Which Element Colors Your Child’s Style?
By Vikki Anderson
Your child falls into one of these four groups: Fire, Earth, Air and Water. Depending upon which element your child’s sun sign is in will determine the attributes and opportunities that will be available in your child’s life. Other children of the same element would be your child’s best match for a friend during these tender years. In general, Fire and Air are also very compatible with each other, as is Earth with Water. For educators and teachers, I have been keeping record of many teachers who have taken my advice and placed same element children in groups for school work or at play time. They excel and accomplish things easily and effortlessly because they are of like mind and have the same energy to follow through with a particular task or project. There is also less confusion, stress, arguments or hurt feelings because all are working from their particular element’s strengths to get the job done well.
FIRE SIGNS (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) are leaders, take control of situations and need to feel important. They tend to lose interest in goals and dreams as soon as they are bored with them, so it is important to keep a wide variety of activities, hobbies and toys at their disposal. These children would do best being enrolled in any of the sports or activities in which they show an interest; however, be clear that whichever they sign up for must be completed.
EARTH SIGNS (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) like to do detailed work and never like to be in the spotlight. They can sometimes be very temperamental and stubborn; however, this stems from their lack of self esteem and need for compliments and consistency. Earth signs would do very well being exposed to Rubik’s Cube and other brain expanding activities. They love to figure things out.
AIR SIGNS (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) need lots of books, TV, computers and phones since they are the communication signs and need to be interacting with people all of the time. They also need their own play time and space. They are very intellectual and logical in an out of the box sort of way. Their ideas are original and should be given serious consideration and thought.
WATER SIGNS (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) are the artistic signs which need to express themselves artistically through writing, painting, singing and dancing, etc. They are extremely sensitive and emotional and need structure to be able to pursue their dreams. They are the most compassionate, empathetic and emotional of all the signs and should be handled delicately and lovingly.
