Calculation of Feng Shui numbers by date of birth: determining your element. How feng shui improves life

To determine your element - the symbol of the Feng Shui element, you need to pay attention to the last digit of your year of birth, given that you were born after February 20th. This number will determine your element.
But if you were born between January 1 and February 20, then the figure must be taken from the previous year. Those who celebrate their birthdays in January-February should determine the exact date of the Chinese New Year, because its celebration occurs differently each year.

If the number was determined accurately, then in this table you will find out your element according to Feng Shui:

People striving for, turn to a combination of the five main elements of feng shui. These elements are the five energy phases, through which the life force passes - qi energy.

Five symbols of the universe:

A tree is a symbol of a rapid beginning.

Fire is the peak, the pinnacle of development.

Metal is a symbol of decline.

Earth - stabilization phase.

Water is the fifth phase, representing potential.

All five elements form creative and destructive cycles:
1. The cycle of creation is structured like this: Fire gives birth to Earth, Earth gives birth to Metal, Metal gives birth to Water, Water gives birth to Wood, and Wood gives birth to Fire, and the chain is closed.

2. In the destructive cycle, Metal melts under the influence of Fire, Metal cuts Wood, Wood can lift and loosen the Earth, Earth pollutes Water, and Water extinguishes Fire.

Properties of the Five Elements of Feng Shui

Properties of Feng Shui elements – Wood
A tree is a symbol of new life. This is the beginning of the cycle of the five elements. This element symbolizes what slowly but surely strives towards a goal and achieves it. Also, the Tree is a symbol of intuition, inner knowledge. A person endowed with the energy of a tree is very strong, but his strength is flexible, following the inner voice. Living plants best represent the Tree. Green objects enhance the energy of Wood in the home.
Properties of Feng Shui elements – Fire
Fire has the greatest yang energy of all five elements. Fire always evokes respect and fear.

The energy of Fire is characterized by pressure and the desire for superiority.

In Feng Shui, this energy is regulated with red color or a candle.

Fire lives in fireplaces, needles, images of sunrise and sunset, interior items made of wool, feathers, and leather.

The carriers of Fire energy are children, animals and birds.

Excess Fire turns a person into a self-confident self-lover and leads to nervous exhaustion. Such people strive to do a lot of things, but do not have time. Fire can warm and cheer, but it can also burn and destroy.

It, like Water, must be constantly kept under control.
Properties of Feng Shui Elements – Earth
The earth is the basis of human life.

The energy of the Earth is needed so that man and his environment are in harmony.

For these purposes, clay statues are erected and areas are decorated with granite boulders. The energy of the Earth is in stone, ceramic, and crystal objects.

If the Earth is in excess, a person becomes limited, a victim of his own stubbornness. If this happens, well-being leaves them.
Properties of Feng Shui elements – Metal
Metal is inherent in such forms of the planet as gold, silver, copper and other metals.

Metal stimulates thought processes.

Strengthening the energy of metal is quite simple by placing metal candlesticks, clocks, figurines or other metal objects.

An excess of this element leads to vanity, imprudence, and unscrupulousness in funds.
Properties of Feng Shui elements – Water
possessing magical powers. All other elements come from it.

Water is the element of black color.

It personifies contemplation, human spirituality, and has a cleansing and refreshing effect.

With the help of Water energy, a person becomes more peaceful and flexible. Excess Water makes a person indecisive and very vulnerable, leads to lethargy and despondency.

Water symbolizes wealth.

Harmony of the five elements of feng shui:
In nature, all five elements are balanced. The arrangement of housing without taking into account the laws of spatial harmony has led to an imbalance of elements in our apartments and houses. Each room should have symbols of all elements. The absence of at least one of the five elements leads to an imbalance. A person is deprived of harmony with the world and himself.

"Chinese calendar"

In the table you can find out about the color of the year, what element it belongs to, the animal of the year, and what date the year begins according to the Chinese calendar. Also, this table will be useful for those who want to determine their element in Feng Shui.
Chinese New Year is celebrated continuously between January 20 and February 20. This is due to the fact that the Chinese calendar is based on lunar months.



