Element Combinations with Earth
Taurus,Virgo,Capricorn & Aquarius,Gimini,Libra
The heavy concentration of the combination of Earth and Air in your traits can indicate an alternating pull between the abstract-conceptual and the more mundane practical-efficiency orientations. Properly focused, this blending allows combining intellectual and conceptual awareness with a practical sense of harmony and concrete objectives. In other words, you are a thinker and you possess some common sense; a good combination. There is a fairly dry, detached sort of logic that allows you to deal with a volume of facts or figures without getting overwhelmed with the detail. Stress never bothers you much. Emotionalism is never a problem either.
Earth and Water Type
Taurus,Virgo,Capricorn & Pisces,Cancer,Scorpio
A lot of earth and water often produces persons displaying much depth, seriousness, and a strong sense of self-protectiveness in all activities. They are apt to be a hard worker, for earth/water types don't seem to be happy unless they have some burden, either emotionally or in everyday work. These placements are very conscious of survival needs, and other issues of security, and others' reliance on their solidity and resources. Therefore, much of your energy is used in an effort to maintain or obtain resources, and there is great attachment to money, possessions, job, children, and other security factors. You have endurance and an ability to survive through any calamity. Their attachment to security and to rather traditional values is often manifested in a strong adherence to family, home, and community responsibility. The negative side of earth/water types is becoming too attached to the past and rather fearful of the present and the future. Positive thinking and forming ideals may be your challenge.
Earth & Fire type
Taurus,Virgo,Capricorn & Aries,Leo, Sagittarius
When the elements of Fire and Earth combine, the result is potentially powerful and creative. Fire provides action and Earth looks for tangible results. The Earth elements give sustaining power to the drive from self-expression symbolized by the Fire elements. The rapid-fire inspirations of Fire are grounded by the Earth so that energies can be conserved and focused. A problem with this combination is a degree of insensitivity that is usually present. When moving toward a goal there is little concern for anything or anyone that gets in your way. You may need to cultivate attention to ideals and your own inner life. In any event, the key words for the elements in your chart are steadiness, reliability, and productivity.

Lack of Earth
The limited presence of the Earth element in a personality suggests that there is some difficulties dealing with practical and mundane issues; in fact it may be said that these types are not really at home on the planet Earth. They may seem to be somehow lost in space and unable to get their feet on the ground. Because of this responsibility weighs them down and there is trouble getting organized and following through on a task. It's manifested in a childish inability to handle mundane tasks, and they may be one of those people who needs help to accomplish the simplest fix-up chore. Material matter and money may be secondary concerns, and may not be particularly interested in earthly possessions and material gain. Sometimes persons with an absence of Earth compensate by expressing a compulsive trait toward neatness and detail, and a forced concern for organization. More often, the absence of earth signs means good old fashioned common sense may not be your strong suit.

Saturation of Earth
Taurus,Virgo,Capricorn
Earth Types are and slow developing & concrete personality. Although earth types are very sensual & love luxurious things they are not imaginative or innovative they are comfortable with a predictable settings. Cautious, premeditated, conventional, and systematic. Earth types live by a practical, common sense code; stable, and concerned with physical well-being rather than spiritual attainment. They are quite responsible and a bit rigid, methodical and detail-conscious. The term "down to earth" may fit quite well. It might be said that they are one of those people who is very well adjusted to life on this planet. A concern for the physical or material world makes you very much the realist. They are an organizer, a builder, and a hard-worker. The earth sign traits provide personalities with the skills and attitude necessary to succeed readily in the world of business. So pragmatic, they don't often gamble or take unnecessary chances. Earth types understand the reality of a situation and understand value, both in a material and in a human sense.
Their approach to people is much the same as their approach to life. They are reliable and steadfast. They are predictable and don't like surprises. Dependability, diligence and a pragmatic, no-nonsense approach to life are your greatest strengths. Lack of ideas or imagination, dullness, rigid conservatism, extreme materialism, and blind adherence to rules and regulations are your potential faults.

