Element Metal: characteristics and influence on humans

Element of personality. Metal Yang, Gen 庚

The personality element in Chinese Bazi astrology is the basis on which all subsequent analysis is based.

And in this article I will talk about the personality element Metal Yang 庚. After all, it is Metal Yang that rules the roost in the year of the Metal Rat. And since the year of the Rat opens the 12-year cycle of the calendar, the energy of time until 2032 will be the Yang Metal.

This is important to understand, since from 2021 for all these 12 years, not only trends in society will change, but also the relationship between space and time. We take the latter into account, for example, when choosing a favorable floor in an apartment building, and not only.

Therefore, it is especially important to understand what Yang Metal is, what its properties and character are.

Yang Metal Gen is a heavy metal, steel. It is a symbol of endurance and hardness, as weapons, swords and knives are made from it. The character Geng 庚 depicts harvesting the fruits of the earth or a man with a bow and arrow.

The metal is associated with autumn and mature age. Rules and fairness are very important to him. Therefore, issues of the struggle for justice will be very relevant.

One example of the influence of the energies of Yang Metal as an element of time is the widespread spread of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement.

It was in the year of the Metal Rat, since May 2021, after the death of African-American George Floyd at the hands of white police officer Derek Chauvin, that up to 26 million people took part in demonstrations, according to a survey published in the New York Times on July 3, 2021.

Please note that the previous year of the Metal Rat, 1960, was declared the Year of Africa by the UN. That year, 17 countries of the African continent immediately gained real independence.

In the photo on the right is a USSR Post stamp issued in 1970 and dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the UN Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples.

It is believed that a person born on the day of Geng 庚 has leadership qualities.

This is a principled and very direct person who finds it difficult to compromise. At the same time, Yang Metal 庚 is a reliable and loyal friend.

Important qualities of Yang Metal Gen 庚

Metal Yang (Gen) is an image of raw metal, heavy metal, steel. Weapons, swords and knives are made from it. Yang Metal is considered a symbol of endurance and hardness.

Therefore, Yang Metal endows a person with the following qualities:

• Endurance, observation, assertiveness and determination. Such a person is always ready for combat and rushes forward without hesitation.
• Strong sense of equality and justice. Metal in Bazi is responsible for justice, so a person of Yang Metal hates injustice.
• Integrity, directness. Such people are inflexible and find it difficult to compromise.
• Leadership are also usually good speakers.

Metal is an ordered and rigid structure, so rules and order are important to it.

Because knives and swords are sharp and tough, a Yang Metal person has destructive potential, which he can channel into constructive channels and achieve great things.

Metal Yang (Gen) speaks 庚

One of the brightest representatives of the Metal Yang personality element is the “Iron Lady” Margaret Thatcher (Eng. Margaret Hilda Thatcher; October 13, 1925 - April 8, 2013) - a British statesman and political figure.

Not afraid of any difficulties, overcoming any obstacles, she managed to hold on as Prime Minister of Great Britain for 11 years, becoming the first and so far the only woman (struggle for equality and justice!) to ever hold this position.

A few more striking quotes from Margaret Thatcher that reveal the character of Yang Metal Gen:

• The home should be the center, but not the boundary, of women's lives.
• You need to study your enemy well, then one day you can turn him into a friend.
• Doing everything with an open heart is not a good idea. The heart should remain closed, so it functions better.
• As a rule, 10 seconds are enough for me to form an opinion about a person, and then it rarely changes.
• Being powerful is like being a real lady. If you have to remind people that you are, you definitely aren't.

And here are also these quotes on behalf of Metal Yang, as the owner of 2020, the year of the Metal Rat:

Metal in the 10 deities of the bazi

Basic Concepts

The Chinese horoscope comes from the image of the division of everything in the universe from the One into two, the traditional Yin and Yang.

Yin and Yang is a complex concept that says that everything in the world has two essences that together represent a single whole: day and night, feminine and masculine, hard and soft, and so on.

Yin and Yang are each further divided in half, they are assigned four properties, and on this basis the theory of the entire worldview of Asia is built. This is the division of all phenomena recorded by man in the world into four properties: cold, heat, humidity and dryness. And in the center is the Earth.

There is further division, but we are interested in the following concept - “There is Heaven, there is Earth, and in between them is Man.” The Chinese horoscope is based precisely on this concept.

This is a very important concept, how a Person feels, what he thinks, where he lives and what actions he performs is the passage and connection of energies between Heaven and Earth. Fate depends on this.