Compatibility of Feng Shui elements

Fire + Fire
Two Fires arouse in each other strength, optimism and energy, the desire for creativity and unusual solutions. The union here promises to be long and strong, since the parties do not get bored with each other’s company.

Fire + Earth
Here there is stimulation, stimulation of each other's potencies. The creative imagination of Fire combines perfectly with the sensuality and intuition of the Earth; their unity strengthens the relationships of such people for a long time and in all possible manifestations.

Fire + Metal
Fire and Metal are opposing elements, and Fire suppresses – melts and destroys – Metal. Metal is trying to subordinate it to its will and impose its opinion on Fire, which results in an acute conflict. However, the situation can be softened by the sense of humor inherent in both signs. To harmonize relations, a softening mediator is needed - the Earth. The elements of the Earth must be present in the house.

Fire + Water
This relationship is not the best, because Water has the ability to extinguish Fire. However, it is able to bring creative force to the activity and enterprise of Fire, which, in turn, also feeds the forces of Water. But, despite the natural tendency to communicate, people born under the signs of Water and Fire cannot understand each other’s feelings.

To harmonize relationships, they should have something from the element of Wood in their home. It will weaken the negative interaction between Fire and Water.

Fire +Tree
Such a connection is considered good: Wood calms the overly impulsive and momentarily driven Fire, and Fire gives Wood the strength to carry out the most daring projects.

Both are united by a love for everything new, interesting and unexplored.

Earth + Earth
Such a union is considered very good. Two people of the Earth sign are caring towards each other and each tries to be on top in the eyes of their partner. At first glance, restrained feelings are actually deep and passionate.

However, Earth people are very stubborn and this can cause conflicts. But if mutual affection is strong enough, then all these problems will easily fall aside.

Earth + Metal
One of the best combinations. Here partners will find help, respect and support in each other, and will admire each other.

Earth is slow, and Metal is patient. At the same time, the Earth supports the ambitions of Metal, which helps him implement his bold projects.

Metal, in turn, helps the Earth expand its horizons, be bold and expressive.

Earth + Water
It will be difficult for such a couple, since both are overly sensitive and vulnerable. The earth is reliable and stable, but stubborn. The stubbornness of the Earth hurts the more vulnerable Water. In a practical sense, the union of Earth and Water is quite effective.

Water is a creative nature, and Earth is practical, showing common sense in everything. To soften the harsh moments, Metal must be present in their home.

Earth + Tree
Tree and Earth have opposite qualities: Earth is conservative, Tree is progressive and mobile. At the same time, the Tree dries up the Earth.

However, their union can become quite good if they try to support each other and not offend each other. To establish relationships in the home, you need the attributes of the element of Fire.

Metal + Metal
Good relationships between identical signs are determined, first of all, by understanding. In this case, problems are possible, but everything can be solved for the sake of the common cause.

Others may find their relationship cool. This is due to the natural individualism and independence of Metal people. In fact, their relationships are usually deep and long-lasting.

Metal + Water
These two elements help each other to cope in difficult situations, both have deep intuition and the ability to deeply understand and empathize.

Metal teaches Water not to fall under the influence of others, Water helps Metal to “float away” from the past and be less conservative, teaches it to express its feelings.

Metal +Tree
The combination of these signs can lead to conflict. Because both strive to rule and make decisions. At the same time, the sociable Tree will love company, while Metal prefers solitude. This will irritate each other.

But the Tree is more flexible. And, most likely, he will get used to the unsociability of Metal. Metal will suffer from the high demands of Wood.

But if Metal does not argue with his idealistic partner, they will succeed. For such a couple, the main thing is to be able to give in and compromise in time.

Water + Water
A wonderful union where the parties deeply feel each other on an intuitive level, guess the needs and requirements of the partner. Internal kinship strengthens their determination and protects them from negative external influences and influences. The two Waters gain strength and confidence in each other.

