The Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn:

Grounded Traditional Wisdom

You probably know that there are twelve signs of the zodiac, but did you know that each of the signs belongs to one of four elements: fire, earth, air or water? Understanding what the astrological elements symbolize, and how they link the signs of the zodiac together, is a useful tool in understanding a birth chart as a whole.

Which Zodiac Signs are Earth Signs?

The three earth signs are Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn.

What Does the Earth Element Mean in Astrology?

Astrologically, the earth element represents stability, tenacity, dependability, loyalty, duty, responsibility and sensuality.

In astrology, we consider the earth signs to be generally calm, cautious and grounded personalities. Sensible and practical, they are full of common sense and tend to be risk-averse. Earth signs are the builders of the zodiac – whatever it is that they’re building, be it a career, a relationship or a sense of personal growth, they will take it step by step to an eventual successful conclusion.

The earth element in astrology also has a strong connection to the physical senses, so earth people like to indulge in the finer things of life that they can touch, see, smell or feel. For this reason, these often unassuming zodiac signs are actually the most sensual in the zodiac, making imaginative, thoughtful lovers and very faithful partners.

To understand the astrological elements, it’s sometimes helpful to think of how we experience the element in our daily lives. The earth of course represents the ground beneath out feet and the earth signs do provide a solid foundation of support for others. Earth is heavy to move, though, and earth signs too can be difficult to budge; stubbornness is definitely an earth sign personality trait. The right amount of earth blanketing a seed can nurture and grow that seed into a beautiful bloom, just as earth signs can be creative and tenacious in realizing their dreams. However, too much earth will smother any living thing or trap it in a mudslide – and we can see too how the earth signs sometimes get stuck in a rut and are resistant to change.

What are the Differences Between the Three Earth Signs?

Having learned that Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn are all earth signs, you may be thinking that all three signs are going to be the same. Nothing could be further from the truth! Each zodiac sign is unique; among the sets of elemental signs, one major thing which distinguishes one sign from another is the sign’s mode: cardinal, fixed or mutable.

Each astrological mode operates differently and within each element group of signs, there’s one cardinal, one mutable and one fixed sign. For the earth signs, it’s like this:

Taurus is a fixed earth sign
Virgo is a mutable earth sign
Capricorn is a cardinal earth sign

How does this affect how the signs manifest earth? Let’s have a look.

Taurus, the first earth sign, is a fixed sign. As you can imagine, we’re definitely in mudslide territory here when it comes to getting stuck. It’s no coincidence that Taurus is known as the most stubborn of all zodiac signs. This is the earth element not budging. However, as the earth element of Taurus digs in its heels, it also blesses this sign with incredible determination and staying power. Taurus almost never gives up – not on people either, making this a very loyal earth sign. Taurus can also be very creative in its thinking.

Virgo on the other hand is a mutable earth sign. This is the earth element in its most flexible mode. Virgo people are generally speaking more adaptable than Taurus people, and less resistant to change. To understand this mutable earth sign, think of the healing properties of certain types of mud and clay. They can draw impurities from the skin and so Virgo tries to draw out what it sees as impurities from itself and others – this is where Virgo’s reputation for criticism comes from. Virgo also has a reputation as a master of detail, which comes from the mutable earth element – here Virgo shifts from one grain of sand to the next, analysing each with minute precision. This earth sign seeks perfection in all things and if you’re not perfect, you’ll be nagged until you are. However, Virgo is supremely loyal and tenacious and offers endless support to others.

Capricorn, the final earth sign, is a cardinal earth sign. Here is the earth element seizing control; if the earth can experience earthquakes, Capricorn will be the sign deciding what to do in the aftermath. Capricorn channels the earth element’s energy into ambition, direction and aspiration, making this one of the most determined and focused signs of the zodiac. This cardinal earth sign knows how to control and shape earth, building bricks and steps towards goals with ceaseless perseverance. Because Capricorn harnesses the energy of the moving, shifting earth plane, this sign also carries an air of natural authority, like a mountain emerging from a clash of tectonic plates.

How to Balance Earth Energy in Your Birth Chart

If your Sun sign is not Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn, does that mean you have no earth in your chart? It is possible to have no earth, but it’s unusual. Remember, all of the planets are in your natal chart somewhere, and there’s a good chance that at least one of them is in an earth sign.

Take note of your Sun sign, your Ascendant sign, your Moon sign and your ruling planet’s sign? Make a list of which element each belongs to. Are any of them in earth signs? If so, you’re good. If not, then you may be lacking in earth although your full birth chart will give more of an accurate picture.
If you are short of earth in your natal chart, you’ll probably feel lost, at sea, unable to settle and lacking in direction.

If on the other hand you’ve got a lot of earth – perhaps too much - you may feel bogged down in detail, stuck in a rut or unable to shift your position.

If you think you need more earth in your life, try these easy tips for bringing the stability and security of earth into your life:

· Dig in the garden with your bare hands
· Walk barefoot on the earth
· Build sandcastles or mud pies
· Plant something
· Harvest something
· Choose some stones or pebbles to create a display
· Search for fossils
· Gather some wood
· Craft with wood
· Hug a tree
· Go camping
· Watch insects at ground level

By contrast, if you think you may have a little bit too much earth, try these activities. All of these are designed to invite air into your life, and air is an element which can enliven earth.

· Fly a kite
· Go somewhere windy and enjoy the wind in your face
· Blow bubbles
· Lie on your back and watch the clouds making shapes
· Practice breathing exercises
· Buy or make a windchime or a garden ornament designed to spin in the breeze

The earth element, when it’s working well, provides calmness and stability in our lives. If you can bring this element into proper balance with the other astrological elements, you should feel grounded and at peace.

