Rooster fire chinese astrology4/14/2024 When the elements interact, like the opposing sides of a yin yang symbol, progress (whether positive or negative) is inevitable. In the Five Elements theory, it is the interaction between the elements that both creates and destroys energy. All of the astrological archetypes that have now become memes originated here. None are better or worse than the other and all play off of each other. Without one element (or type), the other element doesn’t exist. These ideas around the elements and how they relate is the root of why we call fire signs feisty and water signs sensitive. In Tropical Western astrology, there is a similar concept of four elements––earth, air, fire and water––originally described by Plato in Timaeus. This theory forms the basis of not only the Chinese zodiac but of other Eastern traditions like feng shui, holistic medicine, acupuncture, divination (such as the I Ching) and martial arts. All elements are interconnected and there is no hierarchy. This teaching is all about finding balance and embracing the process. These are derived from the Five Elements Theory-or Wu Xing-a philosophy used to describe the relationship and interdependence between all things. There are five elements of the Chinese zodiac: wood, fire, earth, metal and water.