Water + Tree
Here the partners help each other a lot. Therefore, such an alliance is favorable for both.

Water nourishes the Tree, gives it the energy of growth and flowering, and the Tree brings Water a sense of stability and clarity of purpose.

Water softens, brings the ability to empathy and compassion, and promotes self-expression. The tree brings strength and stability to Water, strengthens Water, which is prone to frequent mood swings.

Their connection is built on the intuitive, subtle closeness of souls and minds, so over time their union only grows stronger.

Tree + Tree
This is a creative union of two active natures. The tree loves variety, change, different activities. Two Trees strengthen these inclinations in each other - each, in addition to their own hobbies and varied hobbies, also has common interests.

However, they do not get tired of their partners, but on the contrary, they actually blossom. They are tolerant, inclined to give in and help each other.

Do you dream of anything?

If you believe in some higher powers that fulfill wishes and in miracles, then they will definitely come true!

And the Feng Shui wish table will help you with this. How to correctly draw up, make wishes and “launch” a card so that everything comes true?

Feng Shui wish card: how to do it right?

Creating a wish map is a very creative, interesting, exciting and... responsible process. You will see how much your mood will rise during the process of work, and your soul will literally sing with happiness! After all, this will be a picture of your desires, painted by you personally! So where do you begin the process of creating your map?

  • choose a day favorable for creating a map;

For this, the Feng Shui calendar will be a good assistant, in which you will find the relevant information - and the card will make your dreams come true even faster. It is very useful to view the Chinese calendar before any important events, decisions, or plans.

  • preparation of instruments;

Depending on what size you want to make your map, you will need whatman paper or a large sheet of paper. You can use thick paper to hang the card, or you can choose a thinner option to roll the card like a scroll. Even a regular sketchbook, notepad, or notebook will also work. In addition, you will need glue and scissors for working with pictures; felt-tip pens, markers, pencils, pens - for writing down desires.

  • zoning the map and working with desires;

Divide whatman paper into sectors. Together they form a circle, divided into the following zones: health, money, fame, marriage, family, creativity, knowledge, career, travel.

From this point of view, it is better to choose whatman paper or a sheet of paper: you will not draw this circle in an album. But if you have chosen the album format, simply allocate a separate sheet for each sector. Next begins a very important stage - the formulation of desires.

  • activation of the card;

When your map is ready, you need to “launch” it. To do this, in the very center of it, glue a picture depicting, for example, your favorite chocolate. You can buy yourself your favorite treat at any time, thereby “putting” the card into action. Review your map regularly and admire it.

  • card storage.

A wish map is a secret thing. She must be constantly visible. But only for you. The ideal place is the inside of a closet door, which is visible to you but not accessible to others.

How to make a wish according to Feng Shui and zone a card correctly

Formulation of desires is one of the most important stages in creating a map. At this stage, you should think carefully before writing down your wish on the card. Take your time as you work through each zone: you can make the map as long as you need it. In this case, what is important is not the speed with which you do it, but the degree of concentration and elaboration of each desire. You remember that wishes come true, right? This means that it is very important to guess them correctly! To begin with, it’s worth giving a couple of rules common to all desires and sectors:

  • you always write your desires in the present, accomplished tense, as if you already have what you want. That is, by writing down a wish, you are stating the fact that it has already come true for you;
  • use creativity and imagination: design your card in a special way, you can draw in it, write in different colors - it depends only on your desire;
  • you can create a kind of wish calendar by writing down the dates for the fulfillment of one or another dream.

  • health sector;

This is the most important area on the map. It is located exactly in the center. Paste your photo into the center of the card. Choose the one where you are happy. If you want to become slimmer, cut out the figure of a fashion model from a magazine, stick it on a card, and glue your head.

