The Four Elements: Fire, Earth, Air, and Water

3 min read

Learning objectives

✦Describe the qualities represented by fire, earth, air, and water
✦Assign the twelve signs to their elements and connect them with polarity
✦Use elemental proportions to read temperament and possible gaps

Why do some people light up every room? Why do others value tangible results and frown at vague dreams? Why can a change in tone affect someone’s feelings all day? Astrology describes these basic differences in temperament through a classification developed over two thousand years ago: four elements, fire, earth, air, and water.

The elements are among astrology’s oldest and most useful filters. The previous lesson’s three modalities describe how a sign moves; elements describe the quality of its energy. Together they give each sign a unique position.
