Earth Qualities

Characteristics of The
Chinese Element Earth

Those born in a year ruled by the Chinese element Earth are very practical. They are not easily excitable, and weigh all sides before coming to a conclusion. They tend to be self-disciplined, methodical and well organized. There is always a method to what they do. They seldom exaggerate, so when they tell you something is a certain way, you can depend on it actually being that way. Astrological signs containing self-discipline, organization and practicality will be greatly enhanced when born in an Earth year.

Those influenced by Earth have the capability of taking whatever resources they have available to them and using them to their greatest benefit. They manage their affairs with a firm, but fair, hand. These are the planners. They plot a path to their desired goal, and then methodically work toward it. They try to take all unforeseen possibilities into account during their planning. They don’t like surprises.

Sometimes they are considered to lack imagination because of their serious nature. Their methodical and practical nature does not allow for silly, unattainable dreams. If they have a dream, they have to have a plan to get there. If they can not see a way to plan out their path, they move on to other, more attainable dreams.

Their objectivity allows them to see both sides of a story, and get to the bottom of the truth. They have great powers of deduction, perspective and foresight, which makes them excellent detectives and fact finders. Their direct delivery of facts and findings without exaggeration, also adds to this. Because they tend to see things in black and white, they can become pessimists quite easily. They know what is in the world, both the good and the bad, which can also make them a little over-protective of their loved ones.

Positive Earth, the active or yang part, is seen in the methodical way that they continue toward their goals even in the face of challenges and adversity. In this, they are much like the mountain they represent, standing stoically in the face of the storm.

Negative Earth, the passive or yin part, is found in their practicality and reserve. No one can argue with their absolute logic.

Those ruled by the Chinese element Earth need to learn that the world is not always just black and white. Sometimes there are shades of gray, and when dealing with emotions, there is often no logic at all. There is a fine balance that needs to be kept between dreaming the dreams and the practical attainment of those dreams.
