Interaction between 5 Elements

It is important to know the five Elements representation of Ying and Yang in the study of Bazi. The Five Elements represent the Earth’s vibrational energy.

Beginners may have the understanding of the Five Elements and identify them as some form of physical appearance. However, as you further study in Chinese Metaphysics, you will identify and interpret them asa form of vibrational energies.

The 5 Elements are Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water

The interaction among the elements can be viewed in terms of three cycle.

  1. Productive cycle denotes the principle whereby each of the elements produces or enhances to another specific element
  2. Weakening cycle refers to the manner in which the elements drain and deplete one another.
  3. Controlling cycle refers to the principles by which each of the element constrains or restricts another elements.

Great Conjunction of Two Planets

Universal transformation constantly affects our lives from the moment we are born until we leave the earthly existence behind. For growth to happen, we have to change.

Occasionally, change lead to extraordinary joy, but more often than not they provoke feelings of discomfort, fear, or pain. Though many changes are unavoidable, we should not believe that we are subject to the whims of an unpredictable universe. It is our response to those circumstances that will dictate the nature of our experiences. When we no longer resist change and instead regard it as an opportunity to grow, we find that we are far from helpless facing it.

This December 20-21 December is a Great Transition Day where Conjunction of Planet Saturn(Earth Element)and Jupiter(Wood Element) coming close in the night sky since 1623. It is also know as Separating Day before Winter Solstice. In Western Astrology, it is also the Start of Period 9. While in Fengshui 20 December is where full energies of period 9 start.

Rabbit (0500-0700)

Dragon (0700-0900)

Goat (1300-1500)

Dog (1900-2100)

Even thought holiday season is coming we should instead of easing down, we should buckle up and get to work and get practical setting our goals, release, let go, and bring to a close to anything in our life that we have outgrown. Whatever we are doing on 20th or 21st is very important, it denotes as planting the seed for the next 20 years towards your what you want to achieve. You can clean up your finances and relationships.

The Influence element is the element that controls your Day Master. For example, Wood control an Earth Day Master, so Wood is your Influence element.

The Influence Structure group of people are usually very rules-abiding people. The are amiable and eager to please, and consistency pleasant and inoffensive. They strive best in calm and stable situation and constantly keep with minimise conflict with others and make sure that everyone is getting along well. Therefore they can be mediator between people in conflict.

A positive supporter usually are whose caring and guarding feeling of others and are unpretentious and low-key. The strive to work peaceably with other in order to get the job done, and are not interested in being competitive. They can be quite extreme, they can either be the ones to define the rules (the leader) or the ones who follow strictly with the rules (the follower). The less positive side, however will tend to lack initiative and drive and will wait around to for instructions before they start on anything. as such they are good follower and will go through with plans, but dislike last minutes changes. The dislike being position as leader because this requires making decision and making decision agitates them when they know that it might offend others which is conflict of how they thrive.

Output Structure – The Creators

The element that your Day Master produce is your Output element. If you are a Water Day Master, your Output element is Wood.

They are always the ones coming up with the plans and structures that leads to great ideas. The Output element makes one creative and talented, together with their funny and witty with a great sense of presence, they are always the star of the show telling the story and being the centre of the attention.

People with healthy Output structure usually gifted at verbal expression and articulation, and are good in expressive with their gestures and their mannerisms. They can also be excellent in presenting their thought through writings or drawings.

While an unhealthy Output structure person will exaggerate too much and somewhat of a drama queen or king. They will be either over creative, generating tons of ideas or work on things that only they have interested with. or focusing too much on a particular work and delaying the whole process. Simply to say they can be too keen to advance their own cause at the expense of others.

Eclipse, Good or Bad?

In most tradition of metaphysics (western or eastern) , solar eclipses are not a good omen. A Solar eclipse is regarded as being worse than a lunar eclipse – this is because Yang energy is required by all living beings and when a solar eclipse occurs, Yang energy to Earth is momentarily interrupted. It also falls in-line with astrological findings that the Moon doesn’t actually emit its own light, but merely reflects the light of the Sun.

