How to calculate your predominant element?
In your horoscope, a particular element predominates if:
- The Sun, Moon, or Ascendant are in the signs of one element, for example, the Sun in Cancer, Moon in Scorpio, and Ascendant in Pisces. Or all three of them in Scorpio, for example.
- More than two personal planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn) are in the signs of one element or all in one sign.
- One of the personal planets is in the signs of its strength: Jupiter in Cancer/Sagittarius, Venus in Libra/Pisces, Mercury in Virgo, Mars in Aries/Capricorn, Saturn in Aquarius/Libra. And at the same time, the luminaries are also in the signs of their strength: Sun in Leo/Aries or Moon in Cancer/Taurus.
- The 4th, 8th, or 12th astrological houses are filled with planets (Water); 1st, 5th, 9th (Fire); 2nd, 6th, 10th (Earth); 3rd, 7th, 11th (Air).
- Being born at night also enhances the elements of Water and Earth; being born during the day enhances Fire and Air.
Fire signs: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
All this fire is very diverse - both in strength and in manifestations. The primary fire represented by Aries is very bright, impulsive, often unable to control itself, ignites quickly but also burns out quickly. The "campfire" Leo already knows its strengths and weaknesses, can both warm and burn if necessary. It is full of inner stability, but as Leo is a fixed sign sometimes it needs external impulse! Sagittarius Plasma fire expands the concept of flame; it undergoes a transformation and begins to blend with other elements, marking a phase of dissolution.
People of Fire element are usually bright, charismatic, and definitely visible. They tend to speak loudly, love and know how to make an impression, create communities, and even cults!, and charm their followers. Fire people are very charismatic leaders - generous, very sensitive to justice or what they understand as it.
Fire is responsible for fashion, luxury, festivals, and mass entertainment spectacles. Without it, no form of creativity, especially individual creativity, can thrive! It provides inspiration and energy for the realization of large-scale projects and vivid events.
When Fire is strong in a chart, the cardiovascular system often suffers; there are frequent problems with blood, strokes/heart attacks, acute infections, and high temperatures.

Air signs: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius
Air is almost always immersed in some form of information: whether for work, for creativity, or just for themselvesl. It captures, adapts, appropriates, and dispenses information at maximum speed.
Above all, Air represents communication. Thus, in our era of ubiquitous online presence, Air people feel more comfortable than the others. They are deeply intrigued by everything new: technologies, discoveries, languages, any systems that can be mentally mastered and immediately yield practical results.
At first glance they are similar to Fire people and could be mistaken for them - active, energetic, creating vibes around themselves. But on closer look, they are not as insistent, not as active—if you don't want to interact, no problem! Air element is often considered superficial, but its main attribute—rapid exchange—doesn’t necessitate depth. So Air people love to meet, communicate, and just as quickly part ways—to be a constant partner to Air, you must be interesting, always bringing something new, and capable of surprising it. Not everyone is up to this challenge!
A predominance of Air in a chart can lead to respiratory issues (frequent colds, bronchitis, asthma, allergies, pneumonia, difficulty breathing under stress). There are often minor fractures in the hands, especially the fingers.
