1. The Hidden Influence Of The 4 Elements
Water. Earth. Fire. Air. This isn’t just an opening phrase to a fantasy book or movie. It is also
a very important foundation to modern astrology. Zodiac element meanings vary, and they
influence each sign – and person – greatly.
You may know there are 12 signs of the zodiac, but do you know the element of each sign?
There are four elements: fire, earth, air, and water, or three signs per each element – this is
called a triplicity by modern astrologers.
- Fire Signs: Creativity
The first of the four traditional elements is fire, and you don’t need to be an astrologer to
guess what it means. Ancient astrologers linked fire with the vital force of creation – think of
the original fireball: the Big Bang.
This association still stands.
Fire generates heat in the form of excitement, activity, and desire. People born under these
dynamic, extroverted signs are vigorous and volatile, enterprising and courageous.
They’re also restless and impatient, with a ready supply of creativity and vision. However,
they have trouble accepting limits, which makes them prone to burnout. In the cycle of the
zodiac, every element has its function. Earth offers stability. Air communicates. Water
imparts emotion. But only Fire can provide the initial burst of creative energy that sets the
world in motion.
The fire signs, which are known for their energy and dirve, include the following:
• Aries the Ram (March 20 to April 18), the sign of cardinal fire. It’s impulsive, daring
and gifted at setting things in motion.
• Leo the Lion (July 23 to August 22), the sign of fixed fire. It’s vibrant, confident, and
brimming with determination.
• Sagittarius the Archer (November 22 to December 21), the sign of mutable fire. It’s
independent, adventurous, and spontaneous.
Even though these signs differ in many ways, they share the life-affirming vitality that fire
brings.
- Earth Signs: Stability
Just as the Universe burst into existence with the fireball of the Big Bang, the cycle of the
zodiac lifts off with a blast of fire. Fire creates heat, light, and movement. But what’s the point
of all that combustion if it leads to nothing?
Without earth, fire would burn itself out like a spray of fireworks agains the night sky.
Earth signs ground the energy of fire by turning sizzle into something tangible. They are
stable, sensible, productive, persistent, and materialistic – not necessarily in a bad way.
Unlike less realistic signs, earth signs understand and respect material things, including
money.

2. They’re also senuous, responsive human beings who love the physical world.
Fire sends off sparks, no question.
Air talks up a storm.
And no one understands the impact of emotion like water.
But if you want to actually get something done, look to Earth.
The earth signs, recognized for their productivity and pragmatic approach to life, include the
following:
• Taurus the Bull (April 19 to May 20), the sign of fixed earth. Taurus is known for its
persistence, its longing for security, and – in case you thought that earth signs are only about
practicality – its love of pleasure.
• Virgo the Virgin (August 23 to September 22), the sign of mutable earth. Virgo is
famed for its analytical mind, its attention to detail, and its tendency to be a perfectionist.
• Capricorn the Sea Goat (December 22 to January 19), the sign of cardinal fire. The
Goat is resourceful, conscientious, and ambitious.
These signs share a desire to make a tangible contribution.
- Air Signs: Intelligence
Air represents intelligence and reason. It’s the element of the intellect, and those born under
its influence are known for their ability to connect the dots. Air signs are bright, curious,
versatile, and intellectually restless. Their minds are always active, always searching for
understanding. Crazy as it may sound, natives of those signs actually think about signs, and
they try to do it objectively and in depth.
They value ideas and revel in conversation. Despite their reputation for sometimes being a
little too objective and detached, they’re also very social, linking friends, relatives, and
random strangers into networks of relationships.
By long astrological tradition, each of the four elements has been assigned to the three signs
of the zodiac.
The air signs, which are legendary for their mental prowess, include the following:
• Gemini the Twins (May 21 to June 20), the sign of mutable air. Gemini is known for
its curious, lively mind, sparkling personality and capricious ways.
• Libra the Scales (September 23 to October 22), the sign of cardinal air. Libra is
recognized for its balanced intellect, sense of fairness, great sensitivity, as well as for the
importance it places on partnership.
• Aquarius the Water Bearer (January 20 to February 18), the sign of fixed air.
Aquarius is celebrated for its forward-looking ideas, unique and often eccentric interests, and
free-spirited personality.
Air signs share a desire to make connections and to communicate.
- Water Signs: Emotion
Water represents emotion, and those born under its influence tend to be flooded with
sentiments.
Profoundly sensitive, they’re vulnerable and active, first responders on the most human front
of all.
They’re also hugely intuitive and occasionally psychic. They include:
• Cancer the Crab (June 21 to July 22), the sign of cardinal water. Cancer is famed for
its emotional acuity, sympathetic nature, and love of home.

