Description
This chart here shows the many patterns of the Astrological customs and how they align with their essential Classical Elements.In the Philosophy of Quadralities, the concept imposes that there are four main essential substances of which are of either a Fire, Earth, Air, or Water Elemental. This philosophy has been applied to other philosophic and occult practices, such as the Worlds in Kabbalah, the Humors in Alchemy, and to the Elements in Astrology. That which is of a Fire Elemental is Ambitious, Intuitional and Willing, where that which is of an Earth Elemental is Practical, Sensational and Physical, as that which is of an Air Elemental is Intellectual, Mental and Thinking while that which is of a Water Elemental is Emotional, Spiritual, and Feeling.
In Astrology, there are many concepts such as Seasons, the Elements themselves, Qualities, Polarities, etc., all of which are in cycles and patterns that help define the traits of the Zodiac. There are Twelve Signs that are patterned into Four Quadrants as cycled through the yearly Seasons:
I: Aries = Spring
II: Taurus = Spring
III: Gemini = Spring
IV: Cancer = Summer
V: Leo = Summer
VI: Virgo = Summer
VII: Libra = Autumn
VIII: Scorpio = Autumn
IX: Sagittarius = Autumn
X: Capricorn = Winter
XI: Aquarius = Winter
XII: Pisces = Winter
That which is in Spring is of the Elemental of Air, as Spring is Wet and Hot as it is the Season where the Earth revives of life and becomes Active; that which is in the Summer is of the Elemental of Fire, as Summer is Hot and Dry as it is the Season where the Earth's temperature is increased; that which is in Autumn is of the Elemental of Earth, as Autumn is Dry and Cold as it is the Season where the Earth dies of life and becomes Passive; and that which is in Winter is the of the Elemental of Water, as Winter is Cold and Wet as it is the Season where the Earth's temperature is decreased.
In the philosophy of the Tarot and in the religion of Wicca, the Elements of the Seasons are attributed according to the Initiating Sign of the Season:
Spring: Aries, Taurus, Gemini = Fire
Summer: Cancer, Leo, Virgo = Water
Autumn: Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius = Air
Winter: Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces = Earth
Spring is Intuitional and Willing as the Wand that Forces in leading Emanation, while Summer is Spiritual and Feeling as the Cup that Patterns in supporting Creation, where Autumn is Mental and Thinking as the Sword that Activates in following Formation and Winter is Vital and Sensing as the Coin that Forms in resulting Materialization.
Each Zodiac Sign is attributed one of the Three Quality Modes of either Cardinal, Fixed or Mutable. In the Kabbalic Hebrew concept of the Three Mothers, each figure is empowered with one of the Three main Elementals:
Cardinal: Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn = Fire
Fixed: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius = Air
Mutable: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces = Water
The Cardinal Quality is Initiative, Active and Personal as the Creatively Adolescent Soul, the Fixed Quality is Consistent, Stable and Social as the Physically Mature Body, and the Mutable Quality is Flexible, Passive and Universal as the Intellectually Elder Spirit.
Most importantly of all, every Zodiac is attributed with the Four Classical Elements themselves which are said to be the essential behavior of the Signs. Each Sign is correlated in a cycling Elemental pattern that Trines them in good compatibility:
Fire = Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Earth = Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
Air = Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
Water = Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
That which is of Fire is Ambitious, Egotistic and Philosophic as the Masculine King Father, where that which is of Earth is Practical, Material and Serviceable as the Feminine Page Daughter, while that which is of Air is Intellectual, Rebellious and Communicative as the Masculine Knight Son, as that which is of Water is Emotional, Sexual and Illusionary as the Feminine Queen Mother.
