Elements are ways that the soul is energized and motivated toward activating the personality. It makes sense to me that the signs are potential combinations of elements--which sort of coincides with the idea that some signs DO get along with others, even when they're not in natural harmony. (Squares as an aspect work this way: they force our psyche to develop new ways of resolving obstacles.)
Therefore, this is my original idea of "Mixed Elements."
Astrologically speaking, there are four elements:
Fire, Earth, Air, and Water.
Each represents a dynamic expression of energy.
Fire is Action based on Intuition;
Earth is Stability and Grounding;
Air is Intellect and Extension of thoughts (Extrapolation);
Water is Emotional Sensitivity
