The Interplay of the Five Elements in Our Lives
by HealerGeorge
As you are sitting here reading this allow your awareness to turn inwards into yourself. We are going to discuss the five elements and see how they interact in our lives.
A good place to start is with a simple example. Just imagine that you are going to do a little gardening. The first thing one does is loosen the soil. By digging the soil what we are doing is breaking the soil up or should I say mixing the Air Element with the Earth Element.
The next thing a good gardener will do is plant the seed or introduce the Life Force Element. He will then water the seed or introduce the Water Element.
The gardener has learned that the spring is the best time to plant seeds as the Sun is getting stronger or the Fire Element is being introduced to complete the balance of all five elements. As we know from experience at growing plants, if all five elements are in balance the life of the plant grows strong and healthy.
Our life also relies on the balance of the five elements. In humans the life force is introduced at the time of conception and over the first 9 months the mother’s womb provides everything the foetus needs to develop. When the baby is born the five elements come into play as the baby takes its first breath.
So it is easy to see the Air Element coming into the body through the breath. The Earth Element comes in from the fruits of the Earth in the form of the food we eat.
The heat of the Sun provides the Fire Element and to a certain extent we also have an internal fire in the form of the Digestive Fire.
