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.

Aries, who should you marry?
Aries’ compatibility with three star signs naturally soars: Gemini, Leo, and Sagittarius. These matches are more likely to result in long-lasting, happy, and passionate partnerships.
Aries and Gemini
The first star sign that is highly compatible with Aries is Gemini. When Aries and Gemini get together, their bond is based on camaraderie, intellectual chemistry, and a never-ending desire to have fun. When the shared attributes that they like in each other go out of hand… like impatience or stubbornness… it’s critical for an Aries and Gemini couple to keep each other in check.
The good news is that Gemini’s boundless energy complements Aries’ daring attitude perfectly! An Aries-Gemini relationship can be kept on track by remaining active, channeling their energy into good causes, and pacing themselves rather than suffocating at the first sign of trouble.
Aries and Leo
Because Leo and Aries are both fire signs, it’s no surprise that the combination of their fiery passion and high-achieving personalities is a winning combination. These two fearless individuals form an even more fearless partnership, balancing a diverse set of responsibilities and hobbies that feed their insatiable appetite for physical and mental stimulation.
It’s typical to witness Aries-Leo couples supporting each other’s independence in this maelstrom of activity. However, because both star signs crave attention, it’s crucial to work together to celebrate each other’s particular triumphs rather than competing. A Leo-Aries partnership can be one for the ages if they support each other and are patient with one other’s fumbling attempts to convey emotions.
Aries and Sagittarius
Last but not least, Sagittarius and Aries, two birds of a feather. Because of their innate independence, drive to explore, and spunkiness, Aries and Sagittarius can create a rapid bond. These two accept each other’s need for independence, and they have a fascinating connection that stems from both partners’ insatiable need for new information and ideas.
However, a Sag and Aries couple must keep an eye on their tempers and work together to combat their shared inclination to disregard the implications of their actions before rushing into situations. These two Fire signs have a warm rapport and are confident in love when they are at their best.
While an Aries can get along with these signs, their interactions with them may require more effort.
Which zodiac is the most attractive?
The first sign is Pisces. Because of their creativity and love for others, the Pisces sign is the most attractive. While Aquarius looks great in those shoes, the Pisces woman looks even better without them.
