I'm not sure what my element is. According to my zodiac sign, I'm air but I'm still not sure. Is there any way I can find out?

Why limit yourself to one element?

We have the ability to work with all of the elements, so I would suggest that you work with them each and get to know the benefits and drawbacks of them all in your work. No reason to be limited.

You can be in tune with all the elements if you train yourself but you will always have one you have a special connection with. Your zodiac element is not necessarily your element as I have learned recently . Your element is whatever you connect with most m im very in tune with earth I get a special feeling when im in nature . If your still not sure try spending time with each element camping, bonfire, visiting the beach ; going outside on a windy day etc.

Actually, the idea that you have an Element isn't correct. It's something that Hollywood dreamed up in the movie, The Craft, and someone people latched onto it and it won't go away.

We are not one Element, we are composed of all of the Elements. What we truly want to do is learn to work with all of them in balance. It is true that you may find that one or two of the Elements are initially easier to work with. That isn't because they are "your Elements" but because you need to spend more time and effort learning to work with the others that are more difficult for you.

Nor is it true that "your Element" is the Element of the Sign of the Zodiac in which you were born. Anyone who does astrology can tell you that your birth sign is only a portion of what influences your life. Which Houses the other planets fall in also has great influence. Take myself for instance, I was born in Taurus, which is an Earth sign. But I also have planets that fall under Water, Air, and a lot in Fire. So again...I am not one Element only.

Which Elements you work with also depends in part on which forms of magic you practice. The classic Elements in Western magic are Earth, Air, Wind, and Fire. Some also add the Element of Spirit to that. In Chinese astrology and magic the Elements are Metal, Water, Wood, Fire and Earth. That's why it is important to understand what you want to work with and in which system you are working because it changes the perceptions regarding the Elements.
