As a professional astrologer, people ask me all kinds of questions. Among the most common curiosities is: “What is the best zodiac sign?” With that evil twin, “What’s the worst zodiac sign?” I appreciate all your astrology questions, including zodiac sign compatibility, but let me be clear: there are no winners or losers in astrology. In fact, once you enter the metaphysical realm (the world of stars, tarot cards, tea leaves, etc.), the black-and-white binary goes straight out the window. In this magical and mystical realm, we value nuance.
Every zodiac sign is a powerful and important piece of the zodiac puzzle. All four elements – Air Sign, Fire Sign, Water Sign, and Earth Sign – work together to form a comprehensive whole that manifests in your life as unique personality traits. Astrology is a very complex study, but the most basic principles are centered around the 12 well-known constellations of the zodiac. Over the centuries, each zodiac sign has developed its own associations, such as myths, animals, and colors, as well as its own characteristics. Every zodiac sign is illuminated by its perspective and has powerful strengths and exhausting weaknesses.
From an astronomical point of view, we know that the Sun does not move because its stability holds the entire solar system in place. But from our vantage point here on Earth, the sun is constantly moving. We depend on its daily performance (such as impressive sunrises and dramatic sunsets) and its position in the sky. The position occupied by the Sun at the exact moment you were born is known as your Sun Sign (sometimes called Zodiac Sign or Birth Sign), and for both beginners and professional astrologers, it is the starting point of the universe . (Your rising sign is another very important placement, which you can read about in our rising sign guide here). Your Sun sign is determined by your date of birth and represents your core personality, sense of self, basic preferences, romantic compatibility, and how you navigate the world. This astrological placement shines a light on your natural talents and blind spots. Your joys, wishes, flaws, and fears make you special, and when your Sun sign is combined with other planets and birth chart placements, a unique celestial profile is created that acts as your cosmic fingerprint. will be done.
Understood? good. Now let’s take this to the next level. The 12 zodiac signs are also divided into four triadic and three tetrad subgroups. Don’t worry if it seems a little confusing. There is a way to clear up this confusion. The Triplicity refers to the elements of the four zodiac signs, with each group having three signs: the fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius), the earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn). , air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius), and water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces). Generally speaking, Fire signs are passionate and energetic, Earth signs are practical and down-to-earth, Air signs are intelligent and curious, and Water signs are intuitive and emotional. It’s a target.
