When it comes to love and romance via the cosmos, no one knows more than our own Astrologer W.C. Moriarity. From his teachings, we've compiled the first in a series on the four Elements - Fire, Earth, Air and Water. So study up! And put yourself that much further ahead in the game of love.
Where smoke, there's FIRE!
The Fire Signs can sizzle with passion and are comprised of Aries, Leo and Sagittarius. They also tend to be impulsive, driven, and love the thrill of the chase.
When romancing a Fire Sign, it's of utmost importance to know how to maintain their interest. The Fire Signs love a challenge, especially in the romance department. Yet, they can easily be distracted by a new challenge. And they become bored far more easily than most other signs of the zodiac. You need to keep them interested and guessing. In other words, predictability is not a positive aspect of a relationship for someone of this fiery symbol.
Not surprisingly, Fire Signs enjoy new experiences and can't resist a playful sparring session, because, to a Fire Sign, it's the best kind of foreplay. Fire Signs can be total fun. And they make exciting partners. A person who is a Fire Sign is usually a great conversationalist and they're always on a quest of some sort, so boredom won't be a problem. And if you need a party date, call a Fire Sign, as they're usually the life of the party. Charismatic and charming, they own (and demand) the center of attention. So, if you're looking for romantic sparks, a Fire Sign is one hot ticket.
Exploring the FIRE Signs
LEOS are the most romantic of the Fire Signs. A Leo's desire for romance is only equal to his or her need for drama. They can be easily swept off their feet by big displays of affection. Leos are steadfast believers in the concept of true love. But they have sensitive egos and require a lot of affection and attention in a relationship. Motto: Love will conquer all.
SAGITTARIUS can be the most fun sign of the Fire Signs. They're always up for an adventure. A relationship with a Sagittarius rarely gets stale, but they are most difficult to pin down because they do not like to settle down. When you're in a relationship with a Sagittarius, the thrill of the chase is of utmost importance, so keep them guessing and they'll keep interested. Motto: The grass is always greener.
ARIES is the most independent of the Fire Signs. Thus, Aries like to appear detached. But they do welcome a challenge and will chase someone they're interested in. Aries often view love as a game and flirtations are all part of it. If humor is important in a mate, an Aries can keep you laughing. However, you'll have to be the flexible one in a relationship because this sign will not easily compromise his or her lifestyle for anyone. Motto: Love is fun, but not required.
EARTH to Houston ?
Like a rocket scientist, the Earth Signs are logical, pragmatic and dependable. They are the most bottom-line oriented of the entire zodiac. Being the highly rational type, individuals born under an Earth Sign cannot relate to irrational outbursts or be bothered by frivolity. However, they do value and seek security and stability. The Earth Signs are comprised of Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn.
When romancing an Earth Sign, dependability is vital - punctuality scores extra.You can always count on an Earth Sign to do what they say. But they will expect the same from you in return. So be prepared to do it. And should you fail this Earth Sign, you'll be hard pressed to gain back his or her confidence or trust. Earth Signs have little patience for silliness, detest drama (especially in relationships) and like to see results in whatever they've invested their time. So don't waste your time - or your Earth Sign's - by crying over spilled milk. If you're looking for sympathy, you won't get it. And remember, this common sense individual does not get in a relationship simply for a good time. In fact, they see all their relationships as serving some practical purpose in life.
Exploring the EARTH Signs
TAURUS is the most loyal of the Earth Signs and they are also one of the most reliable people you can become involved with. However, if a Taurus feels there is an issue of trust, this bull will bolt! Taurus is also the most romantic and affectionate of the Earth Signs. And because they crave security and stability, you can usually get to a Taurus' heart via the stomach. To keep your Taurus happy, the key elements are food, comfort and plenty of hugs. One caution: never push a Taurus. The bull sign is very stubborn, and as the most hardheaded Earth Sign, the more you push - the more a bull will resist. Motto: Feed me and I'm yours.
