Zodiac were divided into Fire, Earth, Air and Water.

The element of Fire determines the Spirit, the element of Air - Space, the element of Water - Time, and the element of Earth - Matter. Thus, all 12 signs of the Zodiac have a strict regular connection in terms of the qualities of manifestation, the strength of which depends on the sign's belonging to a certain element and is repeated in the circle of the Zodiac every three signs. Each element forms a trine or three symbols of the signs of the Zodiac - a kind of triangle of relationships.

The names of the elements should not be taken literally in the sense that they mean by themselves, but should be treated as a philosophical symbol denoting a set of certain qualities.

Trigons are indicated in astrology by triangles with their tip (point) up - the Elements of Fire and Air or down - the Elements of Earth and Water, the Triangles of the Elements of Air and Water have a line in the middle, as if crossing the triangle.

Fire Release

Fire Release is the trigon of will. Aries, Leo and Sagittarius belong to it. Under this Element, smart and energetic people, leaders, enthusiasts are born. They are carriers of high energy. This is the temperament of the intellectual and the artist.

The ideal representative of this element is Aries, therefore, sometimes the element is referred to as the "element of Aries." According to the idea of ​​ancient astrologers, the pituitary gland has a great influence on the energy of Leo, therefore the release of its energy manifests itself “epileptiformly”, impulsively, violently, sweeping everything away. The Leo-Man cannot be teased, angered; however, in their person you can have both a strong enemy and a true friend, on whom you can rely on in difficult times. Sagittarius is attributed by the ancients to a mixed type or “biliary-hepatic” in manifestation (in the terminology of ancient astrologers), which predetermines him with strong tendencies towards authoritarianism (dictatorship).

The ancients believed that the element of Fire reflects inner burning, the eternal upward movement in development, the desire for self-improvement, the constant desire for manifestation, the desire for life. In Eastern philosophy, this Element reflects the powerful influence of the will of Heaven, cash (“self”), gives it vitality and increased survival.

The element of Fire is always individual, since the individuality of existence is the main life principle, and, according to ancient philosophers, “Fire helps to ascend from the Earth to the Sun of the energy of the human soul after his death” (for materials on incarnation and its calculation, see the corresponding chapter). It is believed that the element of Fire symbolizes the vital fire and the power of the growing seed, the energy of the Kundalini spirit, which directs the inner aspiration of the heart to Divine Wisdom, to the Cosmic Mind.

It is no coincidence that the vital energy that is inside every person has a huge energy incarnation in the form of a “fiery plasma”: fire burns the old, unnecessary and renews a person, reincarnates him. The image of fire underlies all creative processes, at the source of any activity (it is not for nothing that they say “burning at work”).

The extinction of cosmic fire in a person is associated with the weakening of his flesh: he begins to get sick more often and seriously, he is threatened with death, as his survival rate decreases. In spiritual terms, this is associated with the weakness of the spirit, the possible influence of "impure forces", the service of evil. The extinction of a living fire is a manifestation of the hidden death of an individual in whom there is nothing to awaken, and he can become a toy in the hands of representatives of the devilish world.

Not without reason in ancient times the cult of Fire was worshiped by many peoples of Europe, Asia and America. He was given great importance in the knowledge of the world. Through it, people got the opportunity to penetrate into the essence of the complexity of human relations with Nature, the Cosmos. It is no coincidence that many hymns are dedicated to the God of Fire in the ancient Indian Vedas. In the Avesta - in the sacred books of Zoroastrianism, the God of Fire was one of the main gods. He gave a person a spark for life, a particle of Divine Fire in the temple of the Spirit* of a person, awakening him to vigorous activity.

The ancients gave following characteristic each of the signs of the element of Fire:

  • Aries- pioneer, architect;
  • a lion- organizer, generator of life;
  • Sagittarius- builder, performer.

earth element

The Earth element is a trine of action. Depicted as a triangle, pointing down and symbolizing the tip of a shovel, pick. This element includes Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo. The elements govern the birth of practical, cautious, punchy and respectable people who affirm traditions. A typical representative of the elements of the Earth is the Bull (Taurus), whose head symbolizes his image in the circle of the Zodiac. Virgo has a “thyroid dominant” (a tendency to increased activity of the thyroid gland), that is, she is characterized by rapid excitability, irritability.

The "pituitary" temperament is in Capricorn, whose thyroid function is more stable. The ancients attached great importance to the influence of the hormonal glands on human activity. So, one of the most important meridians along which the bioenergetics of the human body passes, they considered the meridian of the “triple heater” (“endocrine meridian”), which is used in acupuncture and modern medicine for correcting bioenergetics in the body, redistributing it between organs.

