Signs in the element of Fire: Aries, Leo y
Sagittarius.
Fire gives individuals with the sun, moon or ascendant
under the signs of Aries, Leo and Sagittarius, light and warmth but also
volatility. They need to express their needs of adventure using their intuition
and impulse. They mostly prefer to take the initiative in life and expect to be
surprised. They have confidence in themselves and have dynamic personalities. Fire
signs are naturally competitive where they need action and freedom of movement,
have spark and inspire people at their side and are contagious with enthusiasm,
passion and positive attitude.
To please them on Valentine’s Day it is recommended that you create a cozy
atmosphere that inspires them and makes them feel they are in a new and
different place, that is, create an adventure using creativity. Use warm colors
that represent fire. Metal accessories in gold may help to give it a special
decoration achieving their attention. Also, it is very important to provide
room to move.
To delight the palate of the fire signs it is important to prepare food seasoned
with aromatic spices such as saffron, mint, ginger, citrus, garlic, and etc. Meals
that are an aphrodisiac menu with different flavors for those who know how to add
condiments and even a little spicy
While food is closely linked to culture and childhood, I have taken the liberty of
making a suggestion for the Menu
that might please
people with the sun, moon and /
or rising signs under fire element
Entre: Salad with lettuce, oranges
and walnuts dressed with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, grain mustard, honey and
a touch of lemon.
Main Dish: Seafood Paella or Spanish Chicken Rice colored with
saffron, garnished with thin strips of red pepper and peas.
Dessert: A lemon tart or a chocolate covered cherries with ice
cream or simply grilled or baked pineapple sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon.
Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn.
For Earth signs the experiences of the spirit are in
physical contact through their senses, texture, aromas and flavours… allowing
them to enjoy life. Its function is to carry the spirit into manifestation.
They are practical and approach life with caution and planning.
Generally, they do not like surprises and prefer a familiar place where they
feel safe and well cared for. They have sophisticated tastes and they
appreciate organised and decorated rooms with minimal decoration. All colors of
nature are good but the secret is to use small amounts on a neutral base color
to maintain the elegance of the space. For example, the classic tablecloths of good
quality are their favorite , wooden items , plants and wildflowers are well
suited to brighten the room , and , of course , a fine china with spotlessly
clean glasses and bright cutlery can not missed according to all the rules of
etiquette to set the table .
To stimulate their palate it is recommended that meals be prepared in the oven
or casseroles that facilitate the digestion process, legumes and tubers that
grow underground are highly recommended: such as potato, pumpkin, radish, carrot,
asparagus, onions, turnips, garlic, beets; as well as, all fresh fruits that
grow in bushes close to the ground.

signs under earth
element
Entrée: Cream of pumpkin decorated
with toast or croutons
Main course: Beef tenderloin baked in
red wine sauce or lamb in white wine, served with delicious mashed potatoes and
green beans sautéed with some nuts.
Dessert: all fresh fruit but they can
not resist a Catalan cream (custard) tart with strawberries or currants.
Air Signs: Gemini,
Libra and Aquarius.
The Air represents the beginning of the relationship. The air gives people born
under these signs logic and objectivity. Before making a commitment with
someone they first disconnect to think and analyse and then close in… There is
a tendency to intellectualize feelings.
The air element is related to duality and consciousness. They are curious and
seek experiences to share their ideas and somehow know what others think. They
are excellent communicators and are social, so you should create an atmosphere
that allows for interesting conversation. Persons born under air signs love to
keep up with current events and late-breaking information, so I recommend you
prepare well with a current topic.
To achieve a harmonious environment and keeping them entertained it is
advisable to use a contrasting tablecloth and dishes, decorate the table with
white and red roses placed in a metal vase, which promotes communication. Use
unusual utensils that appeal to them, such as: an unusual design for a wine
stopper, an interesting salt and pepper shaker set, peculiar tongs and
presenting food on wooden boards or trays that are so fashionable. Anyway, to
use our imagination to enjoy an evening that states the curiosity of our loved one.
Usually they are people, who are restless… they should be offered not only
physical space with movement opportunities, but also emotional and
psychological space. When planning the menu for the romantic dinner we should
consider offering nibbles (snacks) and include activities where they can
somehow be involved in the preparation thereof, such as are barbecues and
fondues or those meals where they can help to serve, choose and share, such as
the “tapas” or an assortment of cold cuts with different types of cheese (antipasto).
While food is closely linked to culture and childhood, I have taken the liberty of making a Menu suggestion that might please people with the sun, moon and / or rising signs
under earth element
Entrée: Fingers of baked Mozzarella,
served on a table with several sauces to choose from. For example, a fresh
tomato sauce, or garlic chives or another sour sauce.
Main
course: A grilled chicken or beef
served with guacamole and a couple of salads. For example, a mixed or garden salad
and other salads like coleslaw.
Dessert: Crepes or pancakes cut into different shapes. Serve
with an assortment of fresh fruit, ice cream and melted chocolate. If you can
buy one of those electric crepe makers that allow cooking pancakes on the table
during the evening, it will be remembered by them forever. Another alternative
that also fascinates them is a tasty cheesecake served with ice cream.
Signs in water element: Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. If we
know the sign of the MOON our loved one, it will be easier to create the space
and dinner to feed emotions and feelings.
Water is the element of the merger with respect to relationships. Its function
is to dissolve the barriers between people who love each other. Water dissolves
and mixes with almost all the materials so for this reason they are in tune
with the moods of the people who love them and those around them.
For their sensitive nature they also feel the need to develop defenses and may
be difficult to really know but eventually you can achieve their trust. Its
function is to protect, nurture and grow through ties and doing activities that
gives meaning to their lives. For this reason, avoid superficiality, however
they can disconnect from reality and be subjective, they are sometimes difficult
to forgive and forget.
Being emotional and sentimental, I recommend creating a romantic and fantasy
environment to achieve the emotional connection between the couple in love over
dinner. For example: have dinner ready, play soft music - ballads / Jazz, light
candles with relaxing aromatherapy.
Although blue is the sign that represents the water element, this color is not
recommended for decorating the table for dinner because this color reduces
appetite. For this reason, it is better to use other ocean-related colors and
some mystery to get their attention and make them feel special. For example , a
white tablecloth with embroidery or ruffles as used in the French romantic
decor , ornaments or trays for serving food in the form of fish.
To please their palate it is advisable to research their favorite food as a child, to transport their happy times with their family.
Definitely a dinner prepared with love is the ideal. Also, food that is not
fried or oily. If you can not get information about their preferences, it is recommended
to prepare a meal with proteins for the abundance of iron they need, such as
lean meat or chicken, fish, shellfish, eggs, cheese and yogurt.
While food is closely linked to culture and childhood, I have taken the liberty of making a Menu suggestion that might please people with the sun, moon and / or rising signs
under earth element
Entrée: a ceviche (South American
seafood dish) or natural oysters with lemon.
Main course: Spaghetti marinara or
sautéed prawns and mussels with some artisanal Italian pasta, plus a rocket
salad with pears, walnuts and Roquefort cheese
Dessert: A Peach trifle or caramel pecan pie.
And, if they prefer fruits, they cannot resist a baked
apple with ice cream.
Happy Valentine's Day !
