Mutable sign

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In astrology, the mutable signs (also called common signs or bicorporeal or double-bodied signs) are a subgroup of the zodiac.

Mutable Signs coincide with the times of change in the Seasons...when that which has once been firmly established breaks down to clear a passage for the new. They are associated with change and versatility. Individuals born under the four Mutable Quality Signs are thought to be adaptable, impressionable, sharp, sympathetic, communicative, resourceful and restless, with a gift for seeing both sides of a situation at the same time and an immense desire for knowledge, variety and new ideas. They supposedly adapt very well to new situations, possess much flexibility, seldom have any particular agenda and are perfectly happy to fill in an assigned role. However, they are also said to be inconsistent, changeable, nervous, indecisive and irresponsible, with a tendency to get wrapped up in tiny particulars. There is also a certain duality associated with all the Mutable Quality Signs.

The Mutable signs are:

Gemini: As an Air Sign of the Mutable Quality, Gemini individuals are said to have the best communication skills of all the Signs of the Zodiac. Many astrologers also believe Gemini to be Sign in which the duality associated with the Mutable Quality is most clearly defined.

Virgo: A Mutable Sign of the element of Earth, Virgo is strongly associated with precision, detail, research and the preservation of health.

Sagittarius: A fiery Mutable Quality Sign, Sagittarius is associated with travel and learning.

Pisces: Pisces individuals are said to express their Mutable duality in an emotional manner characteristic of Water Signs, fluctuating from one emotional extreme to the other.
