Is there any way to guess someone’s astrological element? It’s astonishing when it happens but it’s not so easy and requires a lot of practice and a deep understanding of astrology. Here’s an easier solution!
Here’s the first step of a very simple approach that allows anyone to guess anybody’s astrological element (with a little bit of practice of course).
And the good news is: there are in fact ONLY 4 astrological elements: Fire, Air, Water, and Earth. Every zodiac sign belongs to one of these four elements. And here is how they relate:
The Fire Signs are Passionate Doers (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
Generally Fire signs tend to be outgoing, inspirational and these people often are an inspiration to others. Sometimes Fire elements can become selfish, in-sensitive risk-takers. A lack of the fire element is indicated by a lack of inspiration, initiative and difficulty in becoming inspired.
Earth Signs are Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn: Persistent Achievers
Earth signs tend to be practical, cautious and have a materialistic approach to life with the need to build solid, ‘real’ material success. They appreciate long range planning and have the determination to succeed. A lack of earth is indicated by a lack of ‘real’ world success.
The Air Signs equal Intellectual Speakers including Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
Air signs tend to be natural communicative, extroverted intellectual and enjoy being exposed to different ideas and knowledge. A lack of air is indicated by a lack of the ability to conceptualize and express an idea.
Water Signs are Intuitive Feelers and include Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces.
Many Water signs are quite emotional – but they don’t show it necessarily. They are caring, compassionate and artistic. They tend to exaggerate feelings out of proportion and live in a fantasy world. A lack of water is indicated as a lack of the capability to understand the feeling side of life and to care for those around them.
WARNING: Now, clearly, everybody has a little bit of all of these element in them. So there’s no one who is just a pure water sign or fire sign. However, what we are looking for is which is the DOMINANT element. And that’s how it works. It’s as much an art as it is a science.
HOW TO GUESS:
To guess someone’s astrological element you’ll have to rate the existence of traits in a person between 1 and 10 points in the following four areas. Here’s how you do it: Give 10 points when a trait is very dominant, give a 1 point when there’s a lack of of this trait. Give 5 points when you are undecided.
Is the person “Passionate Doer”? Please rate between 1 and 10 on how inspirational, passionate and energetic this person is about things that interest that person.
How much of a “Intellectual Talker” is the person? Please rate between 1 and 10 how much communicative and extroverted this person is about new ideas and concepts.
Is the person a “Intuitive Feeler”? Please rate between 1 and 10 how emotional, compassionate and introverted this person is about problems and issues.
Does the person have the traits of a “Persistent Worker”? Please rate between 1 and 10 how practical, consistent and materialistic this person is and things that the person wants to achieve.
While answering these questions, try to think of situations where this person had to display these traits in the past. If you’ve just met the person, go ahead and ask them to tell you a story in which they tell you about their passion, ideas, feelings and achievements.
How to tell: The person’s astrological element is the HIGHEST RATING one.
If you’re unsure about the results – go ahead and ask more questions and re-rate the person in all four areas. You’ll be flabbergasted how many times this method will be successful. Have a magical day.



Excellent summing-up of the four signs!
It’s true that since everyone will have some amount of each sign, the question of the dominant sign would be what they MOST exhibit…. I think you’d have to know someone pretty well to have seen them in different situations and be able to make a judgment.
Good post. I liked your post.
Keep up your good work.
