Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius
Joyce Hopewell & Richard Llewellyn describe in “The Cosmic Egg Timer” to think of fixed energy as the color BLUE. Serene, calm, resting, passive, relaxed, peaceful.
In this book the authors use the modes to describe aspects, chart shaping, planets, and zones rather than talk about the qualities/polarities by themselves but it still paints a picture of what cardinal, fixed, mutable means.
“A person who lives a life in a blue way seeks substance, security, serenity, and stillness, and they would be concerned with the very act of being, to enable them to experience and enjoy life.”
“Blue aspects have a fixed quality, seeking security and stability.”
Some of these descriptions may sound strange for say a passionate Leo or intense Scorpio but I think the authors paint a picture of the “stillness” fixed signs are. Fixed sustains, isn’t one to jump into action. They need to be brought into the action. Fixed is stability.
This book labels fixed as Mrs. Fixed. Possibly Mrs. towards that title of “belonging” and commitment.
“Fixed energy has an established quality. It seeks to keep things pretty much the same, unchanging, firm, and solid. To preserve what is already there is its main purpose.”
This book labels planets with cardinal, fixed, mutable and is meant to be used in the Huber Method which highly focuses on outdated psychology. While these are NOT concrete labels it is again an interesting way to look at the qualities/polarities.
Fixed planets: Venus, Saturn, Uranus.
“Venus wants harmony and contact.”
“Saturn is associated with serenity. Saturn is concerned with structure and form, always seeking to organize, preserve, and maintain things within manageable limits.”
“The drive associated with Uranus is for creative intelligence. Uranus energy is directed towards striving for security - yet often goes about this by turning things upside down, causing change & disruption. One way Uranus seeks security & making things better is by inventing & creating technically based systems which provide greater security.”
In”The Astrology Bible”, Judy Hall. Fixed: consistency, intractable, rigid, resistant, stable, steadfast, loyal, entrenched, predictable, fixation.
“Taurus: perhaps one of the most entrenched of the fixed signs, as the quality reinforces the earth element’s desire for stability at all costs. Although dependable, this personality’s cautious approach to life can be life-negating.”
“Leo: the least flexible of all the fire signs, Leo shows little of the impetuosity of Fire and finds it difficult to adapt to change.”
“Scorpio: this sign has an intensity that masks a deep intractability. The fixed quality imparts stubbornness to the usually acquiescent water element, which can lead this sign into an emotional rut.”
“Aquarius: the fixed sign of air - an element noted for its flexibility - can be extremely inflexible, as befits its planetary co-ruler Saturn. Like Scorpio, this sign can get stuck in fixed behavioral patterns, so reflecting its other ruler Uranus.”