All reasoning, which is reproduced in the well-known concept of “U-Xing,” is based on the separation of four properties, in the center of which is the Earth. "U-Xing" literally translates as "five steps", "five moves". It includes five elements of the elements, which, in turn, are in relationships with each other.

The most important relationships: generation and overcoming.

The system looks something like this:

Sky

- these are the five elements of the elements that continuously move and move. Please note that by Sky we mean Space, and not the stratosphere of our planet. There are five elements in the world, and they are in constant rotation.

Elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water.

In Heaven, the interactions of these elements are called “Heavenly Stems” and each of them is further divided according to the Yin-Yang principle, so there are not five, but ten.

The resulting combinations are called “ 10 heavenly trunks”

" They are sometimes called "Sky Patterns".

Moreover, these are strictly defined combinations, like axioms that do not allow free interpretations. There is also a relationship between them. In addition to generating and overcoming, they know how to enter into mergers.

The Earth dominates the (trunks) of the Yang Tree and the Yin Earth.

Metal dominates (trunks) Yin Wood and Yang Metal.

Water dominates (trunks) Yang Fire and Yin Metal.

The tree dominates (trunks) Yin Fire and Yang Water.

Fire dominates the (trunks) of Yang Earth and Yin Water.

These 10 Heavenly Stems form the level of Heaven or Heavenly Qi, invisible and intangible, formless, they are called Heavenly Stems.

The level of the Earth, forms that are material and embodied, are called Earthly branches.

There is Qi in them in the form of hidden heavenly trunks, but the Earthly Branches themselves, as a form, are not Qi and do not produce it. They are only able to accumulate it and thereby acquire material form. With the help of Qi phases, one can only determine to what extent each NS is capable of taking shape and accumulating in each of the 12 ZVs.

There are only 60 combinations of NS and SV combinations.

These options are a way of recording a person’s date of birth, taking into account the hour of birth. Therefore, in fact, the Chinese horoscope is nothing more than a digital record of a person’s birth in the form of Qi in the NS and earthly forms of pollutants through hieroglyphs.

In addition to the very recording of a person’s date of birth, the Chinese horoscope has a system of concepts of 10 deities, bearing both archetypal images and literally everyday ones, embodied in the form of immaterial Qi in the NS and matter and real objects in the GE.

The 10 deities also represent conventionally divided different spheres of human life. Again coming from the Wu Xing structure. Namely:

The Self is the Brotherhood, the Robber of Wealth;

Self-expression - Spirit of pleasure, Challenge of power;

Wealth - Straight and Oblique;

Authority - Direct Official and Seventh Murderer;

Printing - Straight and Oblique.

The basis for the division is the NA of the day from the person’s date of birth.

Note,

basic concepts and 10 Heavenly trunks, as well as their Qi elements according to yin-yang polarity and 10 deities are formed in the Chinese microcosm according to the principle of OPPOSITE, with Yang and Yin generating each other. But at the same time there are also harmonious relations of mergers. And if you choose between the relations of generation and merger, the latter are much more harmonious and better.

Man and the element Metal

The element of Metal endows its wards with unbending willpower, an incredible charge of energy and determination. The Metal man is not without adventurism and is ready to take risks at any moment. Such a person is independent and independent, and does not need outside help. He is overly categorical and smug, so he will not tolerate criticism and can explode, causing a loud scandal. He confidently walks through life, relying only on his own convictions, and throughout his life, pursuing the goals he has set for himself. At the same time, he does not pay attention to the opinions of others. This ambitious person devotes himself entirely to his life's work. Faith in success, perseverance, and patience help a person of the Metal element sign to always achieve the desired goals, without deviating from the path that was initially laid out and thought out to the smallest detail. By the way, any problems and failures will not force him to give up, but still he does not like surprises.

If people are born under the signs of the Zodiac, which endow their wards with endurance, stability and constancy, then the element of Metal further enhances these qualities. Just as steel is tempered in battle, so these people become stronger with each new test of fate. It is not without reason that in world history there are many famous military leaders, commanders or generals who were born under the auspices of the Metal sign. The external uncompromisingness and coldness of these people cannot hide from those around them the frantic flow of energy that they emit. However, only by overcoming their intractability will they be able to use their full potential to the fullest and successfully realize themselves, both in their careers and in their personal lives. After all, then nothing can stop them from building warm, trusting and strong relationships with loved ones.

Character of a man Metal

The Metal man is an uncompromising, independent and categorical person, because he is absolutely convinced of his own uniqueness and strives to show everyone around him how individual and unique he is. He is an incredibly ambitious and selfish person. He always mercilessly and headlong rushes towards his cherished goal. This applies to absolutely all areas of activity. However, such swiftness and perseverance prevent him from assessing his achievements and enjoying the long-awaited triumph, so usually, having achieved the desired goal, he, as a rule, fails to feel true happiness and pleasure from what he so zealously strived for. Often similar situations happen in his personal life. The Metal man is simply unable to admit that there are moments in a love relationship when you just need to listen to the words of the chosen one.

