Metal embodies the intellect and the mental aspect in our life. It can be defined as our ability to focus, be quick, be determined, be sharp, clear communication and deep intellectual clarity. Metaphors such as "mind like a steel trap" and "razor sharp mind" convey this definition.
The material itself is can be noted as our human signature, in that we take it from the earth and manipulate it into various forms. Metal can be dramatic and strong, think sculpture, jewellery and buildings. And can be the epitome of strength and endurance, think granite and marble.
Too much metal can
- leave us unable to compromise
- inability to change course even when it makes sense
- brittle
- sharp tongues
- being weak or over processed
- have trouble connecting
- lack flexibility
- over analysis
Too little metal can be
- procrastination
- avoidance
- spineless
- forgetting
- forgetful
- unable to stick to your own integrity.
Metal cuts wood; Metal holds water; Metal consumes earth.
To lessen Metal you can add Fire as it melts metal.
Metal as a structural commodity in our life is, like all of the other elements, needing balance.
Out of Earth, Wood, Fire, Water and Metal. How would you number these in order from greatest element in your life to least in your life?
Which of these elements would you like to nourish?
Which of these would you like to control?