Every person comes with this yet we Ignore it everyday in every way in every situation. No wonder we have So many messed up people. Imagine cooking food without
knowing how to prepare it.
Element combination with Fire.
Fire and Earth type
Aries,Leo,Sagittarius & Taurus,Virgo,Capricorn
When the elements of Fire and Earth combine within a soul personality, the result is a potentially powerful and creative person. Fire provides action and Earth looks for tangible results. The Earth elements give sustaining power to the drive from self-expression symbolized by the Fire elements. The rapid-fire inspirations of Fire are grounded by the Earth so that energies can be conserved and focused. A problem with this combination is a degree of insensitivity that is usually present. When moving toward a goal there is little concern for anything or anyone that gets in your way. You may need to cultivate attention to ideals and your own inner life. In any event, the key words for the elements in your chart are steadiness, reliability, and productivity.
Fire and Air Type
Aries,Leo,Sagittarius & Aquarius,Gemini,Libra
With the planets in your chart concentrated in Fire and Air you are idealistic, aspiring, and positive-thinking. You have the best of intentions and motives, but your approach to life may not be completely realistic. You have the ability to put your ideas into action, but you may neglect your emotional and material or physical needs. You probably have a keen sense of humor and a very effective way with words. At its best this is a very creative combination. The problem is getting things done as you are a person that is not well grounded in the persistent traits normally required to see the job through to completion. As full of ideas and enthusiasm as you are, energies may be scattered, and you must realize that you can't just pour out your energies unreservedly without simultaneously tuning in on your deeper resources if you're to avoid a state of constant depletion.
Fire and Water Type
Aries,Leo,Sagittarius & Pisces,Cancer, Scorpio.
The heavy emphasis on Fire and Water elements in your chart would indicate a general tendency to express everything emotionally, excitedly, and rather impulsively. There is often a lack of logical, systematic thought and procedure, with a resulting restlessness and subjective bias. This combination has intensity, emotional extremes, and surprising sensitivity to what others think of them. You are a "whole-hogger," having a marked lack of self-restraint. You may experience big swings in moods. You function in a high-pressure state, and you do best when being challenged.
The lack of Fire
The limited presence of the Fire element in your traits may suggest the need to experience life more actively. It may benefit you to become more vital, for you may lack the passion and spark that the fire signs afford. This doesn't mean that you don't enjoy life, but merely that you don't seem to know how to insert yourself into the action; pleasure, thrills and glory will be slow coming your way. Your pleasures are apt to be more subtle and sensitive, without the dramatics and flash. Although this void does not guarantee an introvert, you are not likely to be the extrovert. You lack the intangibles of a dare-devil courage that comes naturally for fire signs, and this includes the utter self-confidence these signs bestow. Because of this, you may like to stand back and let the other person make the first move in an encounter. If anything, you underestimate your abilities and value. You like to test the water before you jump in, and a competitive person can hold you back sometimes. By underrating your abilities, you are apt to often end up assisting others whose talents are less than your own, but whose reflection drive and desire is greater. Actually, you don't like having the spotlight on you, and you may prefer such a subordinate role.
Self-expression, both emotional and creative, may be difficult for you. In some cases, a person lacking fire in their chart may try to force self-expression and many of the more aggressive fire sign traits in order to compensate for the lack of these traits. Characteristic of this would be the less than talented, over-achiever in a sport who attains a modest level of skill and the ability to win through extreme hard work and long years of perseverance.

A saturation of the FIRE element
THE FOUR ELEMENTS
Fire, Air, Earth, and Water; the Triplicities
Fire, Air, Earth, and Water, the four elements, sometimes called the Triplicities, play an important part in Perception & Behavior. The term triplicities comes from the fact that there are three signs associated with each of the four elements.
Here are the signs divided by element:
Fire.....Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius
Earth.....Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
Air.....Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
Water....Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
When these elements are translated as personality traits or temperament, they become important features of the delineation. Here are brief readings of each of the four elements and delineations of a situation when one's chart contains two of the elements having similar strength. For the few who have a balance in elements, the concepts of elements should be considered balanced. That is they tend to reflect common sense (earth), action orientation (fire), thinking and communication skills (air), and the ability to feel and intuitively know (water) in reasonable proportion and don't rely overly on any of these traits at the expense of another.
Just as it is important to observe the element that is strongest in the chart, it is also important to note the element, if any, that is not significantly represented in the horoscope. A reading, that may be appropriate when such an absence is noted, is also provided below.
Many astrologers consider the element of each of the planets when determining which of the elements may be more significant in a horoscope. My method for evaluating the strength of an element in a birth chart is to assign a value of 4 to the element associated with the Sun; the Moon element is assigned a value of 3; Mercury, Venus, and Mars sign elements are assigned a value of 2 each, and Jupiter and Saturn each have a value of 1. Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are disregarded because their element is more societal affecting large groups of individuals born during a period. Using this approach, if as many as 8 points are concentrated in one element, it is considered a preponderance in that element.
Everyone should get this Book!
Astrology, Psychology and the Four Elements by Stephen
This book relates astrology to modern psychology and explains the use of astrology as a practical method of understanding one's attunement to universal forces. It clearly shows how to approach astrology with a real understanding of the energies involved, and it includes practical instruction in the interpretation of astrological factors with more depth than is commonly found in astrological textbooks. It was awarded the Astrology Prize by the British Astrological Association.

