Wood Qualities

Characteristics of The
Chinese Element Wood

Those born in a year ruled by the Chinese element Wood are confident, ethical and have high morals. They also have many different interests that are usually very wide and varied. Their compassion and cooperative nature draws others to them. They are all about growth and renewal and can take on projects on a large scale very successfully. They are very competent on their own, but understand the need for others skills and cooperation. They make sure that everyone gets rewarded for a job well done, and most jobs controlled by Wood are well done.

Like Water, they have an ability to convince others to join forces with them. However, unlike Water, they want to lead. They are very capable of taking on many different projects at once, and prioritize well. People influenced by Wood will be very fortunate financially. They will always be able to find financing for their projects when and where it is needed. They have an uncanny ability to get the support of others, and that includes financial support. Their ventures usually become highly profitable and successful. Wood greatly enhances drive, compassion and understanding the value of people and things within the astrological sign.

People influenced by Wood are usually very progressive and “with the times”. They tend to be always looking to the future and find ways they can make it better. They can be very innovative and would be great in positions where good-will, compassion and drive were needed. Their ability to compartmentalize and prioritize also sets them apart. They could easily handle top secret projects without any worry of ethics or deceit.

With all of the varied interests and abilities of Wood, they can sometimes bite off more than they can chew. Sometimes they may not be able to finish what they start, or will flit from interest to interest without making a concrete goal for themselves, or creating any true success.

Positive Wood, the active or yang part, is felt in Wood’s need to constantly build and create their destinies. Their incredible ability to gain the support of others and handle multiple projects or project aspects, in addition to their drive to succeed, can sometimes make them appear to be machines. They need to be careful of burn out. Since aspects of this element lean toward compassion and good-will, they need to be careful that their desire for constant growth includes both others growth, and their own.

Negative Wood, the passive or yin part, is also felt in Wood’s need for constant growth and renewal. It’s just the other side of the coin. The desire for constant renewal can sometimes get in the way of completion. Things that are constantly being renewed never fully reach their potential. Care needs to be taken to finish what they start.

Those ruled by the Chinese element Wood need to take care that their need for constant growth and renewal includes both aspects in moderation. Growth alone can not succeed without some occasional renewal, but constant renewal can not succeed if time is not allowed for growth.