  • sector of marriage and love;

It's in the top right corner. Here you enter all your dreams related to love, romantic and marital relationships. If you have a significant other, paste a photo of you together and sign it: “Together forever,” etc. If you want to enter into a legal relationship, choose a photo of the bride and groom, and stick yours instead of their heads.

If you don’t have a soulmate, but you dream of meeting your loved one, describe him or her in as much detail as possible: age, appearance, character, occupation, how he (she) treats you. But if there is a person whom you want to see next to you, but he does not have reciprocal feelings for you, it is better not to “touch” him, because you can harm both yourself and this person.

  • home and family sector;

This is the middle sector on the left side. Here you enter all your dreams of a friendly family and a cozy home. This includes not only marital relationships, but also children, parents and other relatives. Think about what you would like your relationship to be like and write it down in the sector, not forgetting the rule of writing in the present tense.

  • sector of creativity, hobbies and children;

This is the middle right sector. If you want a child, this is where you should write down your desire and post photos of babies and pregnant women. If you want creative development, then write down your desire and support it with photographs that correspond to your hobby: drawing, singing, music, etc. Write that you always have inspiration for new creations.

Zones of career, money, fame, travel

  • money sector;

It is located in the upper left corner of the map. Here you write all your desires regarding material wealth. You can paste pictures of currency here, or you can use Feng Shui talismans: wallets tightly stuffed with money, a Chinese coin, Hotei. This zone loves specifics. Therefore, write clearly, for example, what salary you want to receive or what car (model, color) you want to buy, etc. Again, write that you already have this salary or car. You can cut out a photo of the car you dream of and stick your figure or just your head near the steering wheel, as if you were driving this car.

  • glory sector;

This is the central upper sector. All your ambitions, ambitious plans, thirst for recognition - the fame sector is responsible for all this. Do you love singing and want to become a famous singer? Or have you been involved in sports since childhood and dream of becoming a gold medalist at the Olympics? Write that you have already achieved this! you can find relevant photographs and glue your head: for example, to the figure of a championship winner at an award ceremony or to a famous singer performing on stage. Don't be afraid to dream - everything will work out!

  • knowledge sector;

This is the bottom left corner. If entrance or final exams are coming up, write here that you passed them with excellent marks, entered the desired department at the university you planned to attend (specify it), received a “red” diploma or a “gold” medal. Maybe it’s important for you to gain some specific knowledge in a certain area, take training or courses, but it’s still not possible - write this down too.

  • work and career sector;

Do you want to get your dream job but still can't? Or have you been working in the same position for several years and want to grow your career? Write that you already occupy the desired position. Or that you have already been hired by the company you want to join. you can support your desires with pasted photographs. These could be famous people who have achieved heights in your field. Or the logo of the company you want to work for. You can reinforce the zone with symbols from the money sector: Hotei or banknotes will be very useful.

  • travel and patrons sector;

The lower left corner is the zone that is responsible for travel and activates patrons. Do you want to visit Paris? Feel free to paste a photo of the Eiffel Tower and yourself next to it. You can make a schedule or calendar for when you will visit a particular place. Do you want to attract helpers? You can paste pictures with deities, Guardian Angels, saints, depending on your religion.

It is important to know! Selecting favorable sizes according to Feng Shui is of course good. But we must remember that in terms of importance, Feng Shui imperial sizes are not in first place.

First you need to pay attention to:

  1. Feng Shui at home (apartment, office)– favorable location on the terrain (mountains, water bodies, roads, other houses and structures), absence of unfavorable objects and forms, feng shui direction of the front door to attract good luck, favorable sectors inside the house and apartment, etc.
  2. Individual Ba Zi fate map of a person and his periods of good luck- this determines the potential given to a person from birth, his luck in a specific period of life and his entire life activity.
  3. And only then comes everything auxiliary: interior design according to Feng Shui (wall color according to Feng Shui, materials, etc.), imperial sizes according to Feng Shui (wallet, doors, windows, bed, etc.), paintings according to Feng Shui , figurines and more.
    For example, it will always be better to place a bed or table in a favorable sector and with bad Feng Shui sizes, than to choose a good Feng Shui size of a bed and table, and then place them in a bad sector.

