Why are the five elements the basis of all fortune telling?

The five elements are the ancient people's abstract division of everything in the world. "Shang Shu Hong Fan" records: "Five elements: water, fire, wood, gold and earth. Water is moist, fire is inflamed, wood is straight, gold is leather, and soil is food. " The five elements are the basis of all fortune-telling. The ancients believed that everything in heaven and earth was within the five elements, and all good and bad luck were the result of the interaction of the five elements. If we master the principle of five elements, the mystery of prophecy will be solved.

"If we only regard Jin Mu as Jin Mu, we would underestimate the IQ of ancient sages. Every concept has its connotation and extension.
