Fire, Air, Earth, and Water. The Elements of Astrology in Love.
Astrology can be a very complex science. There are a great deal of aspects to consider when determining compatibility between two signs. One of the best, easiest, and often overlooked way to see if two signs are compatible is by simply understanding the elements.
There are four elements, and each one is attributed to three specific signs. They are as follows:
Fire: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Air: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
Earth: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
Water: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
Now each of the elements have certain characteristics, and I'll give you a brief summary of what those are.
Fire: Positive, Assertive, Determined, Active
Air: Social, Intelligent, Doers, Communicators
Earth: Stable, Enduring, Structured, Introverted
Water: Passive, Receptive, Reactive, Intuitive
It's possible that you are beginning to understand which elements are the most likely to blend well together.
As a "general" rule, when dealing with the elements, Fire mixes with Air, and Earth mixes with Water. I know it seems far too general, and much too simple to be taken seriously, but in my experience this has been a solid foundation in considering
compatibility time, and time again. If your a casual Astrology fan, and calculating planetary aspects between two people's charts is not your bag, then this is an much simpler formula you can incorporate. You'll find that it sells itself in the end. You can also get insights as to why you are most attracted to certain types of people, when the "general" rule does not seem to apply to you specifically. Of course, a chart would most definitely compliment this, because you would be able to see just why you might find yourself leaning towards a certain type. For instance, my personal chart does not contain a single earth element, and therefore, I often find myself drawn to the earthy signs. There are many ways to use this knowledge, and you just might get a better understanding of who your attracted to and why.