In order to determine your favorable size using the Feng Shui ruler, you need to enter the size value in centimeters in the form above. Example:

What is a Feng Shui ruler and how did it come about?

Many are credited with creating the line imperial carpenter Lu Ban. He made furniture for the imperial palace and observed that objects of different sizes had different effects on the emperor and other people.

The negative or positive impact of objects that are around us is determined not only by their color and shape. Size also matters, since objects are forms that are constantly in our field of attention. They have one impact or another on each of us.

China is large and rulers also appeared in other areas and they were about the same size. There are rulers with a length of 42.96 cm, some with a length of 43.2 cm, 43.5 cm, and other lengths. There are also Feng Shui roulettes with favorable and unfavorable segments marked on them. Or you can simply use an online calculator if you know the length in centimeters.

In windows and doors when determining the favorableness of their size, one must take into account the internal dimensions, i.e., the size of the openings through which most of the energy penetrates into the apartment.
At choosing desk sizes you need to take into account its length and width. For example, for a table top we can recommend the following dimensions: width can be in the range 60-69, 81-91, length – 103-112, 124-134, 146-155. If you need other sizes, then you simply enter this size into the imperial size calculator and see which segment it falls into.

If, when measuring, for example, a table, its size is not favorable, then you can take advantage of the correction– try to divide it into a favorable length using a different color and other means. You can paint over the “extra” part under the bottom of the tabletop with red paint.

If the object is “missing” a few centimeters To get a favorable size, you can use a piece of tape or paper (cardboard, wood) and attach it to the edge of the object. This way you will symbolically add this item to the required size.

But remember, always use common sense. There is no need to measure everything with this ruler. You can measure those items that you often use: Feng Shui wallet size, bed, table, as well as the size of doors and windows.

Don’t get too carried away with imperial sizes - use common sense and moderation.

In this article you will learn:

The first mention of such a concept as imperial size according to Feng Shui dates back to the 10th century BC. during the reign of the Sung Dynasty in ancient China. An imperial court carpenter named Liu Peng developed a special measurement system for making door and window openings, decorative items and furniture. He created a special system of measures to determine favorable and unfavorable dimensions affecting the flow of Qi.

Followers of Feng Shui still use the imperial ruler today to tidy up the size of their wallet, desk and other surrounding things.

Reasons for making calculations of such sizes

Imperial sizes originate from ancient primitive measurement systems based on the length and width of the fingers and palms. The calculation of favorable and unfavorable segments was carried out by sequentially applying hands. Since in Chinese teaching the right palm is considered white (Yang) and the left palm black (Yin), then, accordingly, the areas in which the right palms fell turned out to be favorable, and the areas with the left palms promised failure.

The imperial ruler is 43.2 cm - these are the first eight palms (trigrams), each of which represents one imperial size and carries a special meaning. Each palm, that is, a trigram, is equal to 5.4 cm. Today, palms are no longer used to measure objects. Followers of the Feng Shui movement use the equivalent in conventional units: centimeters and millimeters.

Using the Feng Shui ruler correctly

In order to understand whether the value of a particular item is favorable, its initial basic parameters should be measured. For furniture and small interior items, it is customary to take into account their height, width, depth and length. When working with round and spherical things, the diameter is taken as the basic parameter. The Feng Shui ruler is always applied to the outside of the object being measured.

The meanings of certain segments on the imperial ruler are unambiguous: for example, the fourth section of the first size (4.05-5.4 cm) means joy and happiness, and the second imperial size (is an interval of 5.4-10.8 cm) brings failures, expenses and death.

Favorable sizes

Favorable ones include:

0-5.4 cm – Zhai (luck). The first size is considered favorable for all endeavors related to money and luck:

  • 0-1.35 cm - promises wealth and benefits;
  • 1.35-2.7 cm - symbolizes treasures and jewelry;
  • 2.7-4.05 cm – full spectrum of luck and harmony;
  • 4.05-5.4 cm – attracts pleasant meetings and general well-being.

