Earth Element Signs: Capricorn Taurus Virgo

All Zodiac Signs are grouped in to four triplicates based on their Ancient Greek elements that sustain a balanced life force. 

The other triplicities are the Water Element Signs: Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, Fire Element Signs: Leo, Sagittarius and Aries, and the Air Element Signs: Aquarius, Libra and Gemini.

Earth is real and natural. Earth is by definition grounded in the physical world. Earth can be touched and felt and will remain unchanged forever.

Earth element signs are the practical members of the Zodiac. Earth is reliable and never flighty. Earth signs remain calm even in the face of enveloping chaos. When the going gets tough, Earth signs are a rock on which others can depend to see things through to the end.

Earth signs are not seen as the most imaginative. Earth finds the solutions most likely work in the long run. They will look at each option in turn and go with the idea that looks most likely to succeed, rather than the most interesting path. 

Earth signs are the ones who keep going until the end after others have given up and turned back. Give them a map and compass and rest assured you will arrive, although not always in first place.

If you are looking for a stable partner for life, someone who can be called on in good times and bad, have a long look at Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo.

Capricorn - Zodiac Sign

Capricorn is symbolized by the Goat

Few people are as practical and ambitious as Capricorn. Yours is the tenth sign, an earthy element, which makes you down to earth and matter-of-fact. Caution is your second name and this is due to Saturn, your ruling planet. You are sometimes shy and lack self confidence and self-esteem. I've never met a Capricorn who was afraid of hard work in order which to achieve what they want in life. You are ambitious and go for your dreams and usually end up successful. You like money but not if it involves risk. You prefer to know exactly where your dollars and cents are going.

You prefer traditional types of savings.Others do not generally see you as too enthusiastic but when people get to know you, you do have a side to your nature which is humorous and affectionate. You like to work quietly and effectively without creating too much bother or attention to yourself. You are emotionally cool so you don't warm to people that easily until you get to know them. Once you get closer you start to feel comfortable with them.

Suspicion is one of the chief traits of Capricorn and when you meet people for the first time it is your way of displaying maturity by not jumping the gun. You like to understand what another person is really about.

You are a big thinker even though you work methodically and practically by taking your time to achieve what you set out to do. You never like airy, fairy concepts and only work on ideas which will vouch safe your financial and material security in the future. You are not a clock watcher when you work because you believe in doing a job right the first time round. You also hate wasting time. You are frugal, resourceful and hard working.

Commitment is natural to you which is why, as I said earlier, you are likely to be successful in anything you attempt.

Not all Capricorns are supported in their lives so you learnt from an early age how to be self sufficient and to make it alone. You know exactly how to achieve your ambitions by yourself. Your primary philosophy is that self sufficiency is strength so you do not like to ask others to carry you.

Basically you are very level-headed and don't expect things to happen overnight. People admire the way you work because you are motivated by your ambitions but also like to perfect your work and do it properly. You can always be relied upon to help others and not cut corners. A traditional life style appeals to you because you like things in their place and need to be in control. Because of this you are not always the most exciting person to be around but you are extremely loyal and will never let anyone down when you give them your word. It does not seem to bother you that others see you as less adventurous.

Your token is the Goat which shows just how capable you are of reaching the heights of any mountain. Your success is likely to occur later in life but when it does, you share what you have with others.

You always demand the same level of integrity from anyone you deal with both in the work place and at home.You are sure to scale the heights of success and due to your keen focus, discipline and concentration your ruling planet Saturn insures a great deal of success, power and happiness.
