The elements
and astrology
Astrology as tripicities,
three signs for each element. These indicate our strong points which
we automatically use to function in the world
Fire,
Earth, Air, Water
Fire
(Intuition)
Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
These people have a fiery
quality to their temperament. They function with flashes of incite
and instinct. . Using spontaneous guesswork, they often go on a
hunch or have a sudden premonition. They typically operate by the
seat of their pants. They trust that their vitality, charisma, magnetism
and and enthusiasm will contagiously inspire others. Others may
perceive these people as risk takers, impetuous, impulsive, daring
and perhaps even reckless. Intuition is their strong, superior function.
Earth
(sensation)
Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn
These people are bent
on making things real and useful. They rely on what is tangible.
Their five senses are their trusted instruments. They are the show-me,
hands on, seeing-is-believing kind of person. Others may perceive
them as overly cautious and pragmatic, perhaps slow to react and
never one to jump into things. This is because of your elemental
need to stay founded in physical reality of the present.
Air
(Thinking)
Gemini, Libra and Aquarius
These people stay aloft
in the realm of ideas, ideals and principles while striving to keep
the high ground of human affairs. These people are predominately
the thinking types. They are good at employing their intellectual
skills as instruments of exchange, connection and communication.
Their mind is their dominate muscle; they rely on its strength to
work their way through a situation rationally. These people have
the capacity to rise above events by linking past and present into
a conceptual chain, giving a logical reason why. Because of their
ability to detach mentally, others may perceive them as somewhat
impersonal, even coldly analytical. Still others may characterize
them as absent-minded, up-in-the-clouds or preoccupied. Thinking
is their superior function.
Water
(Feeling)
Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
These people draw forth
feeling, affect and intimacy. They rely on hard-to-define impressions
that are subtle. These are people who are acutely sensitive, seeming
able to pick up vibrations from others. They are highly influenced
by their own moods. Life's intangibles deeply affect them. To others,
they might appear irrational. Others might be mystified by your
life choices. What others may not understand is that these people
are answering to their inner guide. Feeling is their strongest function.
