What are the 3 Earth Signs in Astrology?
Updated 2024.10.30
The four types of zodiac signs are called ‘elements.’ Your zodiac sign can be one of these for elements:
Fire
Earth
Air
Water
The zodiac’s element goes into determining the qualities of your zodiac sign.
The zodiac calendar starts with a Fire sign, Aries, and ends with a Water sign, Pisces. These elements cycle through the calendar, repeating three times and that’s why the elemental groups are called a triplicity.
Earth Signs are known for loyalty, practicality, stability, and patience. They have a logical nature, are typically very intellectual and prosperous.
Earth Signs tend to be the most dependable and grounded of all the zodiac signs. They can be pragmatic, and also sensual as they are very connected to the material plane.
Because of their dependability, stability and loyalty, Earth Signs can make great friends and partners.
The three Earth Signs are:
Taurus
A fixed Earth Sign born between April 20 and May 20, represented by the symbol of a bull.
Virgo
A mutable Earth Sign born between August 23 and September 22, represented by the symbol of a Virgin or Maiden.
Capricorn
A cardinal Earth Sign born between December 22 and January 19, represented by the symbol of a horned goat.
What are the differences between the three Earth Signs?
Taurus is known for perseverance and a headstrong nature. As the ruler of the second astrological house of possessions and finances, they can be materially focused which guides them towards earthly wealth.
Virgo is known as being a problem solver and having a detail oriented nature. As the ruler of the sixth house of health, wellness and daily routines, they are caring, practical and nurturing.
Capricorns are a cardinal sign starting off the New Year. They are the CEOs of the zodiac and natural born leaders. As the ruler of the tenth house of public image, career and social status, they are ambitious.
All in all, Earth Signs are the most grounded of the four element groups, and they’re often depicted using the color green. Their realms of influence are matters in the Earth plane like stability, health and social status.
