They are in the order of earth, water, air, fire, and ether. This is just a simple test to see what element you connect to.Everybody has a birth chart. The moment you are born you are no longer energetically protected by your mother's womb, and even disconnected from the umbilical cord. These energies resonate with you your entire life. Some say it affects your destiny. Coming from the sun and the moon are two major influences. Stars aligning with these heavenly bodies manifest together with planets. By having a healthy relationship with the sun and the moon you can learn to deal with positive and negative forces. People lean toward an amount of certain elements and less of other elements.Earth being very reasonable and prepared. Water uses its connectivity to gut knowledge and sexuality, or spiritually with truth, and even harmony and growth. Air is a communicatory sign having Gemini and their language knowledge and adaptability, while libra uses air for balance and justice, and Aquarius has knowledge and energy. Lastly the fire sign represents order in chaos. Leo and their social powers, Sagittarius the philosopher, and Aries the powerful actor with intense resourcefulness.These signs represent the stars behind the celestial body. Some of the other planets move very slowly like Uranus and Pluto, so an entire generation will have the same sign for these planets. While other planets are closer to the sun and orbit faster, so the sign changes quite frequently. An easy way to look at your astrology is to put it in a birth chart calculator. The elements associated with each sign areearth - Taurus water - Cancer air - Gemini fire - Aries earth - Virgo water - Scorpio air - Libra fire - Leo earth - Capricorn water - Pisces air - Aquarius fire - Sagittarius. Being connected to certain elements shows you how to live your life and take care of yourself. All elements are necessary but you may lean to certain elements more than others. Its important to look at all the planets in your birth chart not just the sun. For me I have three planets in earth, three in water, three in air, and one in fire. But the Sun and the Moon are the biggest influences, so I have the sun in fire, and the Moon in air cusping into water. Nov 30 92 I have Neptune in Pisces, Mars in Cancer, Pluto in Scopio, Three Capricorn planets, Jupiter in Aquarius. The Earth element is very helpful such as a sandwich when your hungry, but I think all day about nice things do drink and don't really care about food until it is in front of me. The moon is considered the yang energy the feminine in the sky, while the sun is the yin, masculine energy. The moon related to the spiritual more than the action and the mind more than the body. A full moon represents a new beginning and high energy. While the maning or empty moon is quiet and a lower vibration. The moon also axes and wanes giving different levels of photons coming towards the earth in specific geometrical patterns.Elementalism from a modern perspective is not much different. We all have certain molecules we like to have daily. You may be connected to certain vibrations of functions of chemicals or dieties.