A man of the Metal element is simply confident that the life partner he has chosen for himself will certainly please him and indulge all his whims. This man can easily cope not only with the role of a husband and father, providing the family with everything necessary, but also with the roles of a lover and a great seducer at the same time. Of course, the character of the Metal Man indicates that he, as a self-sufficient, powerful and independent person, prefers to stand at the head of the family, demonstrating his superiority and power over his wife. Although, this gives him certain advantages in family relationships. Having built a truly strong family and being convinced of the correctness of his choice, a Metal man is unlikely to decide to have an affair “on the side” and will be a faithful husband to his chosen one.

True, in the lives of men of the Metal element there are periods of melancholy, when they strive for loneliness, torment themselves with doubts and suffer from self-criticism. First of all, their thirst for power is based on their own ambitions, so if they ever have to make a choice between their career and personal life, then most likely they will choose the first and leave the second to chance. They are simply convinced that their personal relationships will pass any test of strength. In some matters, these men are so unshakable that they sometimes seem insensitive and cold, devoid of love and passion. But in reality, they are endowed with developed intuition, which helps them successfully overcome even such life difficulties that others cannot overcome. They just have a strong nervous system, excellent ingenuity and a lot of energy.

The Metal man is a real ace in bed. He subtly senses the desires of his chosen one and usually determines what exactly turns her on even before making love. For him, love will forever remain his main source of pleasure and way of self-knowledge. The partner of such a man needs to prepare for the fact that from time to time the impression will be created that her companion thinks only about himself. However, in fact, this is a sign that the Metal man still feels lonely. A self-sufficient person like him can be happy even while remaining a single bachelor. However, for a woman who can appreciate and respect his enterprise and narcissism, he will certainly want to become a devoted and faithful spouse.

Character of a woman Metal

The Metal woman chooses her life partner very meticulously. It is important for her that she can unconditionally trust her chosen one, feel safe next to him and, most importantly, maintain her own independence in an honest and trusting relationship. At the same time, it is important for her that she be the absolute leader in the relationship, and nothing else. If suddenly a Metal woman has connected her life with a man who is unable to provide her with love, respect and material wealth, she will, willy-nilly, tear such a union to pieces so that nothing will remain. The Metal element woman admires power and sexuality. She is a rather voluptuous lady who enthusiastically enjoys erotic pleasures, causing a storm of emotions in her.

The Metal woman loves risk and danger, which make her sensations even sharper, but she is unlikely to succumb to such temptations and will not go to great lengths. First of all, she is a true owner, and at heart a loner. In addition, "walking to the left" can cost her peace of mind for many years, because she will immediately have a terrible feeling of guilt. Far from the only obstacle to a close relationship with her is her serious approach to life. The Metal Woman strives to fill every corner of her lover’s soul, but no lover can do the same with her, since she will not allow anyone to encroach on her own freedom.

The Metal Woman is used to the fact that she can conquer any peak. She needs communication, prestige, a high position in society, love and recognition, but, most importantly, her chosen one can provide all this to her.

The Metal woman often chooses loneliness rather than family life. She is a very independent person, it is easier for her to live knowing that she can only count on herself. In addition, her fear of experiencing love disappointment is much stronger than the hope of meeting the man of her dreams soon. But she skillfully uses the lack of personal life in order to achieve incredible heights in her career. She carefully monitors her appearance and style of clothing, so there are always a lot of gentlemen hovering around her.

In bed, a Metal woman can be both a temptress and a sophisticated one. If in a love affair she takes the position of leader, then she can always leave if she wants. But if the initiator of intimacy is a man, then she can completely surrender to her feelings, dissolving in her partner without a trace.

The influence of Metal on human health

In the human body, the influence of the element of Metal is manifested in the colon and lungs. As you know, the main principle of the Universe is the accumulation and subsequent release of energy. Thus, a person’s lungs absorb and store energy, and the large intestine is responsible for releasing it. When the nature of Metal is not in order, a person may begin to have problems with these organs of the body.

The breathing process can be controlled, and in some cases it is even necessary. The main thing is to learn to do it correctly and profitably, because with the help of various breathing techniques you can eliminate malfunctions in many physiological, emotional, and mental processes of the human body. Well, healthy food and a proper diet will help you cope with the health of your colon.