It is believed that the elements of the signs of the zodiac determine the behavior of a person. People belonging to different Elements find it difficult to converge, often have many fundamental disagreements, and quarrel over trifles. They often show "internal friction", a fundamental mismatch of views and tastes, since they are antipodes. Such a mismatch in children can lead to the search for new companies, partners. As adults, they create a family at the behest of "emotions and hearts", but later, at the behest of the mind, they often get divorced.

It should be remembered that the zodiac circle has a peculiarity - it observes the principle of duality, or polarity, the principle of complementing opposite principles (male yang and female yang), opposing forces. As you know, life develops through the struggle of opposites. Secrecy and strength coexist with openness and gentleness, cruelty with kindness, mercy.

In the zodiac circle, the polarities are clearly marked and alternate one after another: if Capricorn is a male sign, then Aquarius is female, Pisces is a Yang sign, Aries is Yin, Taurus is male, and Gemini is female, etc. From this it follows, that all the signs of the Zodiac with the masculine principle are the elements of Fire and Air (a triangle pointing upwards), and with the feminine - the elements of Earth and Water (a triangle pointing downwards). One should not be surprised that the masculine principle falls on Virgo, and the feminine on Leo, since this is only a philosophical symbol in astrology, and not a sign of gender. Beginnings have their own content, mobile power, energy essence.

Signs related to the elements of the Earth have other qualities. So, Capricorn belongs to the so-called "animal" signs, which also include Aries, Taurus, Leo, Sagittarius (from the second half of its action, since this sign is depicted as a half-man above and animals below), Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.

Virgo belongs to the "human" signs, as well as Gemini, Aquarius, Sagittarius (the first half of the sign), Libra.

All three signs of the Zodiac that belong to the elements of the Earth (these are Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo) and all three signs of the elements of Water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) are nocturnal, “magnetic”, negative signs in astrological terms. The remaining six signs of the Zodiac, on the contrary, have alternative qualities in relation to those listed: they are daytime, "electric" and positive.

These signs are distinguished by special talents that can be successfully developed, since their owners are endowed with a "God's spark" from the nature of birth. So, Capricorn (like Aquarius) is inclined to philosophy, Virgo (and Libra) has a “pedagogical warehouse” mind, and Taurus has a musical talent, like the signs Gemini, Libra and Sagittarius.

Under the signs of Virgo, Gemini, Libra and Sagittarius (up to its first half), beautiful people are often born, and under the signs of Capricorn, Taurus and Cancer - with various deformities, anatomical defects.

If you carefully look at the circle of the Zodiac, you can see that the signs of the elements of Fire and Earth are antipodes in parts of the horoscope and are endowed with the corresponding content. Thus, the elements of Fire and Air have great internal energy, dynamism and mobility, adaptability. Despite their flexibility, the ability to adapt to external conditions, they almost do not succumb to other people's pressure (these people are stubborn, they rarely change their decisions). They themselves are able to influence the world around them, people.

All Yin (female) signs belonging to the elements of Earth and Water are more permanent and stable, enduring to external influences. For them, the spiritual world is very important (including in a partner, friend, colleague) and subjective concepts: family, home, friends, team, nation, state, country, homeland and their place of residence (especially the place of birth). However, they are also more susceptible to outside influences. They “hear” their partner better, they perceive him spiritually more subtle. They enjoy greater mutual understanding than the signs of the yang group.

The signs of the elements of the Earth carry a creative beginning, conceal inexhaustible riches of the soul, opportunities, like the planet Earth, which has an abundance of opportunities and treasures. According to Karma, which, according to the statements of astrologers and bioenergetics, controls a person, it follows: if he went through a previous life on a superficial, unkind or unspiritual path, his spirit during the subsequent incarnation (incarnation) is directed to the feminine. The spirit of this person soars in time according to the signs of the Zodiac and the elements in order to incarnate again into the flesh and atone for past sins. Losing spiritual Karma, people of Yang signs incarnate in the months of the signs of the Zodiac of the elements of Earth and Water in order to achieve their spiritual goal. That is why, when calculating incarnation, it happens that a person born in this life turns out to be of the opposite sex, and this may indirectly indicate certain karmic debts that he will have to pay in real life.

Those born under the signs of the elements of the Earth are characterized by such qualities as reliability, concreteness, high efficiency, diligence, perseverance and perseverance in achieving the goal. People of these signs are passionate natures: for noble purposes, they use all their strengths and capabilities, both spiritual and material. Often, out of gullibility, they fall into the traps of dishonorable people. They have reduced practicality, lack of selfishness, self-interest and cunning, which creates certain life difficulties.
High endurance and tolerance, however, help them find a way out of the most difficult situations. They remember grievances, but are usually generous, easy-going. In their feelings they are distinguished by constancy, attachment to people.

