Elements and Modalities: Earth + Water
Water nourishes earth. The water sign brings feeling and intuition; the earth sign offers stability and protection. Together you can create a home that is both safe and tender, as long as the earth partner doesn't dismiss emotions as impractical.
A cardinal sign leads and a mutable sign adapts. Plans get made and adjusted with ease; just ensure the mutable partner's input isn't overridden by the cardinal partner's speed.