Virgo:The Seething Heat of Earth
The subject in Mind today is Virgo the pliable & intelligent inferno. All descriptions fit the mysterious Virgo nature that is capable of various displays of behavior based on the Situation & History by which any one of them may have emerged.
The young Virgo is undemonstrative and compliant taking the role of a bystander to most situations. Silently taking inventory of every situation & detail desiring to called on for assistance yet lacking the assertiveness to be noticed. Gradually over time these silent supportive bystanders come into their own as they progress into the initiative taking communicative socialite behavior of Libra. No longer passive or undemonstrative they totally own the traits of Cardinal & Air while attaining their original nature to be supportive & adaptable. Most of all possessing the power & ability for explosive volcanic tempers that insure their message comes across very clear what's important to them (Details & perfection).
Of all Earth Signs Virgo enjoys the company of any fire most of all Sagittarius which inspires their desire to be creative & opinionated.

Cancer: Water Must Crash
Why & How does this happen?
Cancer is born in a Liquid state of consciousness in which moods have enough energy to move over and around situations, but not beat all attracting forces. When Cancers progresses it moves into Leo which heats their temperament and activates the mood into assertiveness. The progression into Leo shifts their mentality from emotional to intellectual. Deepening the complexity of explaining their actions or making any sense of their feelings. This nature shifts from instinctual behavior to analytical explanations articulated by their feelings in solid comprehension what was once beyond their awareness at an earlier age. Maturing from a misty personality to a liquid form of water crashing their emotions on any situation asserting their views and feelings.
Of all water signs Cancer most needs the stability of Earth so they may Crash these passionate emotions that Leo progression brings on to solid ground of Taurus,Virgo or Capricorn.

Intangible Health Issues
Aries
Aries can readily take up the challenge and the fight involved with chronic illness. Aries’ dislike restrictions in life resulting in major frustration dampening their usual spirit. They do not like how symptoms of illness slow them down. Most likely, Aries will be the first to join support groups and start treatment plans. They love to turn the focus on themselves by claiming pioneer status and sole rights to their illness. Taking up the challenge they are prone to headaches and burnout when stress levels are high. Side effects of illness include regressive psychological behaviors like that of a two year old.
Needs attention, parent figures, validation and home made comfort food.
Taurus
Taurus enjoy practical monitoring of food intake and outgoing. Only the really fanatic Taurus person will study the quality of their daily stool. The Taurus person conserves their energy through careful management and by grazing on foods. They tend to eat sweet foods including ice cream when they are tired and indolent. Stubbornness is a classic trait for the bull however patience can be their virtue too. Especially when dealing with symptoms and planning specialist appointments. Taurus people benefit from sensual touch (massage etc) and permissions to be lazy when managing illness. They have a potential to become stingy and possessive when stressed. The grass is always greener they say and the Taurus values his sense of security above all. Obsessiveness, Sore throats and Irritable Bowel Syndrome are some illness symptoms.
Gemini
The Gemini has a multi planned approach to living with illness. In one respect they will deny having an illness while on the other hand over-worry about being ill. Confusion is the worst enemy of the Gemini. They tend to write, read and discuss general symptoms with others to make sense of their own symptoms. They set up new social networks and acquaintances in pursuit of managing illness. Different friends or associates are utilized at different times for managing illness. Perhaps they cannot accept that the two parts of them are ill together. They become fidgety and show loss of Identity while managing illness. Their thinking style is fitting of the ADHD profiles with illness and symptomatic stress.
Quiet dark rooms are antithetical but helpful for Gemini’s healing.
Cancer
These people find comfort by spending time at home with family. Being sensitive and intuitive to changes in their bodies, Cancer types tend to build psychological barriers and accumulate stress. They will nurture others to stay inwardly strong themselves. Fluid retention and digestive issues need management during illness. This Star sign may have a tendency to lie about their health condition or only discuss what others might prefer to hear. Sometimes they don’t really know all the facts about their illness so it isn’t really lying. Is it? Symptoms of illness include a potential for hysterics and vast mood shifts while managing their illness.
Staying in bed, taking baths, going to counseling and pampering self are helpful and healthy-treatment plans.
http://kenoath.wordpress.com/Music Therapy
For those with Theoretical (Sag,Cap,Aqu,Pis), Emotional (Ari,Tur,Gem,Can) traits or heavy Neptune influence. I recommend Music Therapy to break overwhelming moods of negativity or psychic blocks. Find music for the mood you desire to be in (joyous,happy or peaceful) play the music. Do not listen but feel....let the music douse your soul as you become transformed by the melody allow it to come through you and begin to sing with it and become the music soon after your negative vibes will be released and you will be refreshed.
(Why did I exclude the Intellectual signs? This method can be effective for (Leo,Virgo,Libra,Scorpio) However; these types thrive on facts not moods.What relieves intellectual signs are conclusions to equations).