3. • Scorpio the Scorpio (October 23 to November 21), the sign of fixed water. Scorpio is
recognized for its intensity, magnetism, and ability to burrow deep, both psychologically and
intellectually.
• Pisces the Fish (February 19 to March 19), the sign of mutable water. Ruled by
elusive Neptune, Pisces is compassionate, impressionable, gentle, and imaginative.
The water signs share an emotional sensitivity and a well-developed sense of intuition.
The Importance And Meaning Of The Astrological Houses
The zodiac wheel is a circle (symbolizing no beginning and no end) divided into twelve
segments called houses that represent different areas of life.
Every house provides a home for the planets residing there – giving that planet a place to
act out its particular energy.
The horizontal line that connects the 1st and 7 house cusp (the cusp is the beginning of the
house, marked by a new line) represents Earth’s horizon.
The 1st house cusp is the eastern-most point and the 7th is the western-most point. Planets
near the 1st house cusp are called “rising” because they are coming up over the eastern
horizon at the moment of birth.
- The 1st house affects the appearance and the personality, as it is perceived by the
outside world. The rising sign is the degree and sign that marks the cusp of the 1st house
and coincides with the first independent breath we take. This is why exact birth time is so
critical in casting a natal chart – the chart’s very structure depends on the time and location
of birth.
- The Ascendant and 1st house symbolize the process of beginning and initiation.
Once you grasp this concept, you “get” what the 1st house is all about in a birth chart.
Planets here will be easily available to the world and we will use great energy in the
expression of those planets.
- The 2nd house is the house of values and possessions. It determines one’s level of
self-esteem and also indicates personal talents and abilities. Our relationship to money and
possessions as well as our attitude towards them can be understood from studying this
house. Lastly, this house represents what we hope to gain in life – what we desire.
- The 3rd house has to do with siblings, neighbors, youth, early school experiences
and relationships with those who live nearby. Perhaps the most significant meaning of this
house is communication – it tells us about every aspect of communication and all mental
endeavors. This is also the house having to do with short distance travel. Keywords to this
house include growth and exploration.
- The 4th house rules home, family, roots and the end of all matters. Ancestors,
heritage and parents – particularly the nurturing parent, usually mother, are represented by
this house. It is called the house of the soul and the sign on the cusp of this house as well as
any planets here can help us understand the qualities and elements of ourselves we keep
guarded.

4. - The 5th house is the house of romance, sex, conception, children, creativity,
self-expression and risks. Most importantly, this house is all about self-fulfillment – doing as
one pleases. It is the house of the inner child as well as your own childhood.
- The 6th house is all about work and service, our daily routine, jobs, and health. The
keyword to this house is “duty”. Our level of dedication to maintaining details that result in
knowledge and wisdom is expressed through this house. It symbolizes the mind-body
connection and as a result, health matters can be understood from this house as well.
- The 7th house (or Descendant) is the house opposite the 1st house of self and
identity, and thus it is concerned with the awareness of others. The sign placed on the 7th
house cusp describes how we approach a relationship and also indicates what we are
attracted to in a partner. Indeed the 7th house is the house of marriage, partnerships, and
open enemies. Through these significant relationships the lession of being aware of others is
learned.
- The 8th house is the house opposite the 2nd house of possessions and concern for
what is “mine”, what “I value” and “my abilities”. Thus the 8th house is concerned not with
what “I” have, but what “you” have, what “you” value and other people's talents and abilities.
The 8th house will tell you about the financial status of your marriage partner, since it is the
2nd house from the 7th. It will tell you about any investment you have concerning other
people’s money such as stocks, venture capital, taxes and inheritance. It is called the house
of “sex, death and regeneration” because this house forces us to explore our most intimate
and hidden depths by sharing ourselves with others.
- The 9th house is the house of long distance travel, higher education, philosophy,
religion and politics. Opposite the 3rd house of accumulating knowledge, this house teaches
us how we can share this knowledge gained through the 3rd with the world. This house asks
the deep questions and helps us find the meaning and purpose in life. The 3rd house is
where the journalist gets the information, but the 9th house is where he publishes it.
- The 10th house (or Midheaven) is the most elevated point in the chart. This explains
why the 10th house is concerned with career, status, honors and recognition. It is also
traditionally associated with our authority parent – most likely the father. The 10th house
shows your reputation – the public image you present to the world. The very nature of our
contribution to society is shown through the 10th house and it is one of the places you can
look to determine your true calling.
- The 11th house is the house of friendships, hopes, wishes, and dreams. It talks about
the relationship we have with the community and humanitarian issues. It is the most social of
houses, indicating our involvement with groups, clubs and organizations. In the 11th house
we find that dreams come true only when we consider society’s needs as well as our own.
- The 12th house is the most hidden house of the zodiac. It is where we seek to
transcend the humanness of ourselves but at the same time where we fear to do so because
of the uncertainty as to what we will find. Nevertheless, the ego is lost in the 12th house
whether we like it or not in order to delve deep into our most unconscious issues and
perhaps even take a peek at the collective unconscious. Once we get past the fear of losing

