Fire

The Element of Fire is attached to the Signs Aries, Leo and Sagittarius, and it also rules the First, Fifth and Ninth Houses. As one would expect, those graced by Fire are fiery, indeed. These folks are enthusiastic and larger than life. Just like a fire which is left untended, however, Fire Signs can burn out of control. Ouch! It's best to tend those embers. A Fire Sign is also an indicator of creativity. This Element manifests itself in creative and unique ways, and those in its glow are also wonderfully courageous and lively spirits. Much like a fire is said to have its own spirit and mind-set, the individual influenced by a Fire Sign in their horoscope is self-sufficient, spontaneous and possesses a tremendous zest for life. It also stands to reason that a combustible Fire Signer would be ardent in the game of love. Yes, these are the romantics of the Zodiac, knowing they are the cat's meow and climbing ever higher in the name of love. How can you dismiss this ardor? To their credit, those touched by Fire are often an inspiration to others, certainly for their adherence to solid moral and religious ideals. If there's a flip side to the Element of Fire, it can be that those who bear its will can be overly strident in getting their way. Call it bossy, even, for these folks can come across with a great deal of force. Selfishness and an overdeveloped ego can also be seen as part of a fiery individual's shadow side. Fire Signs are strong, self-assured, creative and fun. When they get too hot to touch, however, it may be best to step away!
