In the law of The Five Elements from Traditional Chinese Medicine wood (think trees, spring, growth, creativity, new ideas, structure, planning) controls earth (think river and road banks, late summer, harvest, being held, nurtured, nourished, supported.) In my former life as a commuter I often used to see trees on railway banks being chopped down or stunted, knowing there would be a landslip later...the earth element was not getting to be held by the tree roots. There would then need to be a repair job...the earth element would need refirming, restoring, mulching and given a way to be held often by a harder structure than tree roots. This got me thinking this morning about how I am really supporting my earth element. Which structures in my life are really holding me and which may lead to a metaphorical land slip. Slightly deep thinking for a Friday morning..but it feels useful as we are mid way between eclipses. Have a wonderful Friday, Sarah-Jayne 🌎 🌟
