Fixed
Fixed is the modality of the four signs that hold the middle of each season. It stands for consolidation and endurance. In a chart, the weight of Fixed measures how much of the personality persists once a direction is taken.
persistence, consolidation, will
Overview
The modality that holds: the heart of the season, when it is fully itself.
Fixed does not begin and does not change. It deepens what already exists, and it does not let go — which is both its strength and its cost.
Interpretation
The four fixed signs occupy the middle of each season, when the weather is most fully what it is: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. They consolidate what the cardinal signs began — by possession, by radiance, by depth, by conviction — and they resist being moved.
Abundant Fixed gives will, loyalty and staying power, and a stubbornness that can outlive the reason for it: the position is defended long after it stopped being useful. Scarce Fixed gives flexibility and the ability to change course without drama, and often the difficulty of seeing anything through when the first enthusiasm has passed.
