Qualities: Cardinal

Qualities: CardinalThe Cardinal Signs align with the beginning of each of the four seasons, and with the fourmajor phases in life - Birth, Home, Partnership, and Career.

: The astrological calendar begins with Aries and aligns with Spring, the season of

planting and birth, of starting over after the long winter. Aries is a sign of taking action,initiation and leadership. The Aries emerges headfirst, like the ram - energetic, fearless andimpulsive.

: The warmth of the Summer begins with the sign Cancer , the emotional core of the

zodiac. Cancer is the sign of the mothering spirit, the source of safety, protection andunconditional love.

: The Fall brings cooler temperatures, the harvest and the first days of school.

The lessons of Libra point to balance and partnership - the need to connect with others andto experience community.

: The challenges of Winter call for resourcefulness, discipline and an increased

awareness of the basic structures that we depend on for survival and growth. Capricorn isthe sign of the emerging adult who has a role in society and learns to accept responsibility

for his actions.




Qualities: Fixed




Qualities: Fixed

east




Qualities: FixedOnce the initial charge of starting something new has worn off, the chore ofmaintaining focus and staying on course becomes necessary. The Fixed Signs

represent this middle phase of any activity, project, relationship or journey. We

are motivated to stay with something (or someone) because it is important or of

value to us.

Taurus represents the value of material things, starting with the physical nature

of the human body.

Leo is about the joy of play, and the drive to feel good about yourself though

creativity and performance.

Scorpio represents our primal instinct to survive in the world, as individuals

and as members of the specie.

Aquarius is connected to our desire for knowledge and ultimate truth.

We are all familiar with the downside of each of these forces, when these basicmotivations transition into rigidity, attachment or obsession.




Qualities: Mutable




Qualities: Mutable

east




Qualities: MutableThe Mutable Signs represent the completion phase. Once a lesson is learned thereis a readiness to move on, to incorporate the learning as part of the growth process

and to get on with the next phase whatever that might be. There is a flexibility and

comfort with change associated with these signs, a distinct reaction to the signs that

came before them. Transitional.

In Gemini we learn to name things, we acquire the ability to communicate and to

function as brothers and sisters in the community of family.

Virgo is where we begin to discern between what we like and dislike. We have

learned what makes us feel good. These choices and judgements form the basis for

our daily routines.

Sagittarius is the sign of higher learning. Here we make the connections that form

our greater understanding of the way things are.

Pisces is the twelfth and final sign of the zodiac, the culmination of the journey. This is

the seat of our belief systems. Intuition is directed to sense what has endured andrepeated, and to recognize these dynamics as real and true.
