Everyone’s heard of astrological signs, but what exactly do these signs mean? Now, while most people are familiar with different star signs like Aries, or Cancer, or Libra, or Scorpio, what many people don’t realize is that these astrological signs are actually based upon the four elements known to the ancients: earth, water, fire and air.

Fire signs are strong and intense, and have deeply defined personalities. Aries, for example, is a fire sign, and while this zodiac sign is a ram, this symbol might more correctly be said to represent the fire – bright and giving off warmth and comfort. Though it might not be always comfortable to have an Aries around, for these people with their intense personalities can burn as well as comfort.

Knowing what the signs mean can help you to understand astrological predictions. Remember there are all sorts of websites around at which you can get astrological predictions fairly easily – there are websites offering horoscopes for today, which of course means that they will calculate a daily horoscope for you that will reach your mailbox every morning.

Now, there are twelve astrological signs in all in the Zodiac, and that gives just about three signs per element. The element fire governs Aries, as well as the constellation Leo and the constellation Sagittarius.

Taurus is an earth element, and the Zodiac sign Virgo, as well as Capricorn, also fall under the earth element. Gemini, the twins, is an air element, and also governed by the element air you will find the Zodiac signs Aquarius and Libra. There are three signs that fall in water, perhaps the most strongly marked of which is Scorpio, but Cancer and Pisces are also water signs.

As I’ve already explained earlier, much of a person’s characteristics gained from a sign depend upon an element that the sign is based upon. Intense emotions are linked with fire signs, like Aries or Sagittarius, and of course Leo. People from these signs are generally simple, direct and honest. They cannot bear to wait; they cannot let things run cool, but must act at once and decisively.

Remember that in any astrological signs the planets that are present at the moment of one’s birth alter the characteristics of the sign to a lesser or greater extent. Earth signs are far more stable than fire signs.

The earth symbol stands for stability, and Taureans, Virgos and Capricorns tend to move slowly but surely, and to pick up momentum as they move until they are all but unstoppable.

As I explained before, the planets present at one’s birth can alter any sign to a lesser or greater extent, and if you have a Taurus who had the sun in their birth, then you’ll find a blend of steady sureness, as well as the ability to act quickly. Intellectualism belongs to the air signs, such as Libras, Aquarians and Geminis.

Those who fall under the air signs tend to thing things out carefully and always give importance to the big picture. With their perspective on things they rarely go wrong – however, they may lack the decisive energy and the ability to move of the fire and earth elements. People who come under the water signs, such as Scorpio, for example, tend to be flexible and yet able to reach their destination.

This may make them very difficult people to deal with if you want your way, because they tend to get their way no matter what, sometimes using quite surprising strategies. They will rarely fight against a wall that they come against them, but instead will simply find a way around it. At the same time they will rarely relinquish a goal. Yes, water signs can be difficult to deal with.

However the elements are not the only basis for the Zodiac signs. Each of them has their own unique characteristics, of course. For example, people who are born under the twin signs Pisces and Gemini usually have a characteristic duality to their natures. Their nature often contains mixtures of opposing characteristics.

Similarly, people born under the sign Leo usually are powerful dominating personalities, whereas Scorpios, besides the elemental characteristics that I’ve discussed earlier, often have an extremely bold personality. Just the same way, those born under the sign Virgo are usually rather inquisitive.

So you see, each sign stands for something. Firstly, the sign is influenced by the element is belongs to, and then it is also influenced by its own unique characteristics. Besides this, each sign is influenced by the planet that had dominance at the time of one’s birth.

Knowing the moment you were born, as well as the characteristics of the Zodiac signs and planets you were born under can enable you to understand your own personality as well as enable you to predict the future.
