Thank you Max. Yes, I do plan on doing the same for the others. I will try 
to post another later today, if I get a chance.

Your questions are very clear to me, because I have often wondered about 
this too. This is one reason I am posting these thoughts; I am seeking 
clarity. I am not an authority on which traits go with which elements, and 
those listed here are commonly seen in several resources with these 
attributions.

That said, I *think* the strong emotions full of energy belong to Fire 
because of the projective or electrical energy they contain. Anger is often 
depicted with lightning bolts, red rays, etc. Confidence is seen cartoons 
with a puffed-up chest, or like determination, with a certain set to the 
jaw-line. All these examples depict some form of energy expenditure to me, 
and so belong to Fire. Feelings like shyness are felt inwardly - drawn 
there magnetically IMO, and so belong to Water and emotions. At least 
that's how I see it, and hope that Rawn or someone else will correct me if 
I am wrong, and whether I am right or wrong, add some illumination to this 
subject.
