Some of these share general similarities, also based on the element that governs them.

Are you wondering what your element is and how does it affect your personality? nss G-Club has all the answers you are looking for.

 

FIRE SIGNS

Aris, Leo, Sagittarius

Fire signs are energetic and passionate. Very dynamic, strong, active, they have an innate need to express themselves. Brave and impulsive, you easily recognize them in the crowd. They are always the first to take the initiative, without thinking twice. They live life with contagious enthusiasm and have a lot of grit. In this element, ambition reaches very high levels, they are not afraid of fighting to achieve their goals. Independent, creative, determined and self-confident, these signs also have flaws though! In fact, the Fire signs can be impatient, they want everything immediately and they get easily annoyed if things don't go their way. Another flaw is being impetuous. Let us remember that we are talking about the fire, when it heats up it is wonderful but in a second it can turn into a disastrous fire.

 

EARTH SIGNS

Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn

The Earth signs always have their feet firmly planted - in fact - on the ground. They are practical, stable, stubborn and very concrete personalities. Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn give a lot of importance to security, whether it is economic or emotional. They like to take things slow. In short, unlike the signs of fire, before making a decision here we take stock of all the pros and cons with a well-articulated brainstorming. They are hardworking, reliable and persistent workers. Being very patient, pragmatic and hardworking, they are able to apply themselves for long-term goals with an enviable constancy! Their choices are usually based on what makes sense at the moment, they follow their mind, not their heart. For this reason, sometimes they may appear too serious and set, here the passionate and warm emotions must be kept light years away.

 

AIR SIGNS

Gemini, Libra, Aquarius

Air is the element of the mind, which is why these signs always have the most brilliant ideas of all. They are very curious and super intelligent. They have great communication skills, they are able to express their ideas with an extraordinary gab and a unique savoir faire. They are social animals, they love to surround themselves with people and to discuss, exchange opinions and learn new things. By nature they are very talkative and friendly, they really are the perfect friends. Also because one of their most beautiful qualities is loyalty and a feeling of justice, characteristics that help building a long lasting relationship.
A flaw that we can find in these three signs, however, is being fickle. They change ideas, places and feelings, boredom just doesn't exist here. Surely having a sign of this element near you will bring a fantastic burst of fresh air into your life!

 

WATER SIGNS

Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces

Water is the astrological element of emotions, feelings and sensitivity. Water signs are reserved, emotional and have great intuition. Their sensitivity is magical. They feel emotions in a very deep way and with great involvement. Not only their personal emotions, but also those of others and the context in which they find themselves, are in fact very empathetic. A consequence of their excessive sensitivity is that of being great artists. Creativity here knows no limits and limits.
The water signs are also incredibly intuitive, however they lack the sense of reality and therefore often shy away from imaginary worlds. This makes them often unstable and moody personalities, in fact their mood can go from being calm as the sea to raging like a driving rain storm in a matter of seconds.
