Elements and Quadruplicity

The Elements and Quadruplicity cards show how a chart's placements fall across the four elements and the three modes, so you can see at a glance which one leads.

Reading the Elements and Quadruplicity cards

The Elements card shows how a chart's placements fall across the four elements, so you can see which one leads. A pie and four rows give Fire, Earth, Air and Water as a share of the placements, largest first, with the glyphs of the planets in each. Point at a slice or a row to pick it out.

The Quadruplicity card reads the same way, with Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable.

Each card has its own gear. Placements holds Outer planets (on by default) and Ascendant (off by default).
