There are a few distinct lenses through which you can have access to zodiacal knowledge. The most obvious method is to learn about planets, aspects, and houses based on your own narcissistic discoveries through the lens of your own birth chart. This is a perfectly valid route. I’ve completed the task. It’s something I’ve done to myself, my crushes, and even my celebrity crushes. I was ten years old and anxious to figure out how Gerard Way, the lead singer of My Chemical Romance, and I could finally make it work. One of the touchstones of my current astrological understanding was that romantic desperation.
But if I could start over, I’d start with the fundamentals: the ingredients. The 12 zodiac signs are split into four elements in Western astrology: air, water, fire, and earth. Each has its own characteristics and associations, which are included in diverse ways by the three signs an element rules.
You’ll have a good knowledge of every sign if you comprehend the ingredients. This will give you access to the full wheel of the zodiac. The planets in each sign become (kind of) easy to imagine from there. Even compatibility, which we’ll discuss later, becomes more straightforward. Earth and water coexist, fire and air coexist, water extinguishes fire, air hovers above the earth… It’s like playing Pokmon or Rock, Paper, Scissors on a cosmic scale.
Of course, it was an air sign who first introduced me to this ingenious strategy. Air signs are both communicative and intellectual. They are experts in the ephemeral, or things that do not have a physical shape in our world, and this is especially true of language and knowledge. Our breath is the air element, and it is the most important and unseen function of our bodies. The Chinese zodiac does not recognize air as a traditional element; instead, it is transformed into qi, the ultimate power that pervades everything. The Air, which represents the East on a Wiccan altar, can be symbolized by anything from a feather to incense; the Air is untouchable and immaterial because it has no tangible material form, even in devotion.
Air signals are especially subject to their own personal projections because air is formless and lacks a physical body. Air signs are unrestricted by space and can fly everywhere, from places to individuals; as a result, they’re prone to total imagination. They prefer theory to practice and can become engrossed in continually thinking or talking about something rather than implementing it.
Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius are the three air signs. For the time being, consider each of them to symbolize a different stage of emotional and spiritual development. Gemini is the first sign on the zodiac calendar, and Aquarius is the last, making it the most mature of the three. So, in Gemini, we have a newborn, a nave variant on air; in Libra, we have a teenager who wants to try everything; and in Aquarius, we have a cantankerous, old soul.
The twins are GEMINI. I believe that the things we dislike the most in ourselves are the qualities that zodiac signs have the worst reputations for, and poor Gemini is a constant victim of that unjust slander. In Paprika, one of my favorite movies, a minor character transforms into a villain, splitting into dual heads and rupturing his seam with cerulean butterflies. “I never knew this side of you!” exclaims the heroine, horrified. “I have many sides,” our doppelganger responds, “and that is what makes me human!”
All of that bullshit about Geminis being two-faced liars is true, but we all do it to some extent. This is code-switching in its purest form. It’s “turning on for work,” having a “phone voice,” and avoiding the topic of your kinky sex life at the dinner table with your Evangelical grandfather. Our identity is fleeting, changing all the time. Gemini simply embraces its natural duality a little more forcefully and openly than the other of the zodiac signs.

Why are air signs the most beneficial?
Air signs are also the most forgiving zodiac signs.
They know the difference between acting out and being plain cruel, and they realize that individuals can say and do things that hurt others when they are upset. Not that they’d do the same thing! Their calm, collected demeanor aids them in navigating the drama, but their gift of perspective means they might be colder than the other signs and appear distant when contrasted to, say, an emotional water sign.
It’s worth noting that elements are usually four signs apart: Gemini is the third sign of the zodiac in terms of air signs, Libra is the sixth, and Aquarius is the ninth. This location is positive and indicates that air signs are more likely to get along with other air signs as friends, lovers, family members, or even coworkers. They’re just a match made in heaven, you know? Air signs and fire signs have a symbiotic relationship. These two are “congenial components,” which simply means that, despite their differences, they are a natural fit for one another.
Each modality has its own air sign, which distinguishes zodiac signs according to whether they appear at the start of the season (cardinal signs), in the midst of the season (fixed signs), or at the conclusion of the season (exalted signs) (mutable signs). A cardinal sign is Libra, a fixed sign is Aquarius, and a mutable sign is Gemini.
Who is the air sign’s leader?
Libra is cardinal, the leader of the air signs; Aquarius is fixed, able to stick to one line of thinking; and Gemini is mutable, as unpredictable as the planet that rules it.

Which zodiac has the ability to read people’s minds?
They prefer to believe that, rather than possessing a psychic gift, they simply made a good guess. It’s not luck when one makes one lucky guess after another; it’s something psychic.
Unfortunately, Libra is too sluggish to devote serious time to refining their psychic abilities, which they believe they lack anyway.
4. The Scorpion (October 23 – November 21)
Scorpios are the zodiac sign that comes closest to being able to read people’s minds out of all the signs.

Your Sun sign, Moon sign, and rising sign, also known as ascending sign, are the three most important places in your birth chart. Your Sun sign is the foundation of your personality and who you are as a person. Your Moon sign indicates your emotional side and who you are when you’re alone.
