THE WOOD ELEMENT

METAL |  WATER|  WOOD |  FIRE |  EARTH

People born under the auspices of the Wood element value their ethics; they have high morals and a good deal of self-confidence. They know the intrinsic value of things and their interests are wide and varied. Their expansive and cooperative natures will allow them to do things on a grand scale. They possess executive personalities because they can apportion and separate matters into the right categories and work orders. Their progressiveness and generosity enable them to take on large projects, long-term or sizable developments or expensive scientific studies -- definitely not one-man ventures.

They have the ability to convince others to merge and join forces with them. They branch out rapidly and diversify into many fields whenever possible, as they advocate constant growth and renewal. They know how to share whatever rewards they reap by collective effort with all those who justly deserve a piece of the corporate pie. Their innate goodwill and compassionate understanding of how others think and operate will raise them to very fortunate positions. They will find support and finances whenever and wherever they have need of them for people will have faith in their ability to turn information and ideas into profit.

Their chief shortcoming is that they tend to bite off more than they can chew and push things to a breaking point. They may not be able to finish what they start if they spread their resources too thin. Their plans could then turn sour or they may drift from one project to another without satisfactory results.