VIRGO is the most logical of the Earth Signs. They are analytical, rational and everybody's biggest critic. So don't be surprised to get constant critiques from your Virgo. A Virgo will pick anything apart to examine its pieces in order to solve a problem. Virgos love to argue but they don't see it as a confrontation or attack. To a Virgo an argument is simply an exchange of ideas. But don't try to persuade a Virgo without grounding yourself in solid reasoning. Likewise, instances of highly charged emotions or irrationality will cause your Virgo to lose their patience quickly. Virgos require a lot of mental stimulation. And the most exciting aphrodisiac to a Virgo is engaging in an intellectual conversation, especially if they're learning something new. Motto: Stimulate the mind and the body will follow.
CAPRICORN is the most practical of the Earth Signs. They are also one of the most hardworking and ambitious signs of the entire zodiac. Even as a newlywed, don't be surprised if your Capricorn seems preoccupied with their career. They are not known to be the romantic type nor into emotions. But, they are excellent providers, protective in nature, and reliable. Capricorns value loyalty and are quick to defend those they love. Achievement-oriented as they are, Capricorns put an importance on status and material success. So the more you can aid and support a Capricorn's interests and ambitions, the faster you'll win this sign's heart. Motto: You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours.
Coming up for AIR
The AIR SIGNS are the most social creatures of the zodiac, and their social lives are an important part of their identity. Craving constant variety, they are typically not disciplined individuals. And while Air Signs are not afraid to commit, they may not be cut out for it, as they can be superficial in their emotional development. Air Signs are fun and lively companions, although they may not be the best life companions. When it comes to Air Signs, think energy. Gemini, Libra and Aquarius comprise this vivacious element.
When romancing an Air Sign, don't let things get too habitual or your Air Sign may move onto someone new, simply for change. Since Air Signs tend to be fickle, keep yours busy guessing - and therefore happiest - with little surprises and a good shakeup every now and then. The Air Signs embrace spontaneity, need activity, and demand action. So if you're up for an exciting challenge, an Air Sign won't let you down.
Exploring the AIR Signs
GEMINI is the most adaptable of the Air Signs. They are friendly, flexible, charming and talkative. A Gemini can fit in with most any crowd. Quick minds and quick to speak, a Gemini can jump into any conversation with ease and just as easily hop from one topic to another. The sign of the Twins has the ability to see opposing viewpoints, and therefore, are often willing to compromise in an argument. However, a Gemini can instantly change his or her mind at the drop of a hat and often does. This may make them appear fickle or two-faced. But it just may drive you crazy trying to keep up with their changing opinions. Keep in mind that your Gemini is a natural born talker and can put a spin on any story that benefits them. They can also be easily distracted and need more variety than all the other Air Signs. But they make fun and stimulating partners, ideal travel companions and stimulating conversationalists. Spontaneous and up for any change in plans, a Gemini loves to meet new people and see new places. After all, the Twins are born to have dual identities. Motto: Variety is the spice of life.
LIBRA is the most charming and likely to be partnered up of the Air Signs. The sign of the Scales seeks out harmony and balance, and shrinks from conflict and discord. So don't create drama or put things in disarray if you want to keep your Libra happy. In relationships, Libras would rather compromise than fight in order to keep the peace. For a Libra, companionship is a must. The Scales need another person in their life to feel balanced. If you need a dinner date that won't upstage or, worse, embarrass you, call a Libra. The Libras are adept at the social graces, and making others feel at ease. They know how to behave properly given any situation. Their pleasant demeanor charms them into favor, which makes them even more charming. But, take note, their charm and magnetism can lead to indiscreet situations since people are constantly drawn to them along with frequent temptations. Aesthetics play an important role for the Libras and they seek out visual harmony and balance. You may find more Libras than any other sign who are artistically inclined. Motto: Can't we all just get along?
