I have read many websites that say I have a perfect balance of 3 of the elements, 33% water, 33% fire, 33% earth.But where does that leave me with air? I guess I am void of that. I have heard when one lacks one of the elements they either ignore those qualities and struggle or overcompensate, which is almost as bad and that, overall, it is hard to find a balance with the qualities most typically associated with that element. So I mm void of air, what can I do? IP: Logged |

Do you have any planets in 3rd/7th/11th houses or angles or nodes in air? I think this can help balance that out. I am very fire and earth heavy with just pluto in water - Scorpio. No planets in air but Descendant and north node in Aquarius and IC in libra. As far as what you can do to help with that I am not sure but would love to know too haha. Do you attract others with what you are void in? IP: Logged |

These 'lack of' or 'void of' interpretations are bunk.You interpret what is there. The elements are found fundamentally in the planets, as they are the core energies. No one is obligated or needs a planet or point in every element. The elements all exist within your planets. ------------------ Soul Stars Astrology by The Declinations Guy Expert birth chart rectification The birth chart is a starting place not a pre-determiner of fate.

What Kannon said as usual makes good sense.You may want to try working with air when planets are transiting your air-houses and especially when making aspects to your natal planets. You also may want to have a look at your progressions and see when planets progress into air. IP: Logged |

I have no earth in my chart, when it comes to the main planets used, but I have a sixth house Sun, and Neptune in the 2nd - they are Earth houses. I also have Saturn square a few planets, so I think that adds an earth element. IP: Logged |
