Harmony of the Five Elements and the Poetry of Crystals: The Art of Choosing Stones in Resonance with Nature

・Introduction: The rhythm of the universe woven by the five elements 

The five elements, a profound Eastern wisdom, explains the cycles of nature through five essences, from the budding of spring to the silence of winter. Wood, fire, earth, metal, and water — these are not merely classifications but the very breath of the universe. Our bodies, minds, and even the crystals we hold in our hands are all part of this magnificent harmony.

・Dance of the Five Elements: The dance of life woven by the five energies

Gold (kon / kin) — Purifying breath

The metallic quality, like the crisp autumn air, symbolizes refined aesthetics and intelligence. It represents the pure energy of discarding the unnecessary and discerning the true essence.

Wood - the breath of life

Like young leaves rustling in the spring breeze, Wood represents all beginnings. Growth, expansion, and flexibility — the energy that supports new challenges and life transitions.

Water – Wisdom of the Deep

Like the quiet flow of winter, the water element is the realm of the subconscious and intuition. It harbors a flexible wisdom that changes shape while opening up new paths.

Fire - the flame of passion

The fire element, burning like the midsummer sun, is the power of creativity and transformation, a cleansing energy that brings passion, joy, and rebirth through destruction.

Do (soil) - the heart of the earth

Earth, which governs the changing of the seasons, symbolizes nourishment and stability. Like Mother Earth, it nurtures everything and has the power to shape reality.

・Know your five elements: Dialogue with your element

Your five elements can be determined from your date of birth. The easiest way is to look at the last digit of your birth year.

Trailing digits	five element attributes	Features
4, 5	tree	Highly creative, but vulnerable to stress
6, 7	fire	Passionate but prone to burnout
8, 9	soil	Realistic but can be stubborn
0, 1	gold	Logical but cold
twenty three	water	Intuitive, but prone to instability
