The twelve signs of the zodiac belong to 4 elements: fire, water, air and earth. The character, fate and environment of a person are influenced not only by his zodiac feature, but also by belonging to one of these categories. Traditionally, the zodiac signs are placed on one circle, similar to the face of a watch. If you connect each of them with straight lines based on the elements, you get 4 equilateral triangles, within which ideal pairs for love and friendship . However, there are exceptions to every rule. Let us consider in detail the characteristics of the zodiac signs based on the elements and their compatibility.
Fire signs
The element of hot-tempered, impulsive people belongs to: Aries, Leo and Sagittarius.
Fire zodiac signs are very independent and energetic. They love to be leaders, preferring to avoid people who like to give orders. Fire people are responsible and self-confident.
They prefer to figure everything out themselves, without using other people’s advice and instructions.
On the way to achieving great goals, they, as a rule, stand in the way of impatience and lack of restraint. Any failure leads to the fact that aspirations cool down and a desire to change the direction of movement appears. Fire signs start well, but rarely reach the finish line. They cannot have several tasks at the same time; as soon as a goal appears, everything else fades into the background until the first failure. In relationships, fiery people are leaders who take responsibility for their partner and do not want to put up with a dependent state.
Within the fire element, strong couples can form: Aries-Leo, Leo-Sagittarius, Sagittarius-Aries. Such unions will be very hot, but may not burn for long if there is nothing to fuel the feelings.

Element Water: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
Let's analyze what the element of water is in astrology. Has no form. The properties of this element are fluidity, flexibility, adaptability. Take the shape of the place you hit.
- She dissolves everything and stores within herself what she has dissolved, but you can’t tell from her.
- Possesses secrets that are invisible to the eye.
- Fluid. And it makes everything wet, softening what has dried out.
The element of water has a power that manifests itself whenever other elements influence it. But on its own it strives for peace. Receptive, mysterious, secretive, fickle in its endless transformation into steam and ice. Omnipresent. Intoxicating. Giving life and taking it away. Water signs are Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.
Cancer (Crab)
Fourth sign of the Zodiac; first watermark; second cardinal sign. Cancer, symbolized by the crab, can live well both in water and on land: it goes through metamorphoses at different stages of its existence. He heads the psychic trinity. All expressions of this sign are related to the psychic basis. It has a tendency to hold and retain the effect of vibration directed at it, and like a lake it reflects whatever is directed at it. This sign is associated with sensation, and everything that consciously affects feelings and emotions, from the most outer physical sensation to the inner sensitivity, which is the first germ of the astral mind. This is a sign of receptivity and memory, which stores impressions. At the same time, each wave creates a large vibration under the vibrations, awakening the inner sensitivity of this sign. Its most distinctive characteristics are a strong desire for sensation, power, or fame.
Of the three water signs, Cancer dominates the ocean, Pisces dominates rivers, Scorpio dominates lakes, ice, and standing waters. In another interpretation, Cancer symbolizes the great restless flow of astral matter, creative and plastic, changeable like the Moon, Mother of all living things, and Proserpina, queen of the kingdom of the dead.
Scorpion
Eighth sign of the Zodiac; second water sign; third permanent sign. It is designated by Scorpio, sometimes by Eagle. This sign presides over all liquids, thick and heavy, viscous oils, poisons, sewage, stagnant pools, chemicals, mineral waters, etc. In this sign, liquids thicken. Rotational movements combined with the quality of constancy are very clearly marked in this sign. The psychic embryo, born from the vibrations of Cancer, is brought into a solid state corresponding to the awakening consciousness. All feelings and sensations of this sign become powerful (persuasive) and persistent (persistent). Both virtue and evil are clearly stated in this sign.
Just as the rotational movement makes another unstable body (such as the apex) solid and permanent, so the Scorpio soul gathers its experience and creates a strongly marked personality, constant and emphatic, whether for good or evil, strong and unbending. The evil side involves pride, envy, cruelty, personal vanity, jealousy and hatred. The good side is perseverance, courage, physical and moral, and practical abilities. When the inner side is awakened, it brings forward the mystical, the occult, and psychic supersensibility manifests itself. The soul becomes as acutely active in benevolence as the personality is in evil. Its most distinctive characteristic is intensity or “passion.”
FISH
Twelfth sign of the Zodiac, third water sign. Its symbol is two fish swimming in opposite directions. This sign can be compared to oblivion. As a sign of a temporary (fleeting) order, it denotes the transition of consciousness once again into the physical body, or into higher forms of being. They run out of water signs. It represents the ocean in connection with the water element to which it belongs.
This symbol is “Universal Solvent”. In Cancer, sensations and feelings are awakened; in Scorpio they are concentrated and intensified; and in Pisces everything is turned into emotions, which, like the ocean, are deep, silent and inexpressive. Just as the foot is lifted off the ground, so the emotions (symbolized by Pisces) are lifted from the earth's threshold and made more universal. Some idea of the nature of this sign may be derived from the fact that Pisces is the sign of concern for hospitals, where sympathy and charity are expressed.
The dual nature of the sign shows us what can be expected, namely: the inability to achieve great sympathy produces a renegade (an abandoned person) and those whose mental nature opens the way to obsession, melancholy and hopeless despondency. It denotes a tendency toward sterile and useless emotions or toward positive, active sympathy, the ideal of which is contained in the environment: “Love your neighbor as yourself,” and in the answer to the question “Why?”: “Because he is you.” Its most distinctive feature is permeability.
People of the air
The most sociable, friendly signs from the entire zodiac family are Gemini, Libra and Aquarius.
It’s not for nothing that the air is considered easy to rise. All those who belong to his family easily adapt to any situation, constantly moving in search of new contacts and communication. The main thing of the air sign is multitasking.
Such people can simultaneously conduct many projects, dialogues, concentrate on everything at the same time, without losing the chosen directions
Multitasking does not allow people to sit in one place; they do not like painstaking work and monotony, so they often do not complete the task.
Air loves to draw strength from different spheres of life in radically different directions, so its adherents do not have difficulties with learning and perceiving everything unknown. People of these signs are soft and easy-going; they cannot live under pressure or in harsh conditions. They are not confrontational and easily compromise in order to avoid quarrels and aggression. Airy people are optimists, so it is not easy to break their spirit; they tolerate failures much easier than others.
Within the framework of the element, harmonious couples can form: Gemini-Libra, Aquarius-Libra, Gemini-Aquarius.
The element allows you to create a very warm, sensual relationship, but in the event of a breakup, both partners from the air element will not suffer for long and will quickly find a replacement for their loved one.