    Hello there. This is era. I'm answering your video and I'm a little intimidated because I'm on it. So let's just use this one for you and me before I try to check with the audience. But, yeah, when I got your email and read everything, you were speaking right to my heart. Right to my heart. My spirit told me that this was a good thing. And I'm a crab cancer. We don't just trust anybody. It takes a long time for people to get our trust. But you're the real deal. You are the real deal. And that's why I had to write you and let you know that the only reason why I wasn't getting it today was because of my circumstances. I'm looking forward to my new life. I got the world card today, and that means I'm getting ready to step into a new life that I deserve. I must say, you're awesome. I haven't had a chance to see everything you've done, but I've seen enough to know that it's going to go straight to my heart. I know that, like I said, let's not share this with the world yet. This is just for you. But I promise, when I get her, I'll be glad to do that for someone else who may be in my place that is looking for something besides fluff. They're looking for something real. And I do believe that's what you have, my dear. Something real.

    It. Hey, Kelli. It is Brandon Gonzalez, the one that you've been doing all this amazing stuff for. And wow, am I just surprised. Like the whole angel number twelve thing came at the perfect time. It was matter of fact 1212 when I read it. Please keep doing what you're doing. It is helping me in my life in many different ways. Spiritually, I'm of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, otherwise known as Mormonism. Our god is directing me. You're right. You're completely right. I know my worth. I know where I'm supposed to be headed, what I'm supposed to be doing, just by feeling my own heart and my own decisions that he's giving me. He's giving me. How do I explain this? Perfect situations to just choose from. And if I'm choosing the right, then I get many blessings from you guys. Numerologists, moon readings, all of that, and it all comes together and ties into my life perfectly. So I'm so appreciative of what you guys are doing and it is changing me for the better and I'm excited to see what's to come. And that's really all I've got to say. Thank you, Kevin, and I appreciate everything you're doing. Please keep doing it. I love this and I do not plan on stopping.

    Hello. Good evening, everybody. So, yeah, it's been a crazy journey, crazy life, learning experience. Never thought in my wildest dreams that I wouldn't have to, but it I'm choosing to make big changes in my life for the better of myself. I lived a life of not so great, made poor choices. Some of them had no choice. Most apart, I did have choices. But the past three years, I've been dealing with a lot of stress and a lot of depression and anxiety. But throughout time comes I've been learning a lot about myself. A whole lot about myself, thanks to you guys. All the signs thrown at me, all the emails and everything, which at first I kind of found odd. But as of now, everything's on point. You guys are changing. My life in a whole different perspective. And I'm seeing life and this world we're in a whole different perspective, as in within myself. And now I'm in my comfort place. I like views. I like nature. I like stuff like that. This is where I come get my peace and quiet. I look forward to seeing what's coming for me. Thank.

    Hi, Kelli. Just want you to know that your daily email and the guidance you send it really matters. I'm not sure if it's specific to me or if it's for the collective, but what I do know is that when I received a message, it happens to be what I'm going through currently, or I'm experiencing currently. I thank you for your selfless acts. You're consistent, and I always look forward to reading what you have gathered or gotten from the spiritual guides and all of the spiritual team, the Light team. I am going through a tough period right now in my life, and that's seems to be the song through my whole life. But I do have faith and believe that it has to get better or things have to turn around. It just has to. I thank you.

    Good morning, ma'am. I'm glad that I've been on this program for a while and receiving emails on astrology.tv. So far I can say experience has been quite good and I can explain that everything has been going well since the readings that I've been doing. And so far I cannot complain about what has been happening. And I'm grateful that you have been giving me the rightful answers that have been looking for whatever that has been happening through the atmosphere, not cosmic layers. I've been seeing it like you said, it is going to happen. It's been happening for quite a long time. And I'm thankful that I've been reaching you through this email so that I can grasp more information about my charts based on my best chat and stuff. So I'm thankful, and I just want to take this time to say thanks a lot for your time and putting this all together for me to be able to understand how to analyze astrology and my best charts. I'm thankful for everything that we have done. Thank you.

    Hi, Kelli. It's Michael Julian. Born May 30, 1958 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Birth name is Michelle Julie. I am completely mystified and mesmerized by my birth chart. I love it so much I'm staring at it because I wish I knew the immediate future. I wish I knew some of the future. But I love it so much I'm staring at it. I stared at it for a while. Obviously, I cannot predict my future. I don't know how to read a birth chart, but I know you can. But I wish I knew the immediate future. I live in living conditions. Internal housing that is deplorable. I have to fight for my life, my sleep and I hope and wish for better living conditions in the near future. I keep buying lottery tickets, but it doesn't seem to work. But thank you for my birth chart. I really love it. I want to print it and I don't know if it'd be a good thing to put it on my wall because that's a big secret, right? So thank you very much for that birth chart. And I know about the red lines. Somebody told me some years ago. I know what it has to do with. Thank you so much, Kelli. Thank you very much.

I just looked it up my first week of March and not too bad. Always there's always things that you have to fix, but other than that, I really enjoy reading what you write. Always read it every morning, faithfully. And I'm from Armstrong, British Columbia. Canada. That's in the north. Okanagan. And you're living in Australia. I think that's such a neat place to live. But always wanted to go there and see and stay at the crikeys for ten days. Have fun at the zoo. That would be so much fun, wouldn't it? All right, I won't keep you.
