Chart

The five elements in the horoscope are not wood, fire, earth, metal, and water, so how should we look at them?

How do you see the five elements in the horoscope?

The five elements in the Bazi are relationships and structures, not five nouns. This article will further bring the concept back to structure, judgment and real-life scenarios.

The five elements are not a list

The five elements in the horoscope are not all five names, but how they interact with each other. What you need to care about is how birth, restraint, release, consumption, and support revolve around the Sun Lord.

How the five elements revolve around the sun

  • ·First look at which line the sun master belongs to.
  • ·Look at the other five elements to see if they generate it, restrain it, help it, or vent it.
  • ·Finally, see if these relationships form a stable structure.

Missing a line does not mean bad

If a certain line is missing, there may not necessarily be a problem. The key is whether this row should have been less in this disk, or whether it has been replaced by other structures.

How to get back to reality

When the Five Elements are read to the end, it does not stop at wood, fire, earth, metal, and water, but returns to the ability, rhythm, environment, and realistic expression.

The relationship between the five elements is not a static balance

Many people will subconsciously want to make up the five elements into an average, but the horoscope is not a color matching chart. What really depends is who is leading, who is taking over, who is transforming, and whether this set of relationships can make reality operable.

The five elements must first look at their functional positions

Wood, fire, earth, metal, and water are just the entrance to the language, not the conclusion. Each row will turn into different gods in front of different sun masters, and will assume different functions in different positions. When judging a certain five element, you must first ask whether it is a resource, output, pressure, similar type, or support system in this disk.

Quantity cannot replace strength

If there are three water in the plate, it does not necessarily mean that water is the most useful; if there is only one fire, it does not necessarily mean that fire is weak. The strength depends on the season, root energy, dryness, combination and whether it is controlled. Quantity is just a first glance and cannot replace judgment.

It depends on the circulation among the five elements

The most feared thing about a disk is not that one of the five elements is lacking, but that the power is not flowing. For example, if there are many seals but not a body, there are food wounds but no wealth, there is wealth but the sun master cannot afford it, all will cause the structure to get stuck. The focus of the Five Elements reading method is to see whether power can go from source to result.

Translate the five elements into the language of life

The five elements finally fall into reality: Wood may correspond to growth, planning, and extension; Fire may correspond to expression, manifestation, and heat; Earth may correspond to carrying, stability, and management; Metal may correspond to boundaries, rules, and cutting; Water may correspond to flow, information, and adaptation. How to use it specifically depends on the day master and structure.

The five elements look at relationships first, not quantity.

The five elements in the horoscope are not statistical tables. The several times wood, fire, earth, metal, and water appear are just the first glimpse of information; what really matters is how they generate, restrain, vent, consume, and support, and how these relationships ultimately affect the Sun Lord. A large number may not be powerful, and a small number may not be useless.

The Five Elements should be viewed together with the seasons

The same thing is fire, but summer and winter have different meanings; the same thing is water, and the functions of winter and summer are also different. Talking about the five elements without the seasons will make the power level. The order of the month gives the five elements a climate background, which is the basis for judging the prosperity and decline and adjusting the climate.

The five elements must be translated into reality

Wood can be growth, planning and stretching, Fire is expression, heat and visibility, Earth is carrying, stabilizing and digesting, Metal is rules, boundaries and execution, Water is flow, information and adaptation. Only after it is translated into a state can the five elements fall into real life.

Articles on the Five Elements should avoid being negative

If you only write labels such as "Wood Zhuren, Fire Zhuli", readers will soon feel empty. A better way to write it is to explain how a certain line flows in this disk, where it is blocked, and what kind of rhythm or choice it will manifest in reality.