Element – Earth
Reliable and confident earth signs: Capricorn, Virgo and Taurus.
The earth is a reliable support, so its signs are practical and permanent. They acquire new knowledge the hard way, thoroughly absorbing the information. People in this category are excellent workers, capable of many achievements thanks to specificity, responsibility and endurance.
The Earth does not like change, so it takes a long time and hard to change the field of activity if the need arises
It is very difficult to get acquainted with earth representatives. They have a hard time making contact, have a hard time getting along with people because of internal insecurities and doubts. Such feelings are born due to strong emotionality. The earth can withstand the blow without showing its feelings during the insult, but inside it will be difficult to worry about everything. Only very subtle natures can feel what is going on inside such people. The earth is hardy and patient, it can forgive a lot to those it loves, except betrayal and betrayal. Deep resentment does not allow you to accept the person back.
Within the framework of secretive, insecure earth people, good pairings can be made from Capricorn and Taurus, Virgo and Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn.
It is much easier for people of earth to understand each other than to transfer their condition to other zodiac signs. Once married, they live faithfully and honestly towards each other, and are responsible for the family.

Compatibility of elements and signs
Knowing which element a person’s zodiac sign belongs to, it is easier to find common ground and understand the motives of his behavior.
The classic combination has long been considered Water and Earth. Water signs make overly straightforward partners more flexible and diplomatic. Earth signs, in turn, provide them with the necessary support and stability.
The most dangerous is the union of Water and Fire, the participants of which are capable of driving each other into a frenzy with one word. Moreover, Water signs do not always show gentleness and friendliness in order to extinguish the anger of their fiery partner. Rather, they resemble a waterfall rushing quickly down a mountain, trying to win an argument.
All zodiac signs would like to get along with representatives of the Air element. Cheerful and cheerful, they captivate with their spontaneity and funny ideas. However, air signs are not ready to tolerate routine and too strict control, so Air-Earth relationships are difficult.
Feelings of the Air-Fire couple flare up quickly, but usually they are short-lived.
If you have wisdom and a desire to be together, any combination of elements and zodiac signs is acceptable. Small concessions and patience will benefit every union.
Water representatives
Zodiac signs of this element are characterized by emotionality and high sensitivity towards others. These include: Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio.
Water people easily change the situation and, due to emotional plasticity, adapt to the circumstances that arise.
Despite this feature, they value stability and comfort, so they often close themselves within the family, avoiding outside contacts.
Water promotes a rich imagination, which in turn contributes to the emergence of experiences and fantasies. Greater emotionality contributes to unpredictable actions and absurd situations that representatives of this sign can create.
Water is very sensitive to all emotional attachments, so it becomes dependent on people and their actions. When problems occur in a relationship, they can greatly impact your performance. When representatives of a sign are all right emotionally, they will cope better than others with any work, complete the most difficult task and correct what seems insoluble.
Within the elements, pairs are possible: Pisces-Cancer, Cancer-Scorpio, Scorpio-Pisces.
Unions of water signs are based on trust and respect; they not only understand, but also feel any change in the partner’s behavior. At the same time, personal space for them is a special territory that they do not allow to be crossed.

Traditions of dividing zodiac signs by elements
Chinese scientists became the founders of structuring zodiac signs by elements. Based on similar character traits, they came up with the idea of dividing them into four groups, associating them with metal, air, earth and water.
In the very first astrological treatises there was a fifth element, but it stood out from the general series, and was subsequently abandoned.
Zodiac signs belonging to the same element did not follow one another, but alternated at intervals of about three months. Thus, the 12 signs were divided into four main groups for the first time.
The Greeks improved the system by replacing metal with fire. In their opinion, the explosive temperament of the representatives of this element was more consistent with an unpredictable flame that easily turns into a fire and a natural disaster.