AQUARIUS is the most unconventional of the Air Signs. They are one of the most unique and independent of the zodiac. Don't tell your Aquarius what to do or how to do it. Aquarians have their own way of doing things and no one can tell them otherwise. Commonly described as obstinate and unorthodox, the Aquarian delights in being different and going against the grain. They can stir up trouble just for the sake of it. Conspiracy theories. Personal philosophies. Aquarians love their own groove aka routine, which may not make sense to anyone else, but they have to follow it. So leave your Aquarian plenty of space to do his or her own thing. No nagging. If you're understanding and accepting of their idiosyncrasies, as well as supportive of their causes and beliefs, you'll keep your Aquarian happy. Aquarians are extremely social beings with lots of contacts. They can be spontaneous, stimulating and very interesting partners. Motto: Don't tread on me.
It's a WATER world
The WATER Signs are the most sensitive, emotional and romantic of the zodiac. They are dreamers who need a sympathetic ear, compassion and tender-loving care. A Water Sign loves to be in love, and enjoys getting lost in the experience of love. A Water Sign seeks a spiritual connection with their lover, akin to a transcendental journey. However, lofty notions of love can color a Water Sign's judgment. The mythic fairy tale romance can sometimes leave them disappointed by the reality of relationships. The Water Signs are comprised of Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces.
When romancing a Water Sign, it's important to do the little things that show you care. Surprise your Water Sign with small romantic gestures and it'll go a long way. Ignore their emotional needs and your Water Sign's love may fade away. But if you're sensitive to your Water Sign's changing moods and emotions, your relationship should proceed swimmingly.
Exploring the WATER Signs
CANCER is the homebody of the Water Signs. Many Cancers have a strong connection with their parents. They are also the moodiest of the Water Signs because Cancer's emotions are constantly going through different phases, like the moon, which is their ruling planet. Therefore, it can be difficult to predict your Cancer's moods. As trust is tantamount to Cancers, you must earn a crab's trust before they will expose their soft core. Comfort and security is also important in a partner to Cancers. They are perfectly content staying home with good food and someone they love, as a Cancer's home serves as their safe haven. Like a crab, they can appear tough on the outside, but are quite vulnerable beneath their shell. Thus, penetrating the shell requires patience and sensitivity. Cancers have a need to nurture the ones they love and need some nurturing in return. So, make your Cancer feel loved, secure and protected, and they'll never leave home. Motto: Home is where the heart is.
SCORPIO is the most intense of the Water Signs. They may seem calm and placid on the surface, but you can be assured that there are strong emotions simmering just below the waterline, and they are often driven by these underlying emotions. Typically, Scorpios are very serious individuals who take their relationships just as serious, expecting complete, unequivocal loyalty. If you want to get anywhere with a Scorpio, do not cross them. If you do, it may take a lifetime for your Scorpio to forgive you, as they will never forget it. Scorpios have a tendency to be possessive, territorial and jealous. And because they do not usually reveal all that they are thinking, they can appear mysterious. Never one to naturally tip their hand, it takes extra effort to get into the head of your Scorpio. It takes time to develop a relationship with a Scorpio, but once you do, they can be one of the most intensely passionate lovers you will ever know because they aren't afraid to express their intense passion. Demonstrate to your Scorpio that he or she is your number one priority, and your Scorpio will be forever yours -- with a passion! Motto: Still waters run deep.
PISCES is the most compassionate of the Water Signs. They are also the most intuitive and self-sacrificing of the zodiac as they are often willing to forego their own interests for their partner's interests. More than any other sign, Pisces are keenly in tune with other people's emotions, which can be both good and bad. They pick up on the vibrations of the others around them like emotional sponges, and therefore, they can be highly influenced by others. Therefore, Pisces do not handle the negative emotions well. To compound things, they can be highly impressionable, so if you're feeling upset, your Pisces will too. Perhaps, this is why the Pisces are the real dreamers of the zodiac, preferring fantasy to the real world and getting lost in fantasies. So, put on a happy face, surround your Pisces with positive people, shielding them from the harsh realities of the world, and you'll keep your Pisces happy as a clam -- or fish. Motto: I dream, therefore I am.
