This week’s Topics: Metal / Autumn

We are now into our Five Elements/Seasons series and today our topic is Metal or the Season of Autumn. In the description of the Earth Element you can maybe get some ideas for your entry.

A person with well balanced Metal energy is well organized, self disciplined, and conscientious. They like structure in their life. They are most comfortable in situations when they know the rules and can succeed by following them. Metal Qi bestows a deep inner strength, like ore mined from the mountains. The color for Metal is white.

This series in particular, look through your archives of photos since we are covering all the seasons of the year. I hope even those of you who don’t have the typical seasons because you live near the equator I hope you want to use the color or element for your posts. Have fun and be as creative as you like.

Current Series: Five Elements/Seasons

Wood / Spring
Fire / Summer
Earth / Harvest
Metal / Fall
Water / Winter – The Water energy is a strong generative force centered in the lower belly. When the Kidney Qi is strong, a person is fearless, determined, and can endure many hardships in pursuit of their goals. Persevering by will power is characteristic of those with strong Kidney Qi. The color for water is blue.