Cancer:Main Function:
The fourth sign of the zodiac is very sensitive and lives on an emotional roller coaster from day to day. Because the Moon rules this sign and the Moon changes signs every two and a half days, Cancers are subject to extreme moodiness and the need to navigate their feelings on a constant basis.Cancer people are decidedly receptive and nurturing, particularly to those who need some TLC. Cancer is the sign that rules the Mother, and these people are very maternal, often becoming the neighborhood caretaker, or the one whose house everyone gravitates toward. And like many mothers, these folks can be domineering and control-oriented.
Gemini: Main Function:
Geminis are very social, able to strike up a conversation with a total stranger as though they’ve been friends forever. Their uncanny capacity for familiarity helps them to make connections with others, which is their main objective. Gemini’s are here to gather all the information they can, to gain knowledge, to learn something new, and then to share it all with others.
Taurus: Main Function
Taurus people are solid, strong and reliable. These are among the most practical, realistic people in the world, and they insist on tangible proof before trusting in anything. The second sign of the zodiac is extremely pragmatic, takes one step at a time, with feet solidly planted on the ground. More than any other, this sign is concerned with financial security and is extremely money-oriented.
Aries: Main Function
The first sign of the zodiac is the pioneer, the risk taker, the one to get things started, and the one to try out what has never been tried before. (Captain James T. Kirk was an Aries). Aries people are spontaneous, impulsive and self-motivated. They don’t ask permission, and they tend to move on to something new before most people even realize what they’re doing (including themselves).Aries people are leaders, but they don’t necessarily think of themselves that way. They do what interests them, and that frequently takes them to the top. An amazing number of executives and CEO’s are Aries people.

What is....A Life Map
You have searched me, LORD, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue
you, LORD, know it completely. You hem me in behind and before,
and you lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain. Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,” even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,
I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand—when I awake, I am still with you.
Psalm 139
Many of us seek self Glory. We have chosen our own path but have you considered that your plans have been made already. Were we born of our own Will? We call it our Biological clock. We are taught to ignore that fact to keep hope alive to strive for what we want in the name of free will.
If we missed our fate, too early or too late then it becomes a burden. If you are religious I'll equate this with the life of Jesus (the Christ). If you remember in the gospels how He wouldn't allow others to force the situation until the proper time and how He would pray for strength to keep Himself disciplined according to the will of The Father. The will of the Father is in our Natal Chart aka biological clock. Sarah wouldn't wait for Gods timing told Abraham to sleep with the maid then that child became the rival to her child that she finally had in the time God had promised by Abraham her husband.
With that in Mind have you realized God has made plans for you from the beginning? Have you considered those plans? I call this World Earth University and those plans that are made a Life Syllabus, that Syllabus is known as a Natal Chart. Good Book Says{A man’s heart plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps.}{It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honor of kings is to search out a matter.}{Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.}Discover yours.