There are reasons of course as per Chinese Astrology, it is strongly advisable to avoid going outdoors during a Solar Eclipse or to observe the phenomenon at all. Being outdoors during a Solar Eclipse is a one-way ticket to bad luck within 3 months. The ancient Chinese Astrologers specifically advised against any direct look at the eclipse. While modern science tells us why this is a bad idea to look at the Sun as it will exposure our eyes to the Sun’s rays during an eclipse can result in visual impairment and blindness. That does sound a bit like bad luck.

However, this June’s eclipse is not the worst (as compared to the one coming this month in December). Different countries will have different timings and different animal signs may be immune and or be affected if exposed.

The eclipse starts at one location and ends at another. The times below are actual times (in UTC) when the eclipse occurs.

14 Dec 2020 TOTAL Eclipse. This is happening on the celestial axis of 寅-申 (Tiger-Monkey Signs). Therefore, Animal sign of Tiger and Monkey will be more prone to accident. Please try to stay at home! try to be indoors before 9.20pm. 😬 Energy will be disrupted during this period of time.

Resource Structure – The Thinker

The name Thinker make you feel that the person is constantly thinking and have no action, however that may not be the actual case. Thinker are know to be Meticulous, Analytical and Reliable.

The element that produces your Day Master is known as the Resource element. If your Day Master is Fire, Wood is your Resource element. They are analytical and deep with problem-solving abilities.

Resource Structure people love information, the sight of data, facts and figures thrill them. They always have the fact and figures ready at their fingertips, If they don’t they will make sure that the find it. They are the ones who always have the how question and they are always determined to get to the heart of the matter. They are the best people to look for who can collect and analyse the data and information that every project, task and organisation needs. Therefore they can always be counted upon to research everything throughly before they embark on anything,

A positive and balance Thinker will be very structured and orderly and will know how to derive a conclusion and make decisions from the data they have analysed. A negative or unbalanced Thinker on the other hand will be pedantic and slow, with tendency to be dull and always feel that the data is insufficient to assist them in their decision-making and there is a need to search for more information. Hence, they will drag things out in the hope of being able to get more information, and there is always a tendency for them to over-think and derive nothing in the end.

Will CLASH affect me?

Generally, people who are into zodiac signs, looking at what is ahead of them in the coming years will find themselves worrying about clash years and etc.

The elements in your Bazi chart may have clashes, combinations, harms or punishment relationships between the animal signs every year and this definitely can bring some level of discomforts, uncertainties and changes. This what you cannot avoid but many of us choose to escape from it because of the negativeness it brings.

What if you can know what is coming and can prepare for it? Knowing what is coming will surely help us have a plan ahead to achieve and experience a better outcome. You may encounter at times where problems are being clashed out and requires you to work on it, to make changes and improvements to it. I can say that many of us always talk about but seldom dare to achieve or take the first set to face the challenges.

In Chinese Metaphysics, CLASH equal to ABRUPT CHANGE, while COMBINATIONS is also a CHANGE but a PLEASANT CHANGE and different people react to it differently. If you are a reactive person, a clash will happen, but if you are a proactive person. the clash will intern became a change in you where you can initiate and ride them through.

There is a cycle that can help you manage it.

Let me put simply put it is a easier explanation:

  1. Aware – You must first be able to recognise that there are real problems.
  2. Acknowledge – To be courageous to own the problems.
  3. Embrace – Come up with various solutions
  4. Resolve – To solve the problem with solution you find.

Remember, CHANGE is not confine to external. Change can be internal too. We have to accept by first changing our perception and removing our inner negative emotions on problems and accepting people we encounter everyday. The change will first and foremost let us contain the problem itself and not allow it to get any worse, while allowing us to explore option to find a solution to resolve the problem.

What do you think the coming 辛丑 year 2021 will bring you? Especially for those who have the animal sign of GOAT and RAT in their chart will have a rely interesting year. Plot Your Bazi Chart Here
