CATALOGUING OF ELEMENTS

As many of you are aware there are four basic elements in Astrology, fire, air, water and earth. These four elements can further be divided into two groups, fire and air demonstrating dynamic energy and self-expression along with the intellectual ability to find alternative ways of expressing these qualities. Earth and water are considered much more passive by nature and receptive to the influences of the unconscious mind, particularly the element of water.

Since we are still under the influence of the Scorpio Sun sign, we will dig a little deeper into the meaning associated with Scorpio’s element, water. The three water signs are Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces; however, planets located in the fourth, eighth and twelfth houses which are considered water houses, will also have a watery temperament about them.

Those with an emphasis of water in their Charts are generally in touch with their feelings, and tuned in to the higher frequencies of life, such as clairvoyance ability and have a mystical approach to life. (Individuals that are more dominant with the element of Earth, [as well as some Fire signs particularly Aries and some air signs, particularly Gemini] may be more in touch with the influence of the rational mind and the material world of success and attainment. This is not to say that the these signs do not have the capacity to reach these higher realms of being, only that they may have to thread their way through material demands and cogent mental processes which they will meet along their life’s route.)

For those Water signs that have allowed the intuitive side of their being to mature and those who have put faith in the unseen, there is potential for them to get more in touch with their unconscious mind or their higher self. When in tune and fully awakened, the Water signs are known as the most intuitive and subliminally sensitive signs of the Zodiac.

Some become so encapsulated with this realm of emotion and sensitive vibration that they tend to loose themselves in their feelings. They, in turn, become vulnerable to outside forces and are susceptible to feelings of hurt and anguish which can lead some into depths of depression. They can be captive agents of their emotions and must find their rational mind which is hidden in the depths of their consciousness. Nurturing their rational mind will unravel all this sensitivity and channel it into constructive outlets, such as in-depth psychoanalysis and the ability to disassociate with inner turmoil.

The positive use of the Water element furnishes an outlet for these individual’s emotional responses. They should channel their sensitivity to assist others undergoing intense psychodrama in their lives. Intuition and psychic potential have their specified place in this world and the best avenue of expression is one of service. These gifts are not to be squandered or wasted on self-promotion or to manipulate their energies for self-gratification and/or intentional control over others so that they benefit from their intuitive perception. Psychic inclinations are best used to assist others and can never be used to promote the self in any way.

Finding their place in the world is paramount for most of these Water individuals and selfless service is the quickest avenue to uncovering their specific role.