16.2-21.5 cm – I (justice and protection). The fourth imperial size is an interval convenient for measuring a wallet, a wish notebook, and many personal items:

  • 16.2-17.55 cm - promises happy continuation of the family;
  • 17.55-18.9 cm – success in children’s lives;
  • 18.9-20.25 cm - indicates income from unexpected sources (3 parts are similar in meaning to 1 part of the fifth size);
  • 20.25-21.5 cm – attracts happiness in common affairs.

21.5-27 cm – Kuan (influence, career success). The fifth size carries favorable energy for all matters related to work, study and social status:

  • 21.5-22.95 cm – symbolizes luck associated with risk (winning in a casino, lottery, winning a dispute, etc.);
  • 22.95-24.3 cm - promises success in studies, helps to successfully pass exams (part 2 has something in common with part 2 of the eighth size);
  • 24.3-25.65 cm is an increase in total income from own sources (rate increase, bonus, etc.);
  • 25.65-27 cm - reflects the general well-being of the house and the respect of others.

37.5-43.2 cm – Chen (state). The eighth size is also associated with the financial well-being that a person acquires thanks to the people or events around him:

  • 37.5-38.9 cm - promises cash receipts from unexpected sources;
  • 38.9-40.35 cm - promises successful completion of trials or tests;
  • 40.35-41.77 cm – the size of jewelry and expensive items;
  • 41.77-43.2 cm – reflects a person’s overall success in life.

Unfavorable dimensions

In addition to favorable ones, the Feng Shui line also contains segments with negative values.

5.5-10.7 cm – Bin size (disease). The second imperial size is associated with a person’s physical and spiritual health, his relationships with the state and other people:

  • 5.4-6.75 cm – can lead to loss of property;
  • 6.75-8.1 cm – attracts problems with the law;
  • 8.1-9.45 cm - means imprisonment, bad luck in business;
  • 9.45-10.8 cm means illness and death of close relatives.

10.8-16.2 cm – Li (loss). The third imperial size is a set of symbols associated with financial troubles that occur through someone else's fault or by chance:

  • 10.8-12.15 cm - can lead to failures in business and affairs;
  • 12.15-13.5 cm – attracts burglars and thieves;
  • 13.5-14.85 cm is a loss of financial wealth, unfavorable in the business sphere;
  • 14.85-16.2 cm - symbolizes greedy people who will deceive you (part 4 is similar to part 2).

27-32.4 cm – Jie (loss). The sixth size has a negative meaning in the sphere of interpersonal relationships and financial solvency:

  • 27-28.35 cm - promises separation from loved ones;
  • 28.35-29.7 cm - this is the loss of a family member;
  • 29.7-31.05 cm - means expulsion, dismissal;
  • 31.05-32.4 cm - can lead to losses and quarrels.

32.4-37.5 cm – High (harm). The seventh size carries the energy of general failure in life, in the family and at work.

  • 32.4-33.7 cm - may mean an accident;
  • 33.7-34.9 cm – sudden troubles;
  • 34.9-36.25 cm – reflects illness and weakness;
  • 36.25-37.5 cm means conflicts and quarrels.

What to do if the object is more than 43.2 cm

The Chinese Feng Shui ruler is not limited to 43.2 cm. Measurements can be continued endlessly, repeating each size again. For ease of use, use classic rulers, measuring tapes and tape measures. The value of a particular size can be determined by simple mathematical calculations.

Example: To measure large pieces of furniture, such as a desk, use a simple 3-step formula:

  1. h/43.2 = x; where h is the length of the tabletop, and x should be rounded to the nearest whole number.
  2. 43.2 * x = y; where y is a variable value.
  3. h – y = z; where z is the desired size according to Feng Shui.

