The
Five Elements Of Life
The
law of Nature states that for all that exist in
this world, there are always two sides to them
(The Principle of Yin and Yang)
Yin
& Yang: They are two individual natural form of
energy that exists in our Universe, opposing yet
interrelating.
Yin
and Yang expresses the evolution of all that exists
on this Earth. They are the opposites of one another,
which together make up the whole. life is only
made possible because of the interaction between
Yin and Yang. We can never do without the existence
of either of them. You can never have Yang without
Yin and vice versa.
For
your easier understanding, think of it this way.
In life, there are always two sides to everything
too. When there is Day there will be Night. When
there is feminine there will be male and when
there is failure, there will also be success and
etc.
Our
life is all greatly affected by the influence
of Yin and Yang. A balance between these two opposing
energy is always to be sought. When they are in
balance, we feel good. But when we have too much
or too less of either, we feel unwell. Think of
it this way. In order to stay healthy and to work
well, we have to have the appropriate hours of
sleep and rest too.
To
achieve the best of our life, we have to understand
and follow this principle of Yin and Yang, to
seek a balance in life; to establish a Yin and
Yang balanced environment for ourselves (both
physically and spiritually)
And
what that brought about this ultimate balance
of this very world in which we are residing are
five very elements. The five elements of life:
Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water.
All
forms on this Earth belong to either one of the
above-mentioned five elements and are always in
one way or another, mutually affecting one another,
which in turn affect our life. This is an ever-going
cycle in the law of Nature.
It
is the relationship of these very five elements
that brought about the formation of this Earth
(The basis of Yin & Yang)
The
Productive Cycle:
- Water
generates Wood: The rain nourishes the Earth,
bringing about the growth of the plants and
trees
- Wood
generates Fire: The plants and trees are by
nature, combustible matter which generates fire
- Fire
generates Earth: Under flames, article turn
into ashes which form soil
- Earth
generates Metal: Soil contains minerals which
over time, form metal
-
Metal generates Water: Under flames, metal melt
into liquid state and likewise water dew is
formed quickly on cool metal surfaces
The
Destructive Cycle:
-
Water destroys Fire: Water can extinguish fire
- Fire
destroys Metal: Fire can melt metal
-
Metal destroys Wood: Metal cut wood apart
- Wood
destroys Earth: Wood can thrust into soil
- Earth
destroys Water: Soil is able to retain water,
preventing flood
As
you can see in the above 2 cycles, the presence
of all the five elements is required to bring
about a balance of this world. Having too much
or too little of any of the above five elements
is never desired. For instance, too much of a
heat from the sun can cause drought while too
much of a rain can inversely cause flood and so
on. A balance is always to be sought (The principle
of Yin and Yang)
And
for your understanding, the time, year and date
of birth of yours are also categorized as under
one of the five elements.
Meaning
to say? You are one essential element that cannot
be missing from the whole picture.
Remember.
You came into this world with a very personal
life element of yours. And within this personal
element of yours, you will find your strengths
and weakness.
The
five elements of life have got each of their individual
value. Understand your strength well. You have
that unique ability of your too. Make good and
correct use of it, you are certainly someone capable
of great accomplishment too.
