Astrology divides the 12 Zodiac signs in four groups according to the elements of nature to describe how they feel and act. The characteristics of air, water, fire and earth are marked in the behavior of the entire horoscope .
Those who belong to the fire have the fame, like their element, of being fiery, they passionately advance towards their goals, they are emotional, they do not reflect on the past and they are always with their mind in the future, as explained by the astrologer Lisa Stardust in a Cosmopolitan article.
Here are Aries, Leo and Sagittarius , three lustful, impulsive and impetuous signs. The fire, when it starts, cannot be contained so easily and devours everything in its path. That’s how they are, they take the initiative and make everything their own.
But despite having similarities between them, also have great differences .
In astrology there is a classification known as modality , which consists of subdividing the signs in cardinal, fixed and mutable . Each fire sign corresponds to a modality and depends on the season of the year in which they fall and gives them other personality traits.
Thus, Despite belonging to the same element, there are behaviors that distinguish them and make them unique. From The Cut site they tell us what they are:
It is a cardinal sign because it falls at the beginning of a season (spring) and represents the beginning of the astrological year . This sign is the most impulsive and does not care about the consequences of its actions . That is why he is known as irresponsible and irascible.
He is competitive, he likes to be the one who leads things, it is easy for him to start projects, but not It is one of those that necessarily ends them. His spontaneous energy can lead to conflicts with others, however, he is not the type to be stubborn.
It is ruled by Mars , the planet of action and war, an energy that makes them warriors and competitive. Aries is not one to think things, he does.
It is the second sign of fire and is fixed mode , which means that its cycle falls in the middle of a season of the year (summer). This characteristic makes it stabilizing, but its element causes it to gravitate between creation and destruction. They like to be bright, ostentatious and magnificent , at the same time they are warm and generous. He does not like sudden changes and, being a fixed sign, does not change his mind so easily.
His ruling planet is the Sun , which represents the ego, that is why he is a character who wishes to be the protagonist of his own life. If you’re not the center of attention, you can turn to drama, but the silver lining is your proactive and leadership instinct.
It is a mutable sign because its season ends a season of the year (autumn), a characteristic that makes it changeable. He has no problem organizing parties or going on an adventure on the other side of the lonely world. He is uncontrollable and just as he has a spirit of generosity, he also has a spirit of detachment . He loves his freedom and is uncomfortable with responsibilities.
Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter , the planet expansion, that is why it is constantly searching for new ideas and experiences. Your need for growth is endless, which can cause you problems if you don’t set limits.
