 Beginning with Aries the first sign which is a Fire sign, the next in line Taurus is Earth, then to Gemini which is Air, and finally to Cancer which is Water -- in Western astrology the sequence is always Fire, Earth, Air, & Water in that exact order.  This [[cycle]] continues on twice more and ends with the twelth and final [[astrological sign]], Pisces.  The following list should allow one to visualize this cycle better:
 
* [[1]] - [[Aries]] (''Cardinal'' '''Fire'''): assertively, impulsively, selfishly.
 
* [[2]] - [[Taurus (constellation)|Taurus]] (''Fixed'' '''Earth'''): resourcefully, thoroughly, indulgently.
 
* [[3]] - [[Gemini]] (''Mutable'' '''Air'''): logically, inquisitively, superficially.
 
* [[4]] - [[Cancer (constellation)|Cancer]] (''Cardinal'' '''Water'''): tenaciously, sensitively, clingingly.
 
* [[5]] - [[Leo]] (''Fixed'' '''Fire'''): generously, proudly, theatrically.
 
* [[6]] - [[Virgo]] (''Mutable'' '''Earth'''): practically, efficiently, critically.
 
* [[7]] - [[Libra]] (''Cardinal'' '''Air'''): co-operatively, fairly, lazily.
 
* [[8]] - [[Scorpius|Scorpio]] (''Fixed'' '''Water'''): passionately, sensitively, anxiously.
 
* [[9]] - [[Sagittarius]] (''Mutable'' '''Fire'''): freely, straightforwardly, carelessly.
 
* [[10]] - [[Capricornus|Capricorn]] (''Cardinal'' '''Earth'''): prudently, cautiously, suspiciously.
 
* [[11]] - [[Aquarius]] (''Fixed'' '''Air'''): democratically, unconventionally, detachedly.
 
* [[12]] - [[Pisces]] (''Mutable'' '''Water'''): imaginatively, sensitively, distractedly.
