A personal journey that began in 1999

Know your nature,
not your future

My experience with the twelve zodiac signs and their four temperaments: how we understand ourselves and those around us, and how we deal with a friend, a spouse, a manager or an employee. Knowledge that brings people closer — not a way to foretell the unseen.

My story with the zodiac

From Saint Petersburg… to understanding human nature

I was a Muslim student in Russia, living among people most of whom believed in horoscopes. I decided to look into the subject with a critical mind: I began asking everyone I knew for their date of birth and sorting them — this one is earth, that one is air…

The nature of the signs

The Four Temperaments

The twelve signs fall into four temperaments, each holding three signs that share one disposition. With someone who shares your temperament, you often feel at ease from the very first meeting.

Fire Signs

A blazing nature that rushes into action. It loves beginnings and challenges, is frank and direct, quick to flare up and quick to forgive.

  • Enthusiasm
  • Initiative
  • Courage
  • Leadership

Earth Signs

A grounded nature that builds slowly. It trusts what it can touch, values stability and security, and keeps its word.

  • Realism
  • Stability
  • Patience
  • Practicality

Air Signs

A light, restless nature that lives on ideas and words. Sociable, it hates being tied down and loves renewal.

  • Thought
  • Communication
  • Flexibility
  • Curiosity

Water Signs

A deep nature that feels before it thinks. Loyal to those it loves, and strongly affected by the people and atmosphere around it.

  • Emotion
  • Intuition
  • Sensitivity
  • Depth

The Psychological Signs

Twelve signs shaped not by the Sun, the Moon or the stars, but by the state of the human soul in its struggle against Satan’s whispers: from “the Defeated Destructive” to “the Victorious Constructive” — pictured as firefighters facing the fires of corruption on earth.
