Dear Cecil,
I have been enjoying the information made available through you over the last two years. Your site contains an outstanding resource of information.
While checking out on a comparison report for myself and my significant "other half", I realized that there were some clashes in our birth elements. That is, I am a strong Earth and he is a weak Water. The report mentioned that if he surrounds himself with lots of metal, the relationship can be improved. What does that mean? Can you suggest some cures (ie. objects or things we can hang in our home, bedroom, or jewelry items to wear? I would appreciate your answer very much.
Looking forward to my next visit to your site.
Mary

Water. The report mentioned

If you have used the binding element report, the suggested cure is metal.
What this means is that where both parties are i.e. especially your bedroom or the living room, you can make more use of `metal' element to bind both parties closer.
If we evaluate why the binding element `metal' is useful, we can look at it this way:
1. Metal helps your husband's weak water to grow.
2. Metal, has no ill effects on your Strong Earth element. Metal element is neutral to your strong earth element and it does not make it worse off.
For example, when planning the interior decor of your bedroom, you can choose while coloured walls or any colours related to white or `gold'.
Other binding elements that help both of you `growth' a healthy relationship is having a white or `gold' can be colours like pinewood (this sort of colours).
Bed sheet can be white or gold (furniture more to the `yellowish' or light wood colours rather than brown.
In the living room, or other rooms, where both frequent, white or `gold' are colours that you can consider.
You do not need to buying everything white or gold. But, in certain situations such as when deciding on a new furniture, you can then consider these two colours.
While, under Pillars of Destiny, this is different in that as your husband is a weak water person. Thus, it would be advisable for him to on a personal basis also to have metal e.g. best colours are white shirts or `gold' (yellowish) shirts.
Alternatively, he can improve his weak water with e.g. blue or black e.g. black pants or even blue clothes.
This is less `impact' as it is the same element as his water. The more productive element that helps water is metal.
To understand better, you can refer to the http://www.geomancy.net/fs/5element.htm
In your situation, and depending on the season of strength, your best colours is green or brown. This is where, it helps to neutralise the strong earth.
On a personal basis, if you are on your own, or for the person, green or brown is the best colour.
The situtation to note is under the 10 year Luck Pillar, you can check the season influencing your life for a specific period.
If the element says that it is a wood season, then, it is a good period because, your strong earth has already been neutralised. In such a situation, you do not need to surround yourself (personally) with green or wood.
Hopes the above helps.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
