@MeddyNYC The 5 elements ultimately come from an ancient understanding of chemistry (alchemy) before we realized that this is not stand up to scientific scrutiny. Now, we have a periodic table of elements. The table really originated in the West from four elements, but the Chinese had 5.
what is this chart related too? I don't get it? Yeah I understand what destroyed and what creates what...but the point?? is this related to locations on body or location physically around you?? you said computer electronics...so the layout in my house? huh?
As the earth was forming, heavier elements mainly iron & various other molecularly dense metals sank into the molten core. Lighter elements rose to the surface. Earth is over 90% molten iron. This left me feeling the Cycle 1st explained may need a fix: Fire (Big bang & stellar nucleogenesis) forms Metal. Earth then released Water. Wood as trees are living tissue; plant cellulose 85%-95% Water. (BTW: in the N hemisphere mold, fungi, & moss grow naturally on southern facing trees, rocks & walls.)
@cstritz Another theory is that dew/water vapor gather easily on metal surfaces. Also combustion can't occur without something to burn, it needs fuel. According to Bagua, wind falls under the jurisdiction of wood, not to mention air shares the same word with Qi already. Are you even attempting to accept something different, or are you just here to mock another culture?
wait wait wait... metal melts and turns into water??? And you said when you burn wood it creates fire.. what did you use to burn the wood in the first place?? Fire! Hence fire exists without wood. the only thing fire needs is oxygen which is part of air which i always thought was more of an element than metal.. How did metal get mixed into this?? I thought the four elements were earth, air, water, and fire. Wood isn't part of earth? lol This whole thing is simply wrong in every way haha
"when the metal melts, it turns into water" ...? Come on man...

@jas16899 the 5 elements are meant to be seen as "prime matter" that make up everything else.
