I have a question about the course. If East is the place of the Dragon, and must to be higher than West, the Tiger... why in the topic 10.3 Elevation or depression one side of the terrain says: East=elevation=Progress will be slow.
East=Depression= Fast progress...
if the natural order is the opposite? I am some confuse about it...
Thank you for the answer. :)

Dear Alejandra,
Thank you for your question.
It has to do with the concept of wealth collection.
In general, an elevated land (on one side) is not as favourable as a depression. In many instances, the word elevation / or depression may be exaggerated. In many cases, they are gentle to the eye. Only on closer evaluation, does one notice the elevation or depression.
A depression is preferred over an elevation. Under Shapes and Forms, a depression would suggest `wealth' retention. This is not the same as a physical building that is taller than the other. A building can be taller or lower than another building but, in such situations, there is no mention of how it sits on a land i.e. lower or higher than it's neighbour's land.
When looking at the landscape, looking at a tree is like merely looking at it's trunk and branches. But under 10.3 we are looking at the interaction of the roots with the ground.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
