The compatibility of elements by far is the most overlooked aspect in astrology. Quite comfortably we look into which sign gets along with which one, but never take time to understand how their fate depends largely on the elements. Yes, they can make or break a relationship because in nature, they either work in harmony or clash, leaving astrological signs either lovers or enemies. Before we can in details about it have a look at the elements and signs that fall under each.

The Enemies
Do you ever wonder why water to put out fire? It is simple chemistry. In order to stay alive, fire needs heat, oxygen and fuel. Water gets rid of the heat and that puts out the fire. Astrologically, this means that water signs tend to take away the excitement from the fire signs. Consequently, the two groups usually have trouble getting along with each other.

The story of air and earth is similar, but what is absent between the two is reaction. The air can try to touch the solid earth, but none will feel anything from it. In loose form, however, it will blow with the air, but at one point because of its heaviness it will have to fall and settle somewhere. This explains why air signs are incompatible with earth signs. Just like air, Gemini, Libra and Aquarius have a need for movement. But earth signs are happy to stay in one place. This is one reason why the two often end up leaving each other.


The worst relationship is often seen between the fire and earth signs. In the beginning, the two groups do feel attracted to each other. This is the sizzling effect of fire touching the earth. Sexually it is more visible. Sadly, according to Chemistry, fire tends to ruin not just the upper portion of the soil, but also deep down inside. In brief, all properties become the target. What this astrologically means is that due to incompatibility, fire signs affect the earth signs both physically and psychologically.

The lovers
Moist earth becomes loose; giving us the ability to grow in it fruits or make things out of it. Now who makes this earth moist? It is none other than the water which is the epitome of all emotions. Without it, earth is barren. In astrology, this signals that water signs rejuvenate earth signs. When the two groups come together they help each other make things that otherwise would be impossible for them to do individually. The two can still clash. This comes from too much water which eventually leave soil completely muddy.

Air reacts to fire in the same way. As a matter of fact, fire needs oxygen from air to stay alive. Sometimes the air can even spread the fire. That is why, in astrology, we see air signs being highly compatible with fire signs. Both are adventurous and both have a need to be on the move. They too can clash. Remember that when air gets too heavy it puts out the fire.

How about air and water? Water gets its moving ability from air. The two cannot mix unless the water changes into vapor. Air can also cool down the water. This is a hint that air signs can influence water signs, but clashes will always be apparent.

I imagined the fire sign literally setting the poor earth sign on fire after a fight over having a budget.

Changed physically and mentally for life.

The names of signs and elements exist at many ages. The name of elements and signs make all sense, thats because many people are fond of astrology, we have patterns.

I recall my epiphanies about it.

Water puts out fire. Ties make wind, wind flames fire, lack of it fire goes of and we have calm earth that only "get really wet" with water.

Water is the source of all life.
Earth is all about pleasure, wich are the best with water, some moist, the joning, two to be one.
Water make air evolve, making connections air evolve, evolve, evolve, mankind evolve. Air flames fire and fire calms the cold that air may have, or man has.

Water makes wind start, wind feeds fire
Earth is the source of earthy things that can be destroyed by Fire
Earth its self can put fire out keeping them to breed while water tries to diminuish fire with time. With a flood of emotions water can also put fire out.
Earth and Water, one is there, other helps to make life worth it.

So Water and Earth are more cooperative
Air is an oportunist, they (man) take advantage of every corner, with water and earth they wind it all over. Air feeds fire and together they go to extremes, to balance the word of earth and water domain. But a flame alive keeps us warm, that earth keeps life under their protection.

I've been entertaining my thoughts with this topic.


There are few angles to it. For example, my chart is mostly fire. Much more then having an airy partner to stir up my fire or fiery partner to intensify it (cause I got it enough already as it is), I find balance in a partner with earth and water. To soothe my fire. To wash it down a bit or in case of earth, figuratively speaking to give her ground, solid place, to burn.

LostPisces has a point.

this is a great description of elements.



air needs to move.....move move.... fire has the ability to destroy earth too much? psychologically...

and fire will get super depressed with too much water....water will destroy fire....and the poor fire will burn out ....depressed. water and air

Earth moves slowly & steadily with purpose

. Air is like a dog chasing its tail.

What if everyone said not going to work but it does regardless?
