The majority of people know about the division of zodiac signs into elements - fire, water, air and earth but the signs can also be divided based on the crosses in astrology.
According to it they are cardinal, fixed and mutable. This division also determines the peculiarities of each sign to a great extent.
Cardinal signs - Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn
These 4 signs are united by beginnings. Aries marks the beginning of spring, Cancer - of summer, Libra - of fall and Capricorn - of winter. That is why these signs are highly successful when it comes to realizing new projects and ideas.
The cardinal signs are active, ambitious and always motivated by nature. They are extraordinarily prideful, while their thirst for power and dominance is a constant. They are adept at motivating others and are an excellent choice for a leadership position.
If the partners in a relationship belong to the cardinal signs, they can expect a constant struggle for supremacy. They form better relationships with the fixed signs even though their lack of initiative will cause problems. Ideal partners for them are the mutable signs.
Fixed signs - Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius
These are the signs most skilled at using their energy. They can feasibly pursue their goals with persistence, with this sometimes reaching a level of mania. They are incredibly enduring and never give up.
The fixed signs act slowly and methodically, as opposed to the cardinals who are always rushing. For them, loyalty, faithfulness and security are of the highest importance.
These types of people would always defend themselves and their loved ones, without a 2nd thought.
These signs create the strongest bonds between themselves. The mutable signs are problematic because they do not provide the necessary security, while the excessively fast paced life of the cardinals frightens them.
Mutable signs - Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces
The mutable signs are flexible individuals, who have need of changes in order to grow. Characteristic of these zodiac signs is that they tend to change their opinion depending on the general mood around them, which is why they are often accused of being hypocritical.
However the truth is that their point of view can easily be influenced.
The mutable signs are masters of thought and find it easiest to communicate when compared to the other zodiac signs. Their oratorical gift in combination with their fun personality often makes them the center of attention in a given group.
The perfect partners for the mutable signs are the cardinal signs since they are interesting and dynamic enough. They need to avoid the fixed signs, for they won't bring them the necessary changes.
A relationship between 2 mutable signs will often go wayward.