5. the self, we find a treasure in the 12th house that teaches us our great potential for
compassion and universal love. The 12th house is obscure, giving it the reputation of being
the “house of self-undoing” and is also assigned to hidden institutions such as prisons or
mental facilities.
Best Relaxation Massage For Each Sign
Every sign of the zodiac is associated with a different body part, which means that this part
of the body is the most sensitive for them.
Naturally, each one of the twelve zodiac signs also has their own favorite massage type,
aimed at relaxing their specific sensitive areas. These are:
- Aries
Those born under the sign of Aries tend to accumulate more stress around the head due to
the fact that their heads are always full of ideas.
Therefore, when it comes to massage, nothing beats a relaxing head and scalp massage for
Aries. Head massage with a focus on the forehead will be the most satisfying and
therapeutic massage for Aries.
- Taurus
Taurus is a sign that rules physical pleasure, so Taureans love indulging in a relaxing
massage, especially after a long day at work.
When Taurus is stressed, all the tension goes to their neck area which makes them feel sore
and stiff.
So, these people could really benefit the most from a deep neck and face massage.
Aromatherapy is also recommended in this case.
- Gemini
Gemini is a sign that rules the hands, arms, and shoulders. Those born under the sign of
Gemini can release a lot of tension and improve blood flow by having a gentle hand or
shoulder massage.
Also, Gemini tends to have a sensitive nervous system, so a whole body massage once in a
while can really help to calm their nerves.
- Cancer
Sensitive Cancer is associated with the digestive system, so they’re extremely receptive to
touch around the chest and stomach area. A gentle lymphatic massage that will remove all
the buildup toxins and stress and get their juices flowing can be an extremely relaxing – and
healing – experience for the Cancer.
- Leo
People born under the sign of Leo like to be touched on their back. Leos hold a lot of stress
and tension around their upper back area, so they won’t say no to a deep shoulder and back
massage that will release their tension. Moreover, they love to have their back rubbed and
their hair played with.
- Virgo

6. Virgo is a focused and hardworking sign that concentrates so much on their work
responsibilities that their nerves and temper begin to crumble.
And that feeling of nervousness can lead to digestive problems, stomach acid, and
headaches. Virgos love a good full body massage, with a special focus on their middle back
area.
- Libra
Even though Libras enjoy good health when their feelings are balanced, they usually tend to
gather tension around their lower back. This means that a deep tissue massage in the lower
back area can do wonders for them.
Pleasure-loving Libras could also benefit from a relaxing head massage because Aries rules
the head and it is the opposite sign of Libra.
- Scorpio
Scorpio is a sign that rules the sex organs, which means that their genital region is very
sensitive to touch.
Deep and passionate, they love massages on their hips and lower back.
However, since they’re very intense with deep emotions, they could really benefit from a
massage of their emotional center – the solar plexus.
- Sagittarius
Sagittarians rule the hips, thighs, and buttocks, so they tend to have a lot of tension in these
areas. Their hips and thighs are very responsive to touch, so Sagittarians will enjoy long and
soothing buttock and thigh massages.
- Capricorn
Capricorn is one of the most ambitious and determined zodiac signs out there. These people
want to succeed at everything and reach their goals, and the rocky climb can take its toll on
their legs and knees.
For this reason, Capricorns will benefit from a basic leg massage that will relieve stress and
tension in their joints and muscles.
- Aquarius
Aquarius rules the ankles and calves, which means that these areas are extremely sensitive
to massage.
However, Aquarius people also have a very sensitive nervous system, so they could benefit
from a hot stone massage which can help release pain and stress, decrease muscle
spasms, and improve sleep.
- Pisces
No one loves a good foot massage more than Pisces. This sign rules the feet, so a simple
reflexology massage will be very calming for sensitive Pisces.
Since this sign also rules the lymphatic system, a lymphatic massage will help remove the
toxins and wastes from their body and provide an overall soothing experience.
Your Lucky Color – According To Astrology