It is noteworthy that people born under the sign of the element Earth, it is difficult to get along with other people, although they make new contacts with a desire, since they are characterized by curiosity, emotionality and sensuality. Sometimes they are impulsive, temperamental in expressing feelings and thoughts. Often these are intellectuals who are complex, but very interesting in terms of spiritual content, and it is important to understand them in order to get the maximum benefit from communicating with them.

The karmic task of the people of the elements of Fire is usually struggle, active creativity, and for the people of the elements of the Earth - creation, strengthening of spirituality, intellectual positions, inner content and physical strength that influences it. They prefer the rhythm of action, so they like to plan their day - they should be encouraged in this. It is easier for them to show their abilities and realize themselves when the life around them has a clear structure, order, rhythm, somewhat coinciding with the biorhythm of their body.

According to the astrological characteristics, these signs of the elements of the Earth mean:

  • Taurus- creative perseverance, patience and strength;
  • Virgo- thoroughness in the performance of work, their duties;
  • Capricorn is a leader who takes responsibility.

Air Release

The element of Air is the trigon of thinking, its symbol is a triangle, pointing upwards and crossed out in the middle with a horizontal line. This Element includes Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. The element governs the birth of thinking people, geniuses and individuals who are very susceptible to change, to everything new.

According to the ancient philosophers, in terms of its elements, the element of Air is close to the element of Fire (therefore, their designation symbols are similar - triangles, the tops of which are directed upwards): both carry an active principle, entrain, set in motion. But their difference is that the element of Fire has a constant activity, a directed action, and the element of Air has a variable, inconstant activity in direction and strength. Such people often change their mood dramatically, for no apparent reason. After sleep, when most people feel rested, full of energy, the carriers of the signs of Air are irritable, especially Libra. Such people can do you good, and after a while they can hurt you. They often grab onto several incompatible cases, scatter: without finishing one, they grab onto another. It is useless to re-educate, reproach these people - such is their astrological nature.

The element of Air is in constant motion in relation to the all-encompassing space (since its symbol is Space). The manifestation of the action of this element depends on the specific situation. It transmits ideas and thoughts, connects people with each other and with their past, present and future - with the space of time. In the human body, the Element connects the work of the lungs and the movement of blood into one whole, saturating the latter with oxygen necessary for combustion, to release energy (proximity to the element of Fire).
The element of Air makes contacts at different levels, joins various, sometimes opposite ideas and the people who create them. This element is of great importance for the production activity of a person, for the realization of his business qualities and for obtaining quality products. The element of Air is a connecting principle, personifies contact, connection, induction in society.
The element of Air also has common features with the element of Water - both are considered mobile, unsteady, changeable.

The symbolism of the signs of the Zodiac themselves in the group of the elements of Air is not accidental: Gemini is designated as a symbol of the union of a man and a woman; Scales are depicted as a woman holding scales in her hands; and Aquarius - the image of a man. The ancient sages thus emphasized that the element of Air contributes to the manifestation of the basic qualities of a person: the ability for spiritual communication and mutual enrichment, the internal development of the individual, sociability, the desire for mutual understanding in the family, society, social environment, country. Thus, the element of Air contributes to the erasure of caste and class boundaries, switching attention, adaptation to various conditions, to the mutual satisfaction of requirements.

People of these zodiac signs are in constant search. They are drawn to novelty. It is difficult for them to perform monotonous, non-creative work, which depresses and overworks them, hinders the initiative and the manifestation of their best qualities. Diplomats and politicians are born under this sign. They are best used for relevant activities in which they can be realized, show their abilities within the framework of carrying out the main idea, work. They need control, but it should not be intrusive or humiliating.

The signs of the element of Air are associated with Spirit, with Divine Breath. The ancients believed that people of this element draw ideas from the air (according to Eastern philosophy and the doctrine of the elements, “ideas are in the air”, and bioenergy confirms that the energy of thought can be transmitted at a distance).

Water Release

The element of Water is a trigon of feelings, the symbol is a triangle pointing downwards, crossed out in the middle with a horizontal line. This element includes Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. The element controls the birth of emotional, very intelligent people with a well-developed sense of the subconscious, intuition.

Cosmological myths and ancient wisdom reflect "the embodiment of the Living Cosmos in the waters of the oceans." The image of Pisces symbolizes the embodiment of life itself on Earth. Water is a cosmic material principle, it has always symbolized the beginning of life, the earthly world. Therefore, water has always been held in high esteem, and the ancients worshiped it.

Astrologers believe that the element of Water is also associated with Karma. Each incarnation is the result of past earthly and planetary life. A lot of valuable information can be given to a person by his personal horoscope: it is “the passport of incarnation, it shows where the soul of a person has been”, you just need to be able to read its astrological signs. All signs of the horoscope are karmic, but it manifests itself most strongly in the signs of the elements of Water - Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.

