The 4 elements

The four or five elements of nature — usually water, earth, fire, and air, to which the quintessence or ether is added — were, for many ancient doctrines, the basic constituents of matter and explained the behavior of nature.

FIRE: Passion, energy, strength, clarity, will, initiative and impatience. It is the element that reacts quickly, with enthusiasm, the one that is always seeing possibilities, is impetuous and invades spaces. The fire advances and seduces others advance with it.

EARTH: Firmness, stability, tenacity, search for the concrete, patience, caution and security. It is the element of strength, of resistance to change, inflexible, this element allows to establish and maintain stable relationships, ideas, projects and to set limits.

AIR: Freedom, ideas, change, detachment, perspective, curiosity and need to socialize. It is the element of fluidity, of lightness, it changes direction at any moment. It allows us to change our mind. Dream and dream are possible. It has no clear limits of action and thought.

WATER: Flexibility, adaptability, fluidity, intimacy, need to bond emotionally. It is the element of understanding, that is, of listening, of being receptive, of empathy, it is the element that yields, adapts, goes back and accepts.
