Take this opportunity to discover your purpose and passion and by using the The Elements Personality Model. Identifying clearly your particular type will help you to make greater progress towards in realising and manifesting your dreams and passions.
Let’s start with looking at each of the 4 elements in turn and see if you can figure out which one you are most like. Very likely you will have a dominant primary element with a secondary element attached. Ideally you need a reasonable balance in each of the other 2 with some of the characteristics of all 4.
Look at the pros and cons of each element and see if you can figure out what you need to develop more in the pros areas and let go of in the cons!
Air
The Pros of the Air Element
You are intelligent, insightful, talkative and curious. You are clever with your mind and words, often described as articulate and are a brilliant communicator. You are an intellectual who is always on the quest for information and generally loves sharing what you find. Your archetype would be the Scientist. You are sharp and quick-witted and draw conclusions quickly and effectively. You have great ideas and a powerful imagination, a visionary.
The Cons of The Air Element
Don’t let your imagination run away with you! Too much air in your personality and not enough water can leave you having a hard time truly connecting emotionally to others, yet you yearn for connection and to feel understood. Often if there is also not enough earth in your personality, you find it hard to give weight to your words and ground your brilliant ideas. Your thinking moves too fast and in sharing of your ideas too much you may become easily exhausted not leaving enough energy to ground them. Sometimes your imagination provides such a wonderful escape for you that you may prefer to live in that fantasy world rather than the more real, material world.
If you feel you are primarily an Air Type, you may experience that The Passion Test will help them to identify what’s most important to you right now in your life and slow down your thinking, allowing you to focus on one thing at a time whilst grounding your ideas.
Fire
The Pros of the Fire element
Perhaps of all the elements this is the one that is most required to connect you with your passions, your burning desires.
You are a natural performer, inspiring, enthusiastic, fun and lively. You generally love taking risks and are initiatory. You have the courage to stand for what you believe and are industrious and energetic, always keen to bring others on-board to support you in your mission and you also are very supportive of them. As a risk taker and an entrepreneur, you stop at nothing to complete your mission and purpose. Your archetype is the Warrior.
The Cons of the Fire Element
With our enough of the earth element to balance fire, they can become too dramatic and swing from one extreme to the other. They often mean well but need to think before they speak. They can be impulsive and pushy out of a desire to help and need to tame their ‘fiery beast’ some of the qualities from water and earth particularly. There’s always a slight danger of burn out.
As a fire personality, the passion test can help you to connect more easily with your emotions and create a more strategic plan for manifesting your passions. This will allow you to step back a little and let go of how things show up in your life with an even better outcome.

Earth
The Pros and Cons of the Earth element

The Cons of The Earth Type
Too much earth can lead you to become too dependent on rules and regulations, not having enough fun and play time. You may find it hard to delegate and as you need things to be perfect, find it hard to delegate and trust others to do as good a job as you at anything, leaving others feeling inadequate around you. You may lack ingenuity, being more inventive and resourceful as a result of needing to get everything right. In the desperate need to need to feel safe you avoid taking any risks in life and could feel stuck.
If you recognise several of the earth characteristics here then The Passion Test could help you to open up your mind a little and be more adventurous and follow your dreams and aspirations.
Whatever your particular personality type, this process will give you a new and refreshing outlook on your life which could be a transformative experience for you.
