You walk into a room and there
before you are four human beings.
The first person is a classic Fire element, the second a classic Water element, the third a classic Air element and the fourth a classic Earth element. You pose one question to them all: How are you feeling? The classic Fire element would probably not be still long enough to hear your question, but if they were, they might say something like, “I'm great, but let’s get on with it.” The classic Water element would probably smile at you and then proceed to tell you exactly how they are feeling emotionally right in that moment. The next moment of course could be a completely different experience for them, so it might go on for quite some time. Besides you’ve hit on their favorite topic of conversation. The classic Air element would probably feel put on the spot, look at you rather suspiciously and wonder why in the world you want to know how they are feeling. The classic Earth element would probably look slightly confused and then shrug their shoulders and proceed to tell you about how their body is feeling. “My back is aching a bit and I’m kind of tired, but other than that I’m okay. How about you?”
