Can someone explain to me how is it that someone with a strong metal element would need to use fire as a booster when I read that it should be earth?

Since you are a strong yang Water, you don't want to be too overly strong otherwise, you will not be able to control yourself.

Thus, you should increase yourself with your favourable elements as follows.

Favourable Elements Most Favourable Element Colour: green/brown Favourable Element Colour: yellow

Unfavourable Elements Most Unfavourable Element Colour: white/gold Most Unfavourable Element Colour: blue/black/gray

This is a very important concept for you to improve your luck.

A strong Metal means that you are strong due to too much Earth and Metal. Therefore in general Earth and Metal are considered unfavourable.

Water is the best solution to help Strong Metal given that is exhaust the excess Metal. Fire is also good because Fire destroy Metal. However, Fire is more a double edged sword as it also strengthen the Earth. Therefore, I mentioned that Water is most effective. Wood is simply wealth to Strong Metal. Therefore, in general Water, Wood, Fire are generally good.

However, ultimately the percentage of the element is what you need to consider to know exactly what elements you need more or which you need less. For example if you have 40% Fire, then it means you already have quite a lot of fire, so more fire may not be good.

I am not sure what this has to do with the above question. But again as a Strong Water, wood and earth is favourable, while metal and water is unfavourable.

Again, the exact percentage should also be considered in order to know exactly which element you need more.

Hope that helps.
