I have the Big 3 in water and I wonder what effect this has in itself.

Would imagine other elements would have their own valid input.

I have the notion we are unique in certain ways, if only something simple like perhaps being truer to the element.

I would say "Pureblood" but for the fear of sounding like a baddie from Harry Potter.

How would you describe yourself? Is there a particular "essence" to you.

What 3 words describe you at the core, unaffected by moods or situation, just the you that would be there if the rest of the layers of your character and experiences were peeled away?

Do you feel being all Earth has any significance? Does it make you differentiate slightly from the experiences of those who are the same element but more diluted?

Hmm..

That's how I feel about my triple earth at least. And that can be interpreted many ways. At the very depths of the earth there is fire, magma, a burning heat that only a certain kind of person can access. Us heavy earth people seem so calm and solid, we often go by unnoticed or get passed off as boring. We are not. We are scattered with volcanos waiting to erupt. Some nice, some not so nice. There's alot more going on under the hard surface than meets the eye. Earth is full of history and secrets buried in the layers. Unexplored caves full of diamonds, and a rich calm beauty. Okay now I'm starting to get cheesy, but I feel this is a good description. Another word would be Strength. We support and hold water and contain fire. We can be towers of strength or destroy everything in our paths. Think of earthquakes and volcanos.

The other elements can continually beat us down and do some damage but we still remain and just start all over again, regrow.

I think Mercury and Venus are very important in this too, but then the odds are that you are looking at at least 2 elements and the game becomes something else.

He is like all Virgo and Cancer, but he's not a triple header earth. He has virgo in his Sun, Mercury and Venus(and saturn) and Cancer as his Asc, moon and mars. So he is REALLY a VIRGO in all its glory! He has the Virgo eyes, strange gait, analytical nature, cleanliness, digestive problems, generosity, love of math and numbers, calm strength, etc Need I say more..

So I don't think it has to be the Big 3 to really be pure...it can be in the Big 5

Yep, it does.

Actually it reminded me how my best friend described how she sees me. She is a Leo Sun/Gem Moon and words are her weapon.

She used 'cat watching erupting volcano' comaprison. 'Comfortably walking in the dark depths were no one else goes, because they are afraid of volcanoes and pits.'.

Hey Swerve! Yes, actually I'm a quadruple earth counting Mercury. Sun and Merc in Taurus, Moon in Virgo and Asc in Capricorn.
Wow, triple water! I bet you are a psychic sponge. Yes, there is a dark side to it all too. I've seen alot of heavily influenced water signs playing with their darker sides more than the other elements. Mostly heavy Scorpios which I tend to attract like magnets. But when that element can control those urges and tap into their more positive side they can really reach great heights. From what I've observed the water signs really stuggle with that. Or maybe it's just what I've noticed because I'm coming from a completely different perspective. I've got a good handle on my emotions. But I am not scared away by really emotional people. They usually come to me for support. Like I said, I know alot of people with strong Scorp influences and whoa, can they be emotional basketcases. I love them though.

Hey LeoSH!, Wow! That's a whole lotta Virgo going on! It's interesting that you could see that description in relation to him. You must be one of the lucky ones to be able to get under that hard earth surface.

I loved that description Aen. 'cat watching erupting volcano' comaprison. 'Comfortably walking in the dark depths were no one else goes, because they are afraid of volcanoes and pits.'.
Very true. We are not the scaredy cats of the zodiac.

Pisces Sun & Moon Cancer Asc.

My word would be 'DEEP'

Cool and calm on the outside, a nature that tends to relax and soothe others. Can always sense the energies in the atmosphere. Mysterious and aloof to the uninitiated.

It's nice to hear you talk about your Virgo. Your deep love for him comes brilliantly out of your posts. He's a lucky guy.

I have the feeling you are like a beautiful and ancient waterfall that falls into a silent blue lagoon with hidden depths.

Whereas I feel like a raging river that isn't quite so inviting, and certainly never peaceful.

I think points of reference to nature are so apt here.

He is all air, thoughts and reason, always one to call when your power is out, he will know why if no one else does. He's sort of like a more needy Gemini.
