Elements and Modalities: Air + Fire
Air feeds fire. The air sign brings ideas, perspective and humour; the fire sign brings action and courage. It's an energising combination that keeps both of you curious — just make sure someone handles the practical details.
A fixed sign holds steady while a mutable sign keeps changing course. One offers reliability, the other flexibility. Friction appears when constancy feels like rigidity, or flexibility like unreliability.
