On the Meaning of Five Elements

In Jin Mu, the five elements are called fire, water and earth. In Jin Mu, the relationship among fire, water and soil is interdependent. Our date of birth determines what kind of life we belong to in the five elements and what we lack. Yin-yang and five elements belong to the important content of Zhouyi numerology, which is of direct significance to divination and fortune telling.

The five elements are interrelated.

The five elements are divided into yin and yang. It means that five soils, Geng Jin and Ren Shui are the five elements of Yang. Wood, original soil, new gold and water are the five elements of yin. The strength of the interaction between yin and yang is different. For example, same-sex interaction can be powerful, that is to say, Yang and five elements can defeat Yang and five elements, and Yin and five elements can defeat Yin and five elements. The opposite sex is relatively light, for example, the five elements of Yang give birth to the five elements of Yin, or the five elements of Yin give birth to the five elements of Yang. The development of science is essentially based on the relationship between things, so the relationship between things is not a bad thing in some cases.

Assuming that the five elements are related, wood fires, fire produces soil, native gold, gold produces water, aquatic wood; In ancient times, firewood was used to make a fire. This is no problem. If the fire is native, it should refer to the ashes left after the fire. Natural gold is a bit like stone, which is scoured from the soil. Golden water probably melted into liquid metal, but I think the ancients probably thought that the source of water was mostly mountains and streams, which came out of cracks like rock walls, so they thought that water was produced by stones. Everyone in Shui Mu knows that no aquatic plants will die, plus aquatic plants.

Hawking, gold can be wood, wood can be soil, soil can be water, and water can be fire. Hawking means that any stone and stone can burn. Jin Kemu is because all the wood and wood are cut with knives and axes. Trees use soil to prevent soil erosion. The ancients should also know the truth of pulling weeds with three or two soils. Tuke water is because before Dayu, the fire was blocked by earth. Needless to say, in ancient times, water was used to put out fires.

The meaning of five elements

When the five elements are perfect, they are scarce and uneven everywhere. What if the fire in the five elements is too strong? The first reaction is to put out fire, so the water factor increases. Then this method is to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause, just like the overall difference between Chinese medicine and western medicine. The appropriate way is to find out the factors that cause the fire from the bottom up and make a fire with wood, so that the existence of wood is reduced.

To sum up, the five elements are mutually restricted and interdependent, which is also in line with the essence of China culture, the variability of everything and its dual nature.
