Can astrology help to improve your love life? Of course! It can provide a valuable insight into your emotional make-up - and it can reveal the secret needs of your loved one. Here, we discover which of the four traditional "elements" you belong to. First, find your own. Next, find the element of your partner - or the person you would like to be your partner. Then, just use a little imagination. Think of yourself as a flame (if you're fire) a tree (if you're earth) a pool (if you're water) or (if you're air) as a free flowing wind. Then do the same with the person you're trying to match yourself to. Consider whether fire goes better with air or water? If you happen to be a tree, are you going to be happier near a pool or a flame? By exploring this simple, traditional idea, you can cut out all the complication that surrounds a relationship and gain insight into the basic chemistry behind it. Please though, be aware that any element can 'work' with any other, provided conditions are right. It's just that some elements have an instant affinity while others need to go through a delicate process of adjustment. Ultimately, this means that in love, there's hope for us all, no matter who we are with. You just have to find some way to stay in your element whilst allowing your partner to thrive in theirs.

Did you know that a difference of a few minutes in time of birth - or a few miles in place of birth can have a big impact on the kind of person you turn out to be. Once you have had your chart cast, you can then go on to look at where the planets are right now - and where they will be in the future.