7. Color affects mood, and if your sign resonates with certain colors better than others,
shouldn’t you surround yourself with them? Definitely yes.
Here is your lucky color, according to your sign:
Aries – Red
Aries people are fiery, passionate, and a bit stubborn. Your lucky color is red.
It doesn’t come as a suprise that a fire sign like yours thrives when surrounded by red – it’s
the color of passion, courage, and excitement.
Plus, red is a great color when looking to stir up those creative juices or decorating your
home.
Taurus – Green
Taureans are grounded and trustworthy, with a good head on their shoulders when it comes
to practical matters. Your lucky color is green.
Not only is it grounded in nature, but green also has a powerful live energy that helps
Taureans feel revitalized. Not to mention, it’s also the color of wealth – something Taurus
signs value highly. Embrace your inner Taurus by adding green plants to your home decor,
or go for a lively green in your room.
Gemini – Yellow
Gemini is the sign of twins, which means that people who fall under Gemini tend to have two
sides of their personality – one talkative and full of life, and the other highly inquisitive and
thoughtful. Your lucky color is yellow.
Yellow is bright (it’s the brightest color of the visible spectrum), cheerful, and energetic –
much like a Gemini. It inspires orignal thought and happiness, and is the perfect suit for a
Gemini personality.
Try incorporating more yellow touches in areas where you want to be inspired – like your
home office – or places of welcome, like the front door.
Cancer – Silver
Cancers are emotional and empathetic – they experience the world through feeling, and are
always the first to lend a listening ear. Your lucky color is silver.
Cancers are ruled by the moon, so it makes sense that ethereal silvers are their lucky colors.
Try updating your home with silver accents, or go with some grey metallic furniture to create
a welcoming space.
Leo – Orange
Leos are the stars of the show. They are charismatic and charming, with a magnetic pull to
them. Your lucky color is orange.
There’s nothing more head-turning than the color orange, and the bold color is just what a
Leo needs to feel at home. Go for burnt orange in a sofa or other home accents for a look
that will both inspire and ground a Leo.
Virgo – Brown
Virgos are perfectionists, and have incredible attention to detail and are master planners.
They have a deep love of humanity, but can come off as reserved or critical before opening
up. Your lucky color is brown.
Brown is a subtle hue – exactly like Virgo’s personality – but also the backbone of any good
color scheme, and a go-to color in the design world.

8. Brown helps to ground Virgo’s overthinking mind, as well. Try grounding a room with rustic
wood accents or a coffee table for a Virgo-approved look.
Libra – Pink
Libras love beauty, and strive to create something beautiful out of every part of their lives
and always seeking balance. Your lucky color is pink.
A serene, pale pink adds just the right amount of calmness to a space. Try using the color in
your home, or going for a great accent chair in the hue.
Scorpio – Black
Scorpios never truly say what they’re thinking – at least, not at first – and can come off quite
mysterious. Your lucky color is black.
This intense shade (or absence of color) makes complete sense for Scorpio, who loves
nothing more than to keep people guessing.
And black, while intense, can be used in countless ways when picking clothes, dressing up,
or decorating your home.
Sagittarius – Purple
Sagittarians are adventurous people, ready to blaze new trails and make new friends
wherever they go. Your lucky color is purple.
Creative and clever, purple speaks out to the soul of a Sagittarian and will help them think
outside of the box.
Try using plum and lavender shades in places where you want to work and create.
Capricorn – Charcoal Grey
Capricorns are ambitious, with an innate sense of individuality that makes them fantastic
workers and organizers. Your lucky color is charcoal grey.
Charcoal grey, while neutral, is a strong and practical statement – just like the Capricorn
sign.
Try using the shade to create a cozy resting space, or as a statement-making shade for a
dining room.
Aquarius – Blue
Aquarians are almost like the extraterrestrials of the zodiac – they’re ahead of their time, and
think extremely out of the box. Your lucky color is blue.
As a water bearer, Aquarians bring knowledge to the world, and blue helps calm and center
them as their thoughts spiral into a million directions.
Try using blue in the bedroom as a calming shade.
Pisces – Aquamarine
Pisces are highly imaginative, with a penchant for arts and romance. As a water sign, they
feel a lot – and express those feelings a lot, as well. Your lucky color is aquamarine.
Pisces – the fish – thrive when surrounded by the colors of the ocean, which helps them
restore their energy. Try using it in the kitchen or in the bathroom.