If we translate the example into numbers, then when measuring a table with a tabletop length of 150 cm, we get the following:

  1. 150/43.2 = 3.47; round the resulting number to 3.
  2. 43,2 * 3 = 129,6.
  3. 150 – 129,6 = 20,4.

The result obtained has a favorable interpretation and attracts success in general affairs. If, after calculations, a number is obtained from an unfavorable interval of the ruler, then you can “deceive” the energy flows by painting or covering the “extra” centimeters with red.

Imperial wallet sizes

A correctly selected wallet affects overall well-being, financial wealth and good luck. The Feng Shui line contains 4 favorable intervals, 2 of which directly relate to money. The most convenient for everyday use and at the same time the “correct” size is considered to be a wallet with a length of 16.2 to 21.5 cm.

The Five Elements system, or elements, is one of the main foundations in the practice of Feng Shui. It is believed that the interaction of Yin-Yang allows Qi energy to exist in different forms. And they are called the five elements - Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water. All objects, natural phenomena, and even we ourselves consist of the Five Elements! If you delve into the essence of this theory, learn to understand and apply it, you can achieve amazing results.

Feng Shui elements and money

Water. The most changeable and mysterious element. She is responsible for our thoughts, which are then transformed into actions. If you are used to considering money as something dirty, saying that it spoils people, then you are unlikely to get rich yourself. Think respectfully about money. Imagine that you already have the required amount. Start feeling like a white person. For example, sometimes take a taxi instead of the bus. Buy expensive perfume. and so on. Try to live beyond your means at least sometimes for a day. And don’t torment yourself with thoughts about how much money you spent. What is done is done. Your purchases are your good mood. It’s not for nothing that they say money after money.

Earth. Motto - Favorite thing. The element of stability and confidence. Responsible for our past, future and present. Her possessions are the ways through which money flows into your life. Don't limit your luck with pessimism that you will never be lucky, lack connections, or get a good job. Optimism receives material support from life more often than those who block the cash flow with negative thoughts and words. Remember that doing what you love will bring big profits. Efforts invested with soul always return in the form of solid material rewards.

Fire. The motto is to spend. An uncontrollable active element, powerful energy. The wisdom of Fire consists in the ability to love ardently and passionately, and spend money intuitively, under the influence of the momentary mood. Allow impulse shopping. If you constantly save, you slow down the flow of monetary energy, which does not like stagnation. Material energy must be constantly renewed. Remember, the money spent will be replaced by new ones. Love others and yourself! The energy of money and feelings are two components of one whole. When the heart is filled with love, mechanisms are activated that attract money into our lives. There is even a pattern: if there has been no sex in your life for a long time, then your financial status will not grow. And if you have a lot of debtors, this indicates that you refuse to accept someone’s love. If you often become a debtor yourself, it means you are not giving people the love you are capable of.

Metal. The motto is enough of everything and a lot. Symbolizes firmness, confidence, endurance, determination. Responsible for niches, immediate plans and long-term goals. If you can tie money to specific goals, its energy will begin to work for you and fuel your desires. You need to clearly see the goal and know specifically how much money you need for this. Sometimes people want to have a lot of money without specifying how much. For one person a lot is a thousand, for another a million. If you agree to a small amount, then that's what you'll get. Modesty is not appropriate here. Don't be afraid to raise the bar, want more, don't limit yourself. Plan your expenses. Life needs to be easier.

Tree. The motto is not to waste time on trifles. This is the element of order and strength. It helps us preserve capital. To attract money, fold it neatly, piece of paper to piece of paper. Money scattered around the house and stuffed into pockets is a sure sign of destroying your well-being. Keep large bills in your wallet. A pack of tens is an illusion of wealth. Accustom your mind to large bills. Ideally, have a large, irreplaceable bill with you.

An interesting fact is that the imagination and enthusiasm of Fire can be very beautifully combined with the sensuality of people who belong to the elements of Earth. It is these two qualities that will be dominant in such a union of two people, which will complement the relationship and develop it in such a way that it is as harmonious and beautiful as possible.


