The theory on semi-sextile signs is that each and every sign has something to learn from the sign immediately ahead on the karmic wheel. Each and every sign also has something to teach the sign immediately before – on the karmic wheel. For example – Taurus has something to learn from Gemini (next sign) and something to teach Aries (previous sign).

This may be why signs adjacent to each other often become close – either as friends or lovers. It might also be the feminine/masculine attraction.

What I find interesting about this.. is that the Astrological circle always progresses in this pattern - Masculine (fire) has something to learn from Feminine (earth). Feminine (earth) has something to learn from Masculine (air). Masculine (air) has something to learn from Feminine (water). Feminine (water) has something to learn from Masculine (fire).

So..

Fire - learns from earth/ teaches water
Earth - learns from air/ teaches fire
Air - learns from water/ teaches earth
Water - learns from fire/ teaches air

I was wondering why it works out this way.. What do you guys think?

Would it be true to say that the qualities the element of Air most needs - are Water-like such as having greater depth and understanding, being more emotional.. And the qualities Water most needs are Fire-like - such as being brave, honest and straight forward.. And what Fire most needs are Earth-like qualities - such as being practical, grounded and more realistic.. Finally, what Earth needs are Air-like qualities - such as being more light hearted and friendly - taking life less seriously.

There is something interesting to that theory, I've seen a few semi-sextile couples throughout my life, that including my Mom and Dad(Scorpio/Libra). There is definitely lessons to be learned, even if through thick or thin, one way or another. I personally find myself constantly attracting the Sun sign Scorpio, either female friends or men who are romantically drawn to me. It feels at times like there is some sort of unknown karma going on that can't be explained...it's as though they want to play 'teacher' towards me, like I am a lost little soul that must be lead in the right direction. Now don't get me wrong I love the beautiful intensity and vibrancy of Scorpio's nature, it is quite a sight, very admirable. But I seek a partner who views me as an equal(another half), not someone who is viewed as being in permenant distress. Oh man did it use to **** me off something fierce when my Scorpio ex would tell me 'I told you so' when something bad would happen to me, and he would never sympathize with me about a situation...it was usually the typical 'you should have known'.

Insightful conclusion and I like the analysis that got you there.

This reminds me of the quincunx, where it's said that Fire serves Water, Earth serves Fire, Air serves Earth, & Water serves Air.
I'm a little uneasy though with the idea that one element serves/teaches another while the other receives/learns. I would like to think that the growth is mutual in those relationships.

That Theory is very interesting indeed..

You must have seen the thread about semi sextiled couples - i didnt had the idea that there were so many - which makes me comfortable.

Im in a semisextile relationship where im the Virgo(Earth) and he´s the Libra (Air).
We felt that our 1st encounter was very magic and had a karmic thing goin on and still now the "learning" and "teaching" themes are always there ( but our relationship has also much to do with healing also).

You say that the Earth has to learn sth with the Air ..i agree with Jane as in a relationship both partners learn from each other and that must be the reality for things to work out, or else, the person who is feeling "teached" will fed up with so much "lessons" and so few equality in the "papers" of the relationship.

But it´s true somehow..cause my Air love so many times tries to "teach" me in certain areas that i must step in on my own risk - there´s a patter there where he feels that he is and must be the teacher but we must step back nad make them see that the growth is mutual and it is reached slowly,by the 2 persons through respect for thir individual selfs