People of these signs always remember or subconsciously feel their past lives. They often have burdened Karma. What explains this? Pisces, which are the most characteristic representatives of the Element of Water as a sign of the Zodiac, carry the key to the puzzle. This sign is the last in the circle of the Zodiac and completes its cycle. The souls of incarnates go through the last stage of their reincarnation, they get the opportunity to materialize in life on Earth. According to the square of the division of the sectors of the Zodiac circle into the elements and according to the periods of human ages, this is the period of Old Age, the weakening of the perception of the Cosmic Forces by the human body, which affects the fate of people born under these signs: they tend to suffer, sacrifice themselves, experience tolerance and, it would seem, random (but karmic!) life failures, overcome them. Not understanding the meaning of the suffering that has befallen them, some people of these signs go into masochism, self-torture. They themselves create trouble for themselves, underestimate events, as they say, "seeking adventure." But only when they overcome difficulties does their karmic healing come.

The signs of the elements of Water are associated with emotional Karma, with the consequences that resulted from the unbridledness of one's own emotions and feelings in a past life. According to Karma, all the troubles that the man of the element of Water brought to people in a past life, their experiences, torments, emotional upheavals should pass on to him in this life - he must now experience all these sorrows himself. During incarnation, as the ancient astrologers assured, the Great Justice of the Cosmos is observed: to each according to his merits.

For example, it is believed that if in a past life a child tormented parents with whims and deliberate bullying, the unseemliness of which he realized with age, then in this life he himself will become a parent who will have a child, a copy of himself in the past. If in a past life he was a slave to his erotic hobbies, as a young man or adult he was fed up with love and betrayal, then in his present incarnation he must experience the fate of the victim or the person to whom he caused a lot of trouble. If in a past life he was a drunkard, then in this life he can become a woman who will marry a drunkard and will herself suffer, not being able to free herself; the latter can also affect the child: born a child of a drunkard father, most likely physically or mentally handicapped, he and his parents will know all the suffering. If in a past life his actions were distinguished by sadism, then in this life he will be born a person who will experience the same actions from another person.

People of the element of Water are distinguished by high emotional susceptibility, they subtly feel those around them, they feel well the frequency signals of the Cosmos. The symbol of the element is a triangle turned upside down, crossed out by a horizontal line, reminiscent of the image of a glass filled up to half with energy liquid. People of this element have good occult, meditation and other abilities that connect a person with the other world. On the other hand, in comparison with the signs of other Elements, they are more immersed in the world of their own experiences. Emotional connections are more important for them than business ones. They are distinguished by greater constancy in their feelings. At the same time, they are not only emotional, but also impulsive, sometimes capable of rash acts: at the beginning they do, and then analyze what has happened.

Such personalities are also endowed with great survival and resistance to the onslaught of life storms. The mighty life force of their symbol of water helps them, the ancients believed, to relatively quickly restore the Cosmic energy perceived by the body and get back on their feet after crushing defeats. People of these signs have the ability to accumulate huge potential forces for future development.

Astrological characteristics of the signs of the elements:

  • Crayfish- intuition, development of feelings;
  • Scorpion- it is characterized by the concentration of feelings and emotions;
  • Fish- the transformation of their feelings and suffering into spiritual strength.

Astrological knowledge of Karma, Fates give a person the opportunity to be more tolerant of the inevitable difficulties in life, failures and defeats. From a philosophical and astrological standpoint, they should be perceived as a test given to a person, which he must overcome, and not panic, do not give up, do not torment yourself with remorse, which could be otherwise, “if only, if only ...”. According to the doctrine of Karma, one should show character and overcome the difficulties that have arisen to the best of one's ability, endure them steadfastly. Apparently poets mu have "lucky" and "unlucky" people. The “unlucky” are still unlucky, although they seem to try no less than the “lucky” ones and do the same thing as them.

The influence of the element of Water on the planet Earth is given very importance. Before the birth of Christ, the era of Aries, which belongs to the element of Fire, passed on Earth. The Age of Aries, like every period of the zodiacal eras (the influence of the sign of the Zodiac on the Earth, which is equivalent to the influence of the Elements it represents), lasted two thousand years. Aries encouraged the inhabitants of the Earth to act and to counteract it in a mirror image: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. The lack of mercy and tolerance gave rise to malice and violence, war and destruction.
With the birth of Christ, a new era began - the era of Pisces, the element of Water, which also lasted for two thousand years. The main principles of this era were emotional relationships, national divisions, compassion and empathy.

The Age of Pisces is coming to an end - it ended in 2003. It was replaced by a new era - Aquarius, the element of Air. She represents the trine of Thought. It is believed that over the next two thousand years the main principles will be: the triumph of reason, humanity, rationality in actions and relationships, creating conditions for the development of the best human qualities, strengthening human health and caring for the emergence of worthy, healthy and talented offspring, more effective struggle against diseases and increased life expectancy.
