Feng Shui in Our Lives
Which Career Path Should You Take
16 Feburary 2022
'Should I change jobs?'
'Which industry is suitable for me?'
These are some of the most commonly asked questions by the younger generation who joined the working force for a few years and are beginning to wonder if they are on the right path.
The 5 Elements
The Ancient Chinese Metaphysics classifies all things in the universe under 5 Elements, Metal (金), Wood (木), Water (水), Fire (火) and Earth(土). This 5 Element theory is to help us understand the Universal order of our world.
It does not mean that things are made of one of these 5 elements, but rather, has the nature of a particular element, based on its properties and characteristics. The 5 elements are dynamic, they are energies in constant motion. They interact in 2 fundamental ways, either generation or restraint.
It is our choices that determine our destiny. ~Master Sherwin
We interact with each other and our environment in more ways than we are aware of and the inter-connected relationships can be explained through the 5 Elements Theory. Based on our Eight Characters ( 八字), all of us are strong in certain elements while lacking in others. Through our activities and interactions, we either achieve a balance or further tilt the imbalance.
Jobs and the industry of trade also have their own elements based on their distinct characteristics. You can excel in some and struggle in another, depending on whether the job nature has a generation or restraint relationship with you. Here is a guide to which element group they belong to.
