What are the 3 Air Signs in Astrology?
Updated 2024.10.30
There are four types of zodiac signs called elements and your zodiac sign can be either a Fire, Earth, Air or Water element.
The main reason elements are important in Astrology is because they can influence the characteristics of that zodiac sign.
Knowing your zodiac sign’s element can give you a greater ability to interpret the qualities of that sign and understand how these qualities may influence human behavior.
Air Signs are powerful elemental signs because they represent qi, the life force of all things. Their element represents the flowing energy that runs through all things, including me, you and everything we love.
Air Signs are intellectual, communicative and experts in everything in this world that lacks form, but still has substance. Their power of communication makes them social butterflies who excel at witty banter.
Air Signs are aware of the connection to all things. As a result, they can make things flow together easily and get things that are stuck, to move along.
Because they embrace freedom and liberation, Air Signs make great adventurers, artists, entrepreneurs, business owners, researchers, journalists and scientists.
They’ll perform at any profession that celebrates experimentation and innovative problem solving. Air Signs enjoy tinkering and tend to thrive while at work on something.
The three Air Signs are:
Gemini
A mutable Air Sign born between May 21 and June 21, represented by the symbol of twins facing each other.
Libra
A cardinal Air Sign born between September 23 and October 22, represented by the symbol of a balancing scales.
Aquarius
A fixed Air Sign born between January 20 and February 18, represented by the symbol of the water bearer.
