A Guide to the Zodiac
Understanding the signs written in the stars
For thousands of years, people have looked to the sky and wondered: what is my zodiac sign, and what does it say about me? The zodiac has long been a symbolic calendar – a way of mapping personality, fate and the subtle rhythms of time itself. But how do you know your zodiac sign and what do their symbols really represent?
What are the Zodiac Signs?
There are 12 zodiac signs, each linked to a constellation and a stretch of dates during the calendar year. These signs belong to four core zodiac elements:
Element — Zodiac Sign
Fire — Aries, Leo and Sagittarius
Water — Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces
Earth — Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn
Air — Gemini, Libra and Aquarius
The elements add another layer of meaning to astrology. Fire signs are bold and energetic, whilst water signs are intuitive and emotional. Earth signs are grounded and practical, whereas air signs are intellectual and communicative.
