The Ten Selves – Gui (Water) People






What impression does your Self give?




Water holds many untold secrets… 

We began our ‘Ten Selves’ posts with the first Heavenly Stem of the Chinese Four Pillars (Jia Wood), and we will conclude this section with the subtle Gui people – one of whom is Anthony Bourdain!

Emotion, imagination and deep wisdom drive Gui people. Like every Water Element, they can represent an impression of a calm person. However, complex personality shifts beneath the waves, charged by deep and changeable emotions.

They are symbolized as mist or rain – their nature is unquestionably nourishing as it falls. 
Gui people are rarely indifferent, but they might give off an air of distance or come across as being introverted. 

Otherwise, they are friendly and can easily attach to others due to their compassionate nature. People feel that they can confide in them because they are good listeners as well as being very protective and supportive in times of need.

The Ten Selves – Xin (Metal) People

What does your Self reveal about you?   Your Self matters – it determines who You are!  To read a destiny, you have to know the self.  The Metal Elements (Geng) and (Xin) can be separated into ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ categories.  Xin is the ‘softer,’ but not necessarily ‘gentler’ Metal Element Self. Most Xin individuals are known for their excellent communication skills and insatiable curiosity.  These charming and talkative people always have something to say – they prefer to be both ‘seen’ and ‘heard’ at the same time! Especially if they are right.  Xin is a polished metal and Xin people want to get noticed. The external world is where they shine and thrive, where they are always in reach of knowledge and updated on current events – often by using their wit and humor to get the information they need. Due to these qualities, Xin people can quickly adapt to situations to suit their personal interests.  Color:  Soft Grey Organ/Meridian
