In this episode, we dive into the Fire element of astrology — the spark, passion, and bold energy of Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. We break down what Fire represents, how it differs from Air, Earth, and Water, and how each Fire sign shows up in love, life, creativity, and conflict.

We explore:

• What the Fire element really means

• Aries as the spark, Leo as the flame, Sagittarius as the wildfire

• Strengths, shadows, and real-life examples

• How to recognize or work with Fire energy in your chart

If you’re a Fire sign, love one, or want to understand your own inner flame, this episode brings clarity and cosmic context — in our signature warm, grounded Tide & True style.

🌙 Come sit with us. The tide is rising — and so is the fire.

In Part Two of our Astrology 101 series, we’re taking you deeper into the layers of your birth chart — the parts that explain how you move through the world, how your energy operates, and why your life experiences feel the way they do.

This episode is all about the architecture of your chart — the connections, the patterns, and the placements that shape your personality, your relationships, and your growth.

Inside this episode, we break down:

🌕 Chart Rulers — what they are, how to find yours, and why it sets the tone for your entire life

🌀 Modalities — Cardinal, Fixed, Mutable, and how these rhythms show up in everyday behavior

⭐ Aspects — trines, squares, oppositions, sextiles, and conjunctions explained in the most human, emotional way

🔥 Stelliums — the power of concentrated energy in one sign or house

🌿 The Big Three Angles — MC, IC, and DC: your legacy, your roots, and your partnership mirror

We also share personal examples from our own charts so you can hear how these patterns show up in real life — not just in theory.
