Rasis & Five Element
According to Hindu philosophy, this world is made up of 5 elements – fire, water, air, earth and ether. Water is a substance with a flexible state. Air is a substance with a varying state. Earth is a substance with a constant and solid state. Fire is a substance that transforms the state of things. Ether is something that is present everywhere.
For example, suppose one has a good memory and remembers something he learnt 10 years back. It involves a skill of earthy nature. Suppose a poet’s imagination creates a nice poem that appeals to one’s aesthetic sense. This involves watery skills. Suppose one is in a bad mood and his mind is wandering aimlessly. This shows airy state of the mind. These 5 elements are behind every material substance, every action, every thought, every emotion and every happening in this universe.
.
(1) Aries, Leo and Saggitarius are called agni rasis or fiery rasis.(1) Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn are called bhoo rasis or earthy rasis.(1) Gemini, Libra and Aquarius are called Vaayu rasis or airy rasis.(1) Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces are called Jala rasis or watery rasis.
(1) The 5th element of aakaasa or ether is present in every rasi.
How they influence:
E.g. The 5th house in one’s chart shows one’s emotional nature. The 5th house in a fiery sign may show a normally angry, aggressive or determined person. The 5th house in an earthy sign may show a balanced, logical and stable person. The 5th house in an airy sign may show someone with unstable and wandering emotions.
