The Elements

Each Sun sign also belongs to a second category, the elements, which are fire, earth, air, and water. These groupings mirror the energies fundamental to each Sun sign, as you will see below.

	FIRE SIGNS	Aries, Leo, Sagittarius	Lively, forceful
	EARTH SIGNS	Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn	Sensible, reserved
	AIR SIGNS	Gemini, Libra, Aquarius	Outgoing, mentally alert
	WATER SIGNS	Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces	Emotional, perceptive

Notice that all fire and air signs are extrovert (masculine), while the earth and water people are introvert (feminine).

Note: Despite the fact that the symbol for Aquarius is the water carrier, it is an air sign.
