🌈  The interdependence and restraint of the Five Elements:

The relationship between the five elements not only reflects the harmony of nature, but also provides guidance for our lives. The symbiotic relationship (wood generates fire, fire generates soil, soil generates metal, metal generates water, water generates wood) represents a positive cycle, while the symbiotic relationship (wood restrains soil, soil restrains water, water restrains fire, fire restrains metal, metal restrains wood) reminds us to maintain balance in life and avoid excessive behavior.
