The element of Earth is the sole purpose of all key elements since it accurately represents a factual basis for each of them, for our independent existence and something we all naturally want to satisfactorily accomplish – materialization of our passionate desires. This is a somewhat complicated component because it is stiff and unmovable, especially when a person has many planets in it, but not enough of them in the component of Air to balance it out.
This is the element of our visible planet and typically obtained its name by it too. We should strategically place this in conscious mind when we properly interpret anyone’s chart, for the lacking of Earth, might sufficiently indicate vast problems a person naturally has finding grounding or intimately connecting to the soil they were born to.
Earth Signs
Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn are the Signs ruled by the EARTH element. It is instantly apparent these remains all practical signs that value material things, work hard, and know how to make a plan and place it to action. All three of them have the ability to be specific and concrete, reasonably expecting everyone else to share in common their practical view of the modern world and their reasonable approach.
Earth accurately represents practical matter itself, our mortal body, and with it our modern finances, the nutritious food we typically eat, and our ordinary routine. Strongly set in their possible ways, specific individuals with this key element accented have a tendency to give in to an unchangeable routine for years, sometimes too scared to get out of it. In a challenging mode, they will stick to social habits that don’t make them happy just since they are sufficiently convinced they have to or stay at a job because of financial security, while completely neglecting their valuable intelligence and unique creativity.
How Do We Balance Earth?
The most massive challenge Earth has to typically face adequately representing the recognition of something as fast, unstable and transparent as Air. Earthlings out of balance need to gently shake off their stiff habits, cause changes to their active life and their routine without regret, and stop questioning every ultimate decision they’ve at present made. Their sense of purpose has to be clear and their contact with emotions deep and unshakeable, and this shifts an exceptional effort for someone like Virgo, accompanying Venus into fall.
To typically get in gentle touch with the element of Air, these individuals should read carefully, have a coffee break, walk aimlessly and socialize as much as possible. They need voicing word rather than a written one, a modern computer, people who alter places and ambitions to instruct them how to move, and many relaxations and stretching to prepare their body for the change. The best exercise for anyone pressured by Earth is precisely dancing, spontaneous and carefree, with modern raucous music and preferably a relaxed partner.