Fire+Metal Relationships

Fire and metal are opposing elements, and fire suppresses – melts and destroys – metal. Metal tries to subjugate it to its will and impose its opinion on fire, which results in an acute conflict. However, the situation can be softened by the sense of humor inherent in both signs. To harmonize relations, a softening mediator is needed - the earth. Elements of earth must be present in the house.

As you know, fire melts metal. This can significantly complicate a couple's relationship. People who can be classified as the elements of metal will try to impose a personal opinion on their partner, which is fraught with a break in the relationship and simply unpleasant or even catastrophic consequences.

The fire will gradually destroy the metal, thereby provoking a fight within the couple, which may not have a very good effect on the relationship. But a positive feature is that people within such a couple will be able to normally evaluate the actions of other people from the point of view of expediency and will pass them all through the prism of healthy humor, which is inherent in both representatives of fire and representatives of metal.

Sometimes it is better to laugh at your partner’s actions than to take them with hostility and thereby strain the relationship within the couple.

It is believed that this combination is not favorable, since water can extinguish fire. However, in addition to its destructive effect on fire, water can bring a creative moment and energy into its life.

Despite the fact that both water people and fire people are capable of constructive dialogue and communication, it will be very difficult for them to convey their point of view and their thoughts to each other. Moreover, it will be problematic for them to show their feelings in such a way that they are accepted by the second partner and correctly understood.

Wood people can give greater stability to impulsive representatives of Fire, and at the same time, the very energy of the latter can encourage their partner in such a pair to strive for greater achievements than those that he has already achieved or would have achieved alone.

A good role in such a pair is played by the fact that both fire and wood are optimists. They can quite accurately predict certain events, but fire and wood can also do this by looking at things sensibly!

Earth+Water Relationships

It will be difficult for such a couple, since both are overly sensitive and vulnerable. The earth is reliable and stable, but stubborn. The stubbornness of the earth affects the more vulnerable water. In a practical sense, the union of earth and water is quite effective. Water is a creative nature.

Metal+Metal Relationships

Like other couples, they will have their ups and downs, but they will always find the strength to support each other for the good of the couple.

This union can also be considered very successful, because both parties support each other. Both partners will be guided by intuition, which is almost the most important way for them to know their partner; none of the participants in such an alliance will ever get tired of the other, because their relationship can be perfectly supported by each other’s initiative.

Then, when one partner gets tired of taking the initiative, the second partner will be able to replace him. And the first partner will have time to rest and when the second one is exhausted, he can replace him.


Metal+Wood Relationship

The combination of these signs can lead to conflict. Because both strive to rule and make decisions. At the same time, a sociable tree will love company, while metal will prefer solitude. This will irritate each other. But the tree is more flexible. And, most likely, he will get used to the unsociability of metal. Metal will suffer from the high demands of wood. But if metal does not argue with its idealistic partner. They will succeed. For such a couple, the main thing is to be able to give in and compromise in time.

Such a couple may experience certain difficulties, because both partners will strive for power and supremacy. And each of them will insist on their own point of view. At the same time, wood people will strive for people, they will want communication, and metal people will feel great alone.

At the same time, the metal will wonder why the tree wants to leave its company, which is not right, because they just want to relax with friends and company.

Also, the reaction of tree people to a partner’s desire for privacy can be extremely negative, because they will be irritated by the desire of tree people to be secluded.

A positive feature of such relationships is that both partners are very responsible. If wood people accept the fact that metal sometimes needs to be alone, relationships will normalize, but at the same time, metal people also need to not only build relationships in a normal style, but make significant concessions for their partner.

In this case, the relationship will be just the kind that will suit both partners. But keep in mind that very often your character will need to be slightly changed in order for you and your partner to feel more comfortable in the relationship.

The fact that partners should not lose themselves with such changes in their character will play a rather important role. You need to remain yourself, but make concessions voluntarily and without any expectation of a response. This type of relationship is only possible on both sides.
