Air - Water - Earth - Fire: the four elements in the zodiacal signs
The four elements are present in every component of our life, they are the essence itself. Each of them has qualities that distinguish it and that perfectly match the character of the persons and of the zodiacal sign to which they belong .
Astrology recognizes a great importance, in the analysis of a character, to the element to which its zodiacal sign belongs. The division by elements takes into account whether the zodiacal sign of belonging is a sign of fire, of earth, air or water. This first partition is useful for obtaining information about the person in question. A character and a destiny are often influenced by the type of elemental energy that dominates in the birth theme, especially if it is the same as the sign in which we were born.
The influence of the four elements in practical life and in the psyche
In the deeper astrological interpretation the four elements are the archetypal representation of the reality in which we live, each of them has a moral and practical value that differentiates the various expressions in daily life.
The Earth element:
it concerns the physical and material world. It has a practical mental setting.
The Water element: it concerns the emotional and emotional world. He has an emotional kind of mindset.
The Air element: it concerns the mental sphere and relationships. It has an intellectual-type mental setting.
The Fire element: it concerns the creative sphere and spirituality. It has a passionate-instinctive mental setting.
What the four elements represent
In nature and in astrology, the four elements are considered pillars on which the whole construction of our being is based. Life, matter and the four worlds of creation (animal, vegetable, mineral and human) arise from the interaction of these energies.
They have a correspondence in the various organs of the human body and in our own energetic structure, since each of the seven chakras (the pivot points of the electromagnetic current that keeps our body alive) is governed by a specific element that qualifies it and provides energy.
As Hippocrates himself claimed: - the basic balance in the human body is based on a harmonious exchange between the various elements. It is not possible to cure the single disease and the individual patient, "without knowing the nature of the whole".
In the event that there is a lack of balance between "inside and outside" and between the various subtle and physical components that support the body, disharmony would arise which would negatively affect health and the psyche.
Element compatibility
It is interesting to note that each element is matched by a mutual exchange to another. Precisely for this we find that the water gets along with the earth and the fire with the air.
Each zodiacal sign has, in front of itself, in the same axis, the sign that belongs to the element with which there is correspondence. To achieve a good balance in character and in the body it is appropriate that such exchange be constantly active, so that temperament and health can enrich them.
Air Element
Air is the element that more than others is connected to material and spiritual life. Symbol of lightness, rises from the heavy and heavy atmosphere of the earth to rise to higher peaks, in which the soul can wander and approach the Spirit.
