The Wisdom of the Metal Element 金 & lessons for the season of Autumn.
Our Five Elements journey continues…
🌱 From the awakening and growth of Wood in Spring,
☀️ through the expansive warm energy of Fire in Summer,
🌾 the nourishment and grounding of Earth in Late Summer
We arrive at Metal, the element ⚔️ associated with Autumn 🍂
In the ancient Chinese philosophy of the Five Phases (Wu Xing 五行), nature is never static.
Each season brings its own qualities, rhythms and lessons.
Metal invites us to turn inward.
To reflect on what has been, recognise what is precious and find the courage to let go of what no longer serves.
Associated with the Lung and Large Intestine, Metal is about our capacity to receive and release.
Its emotional landscape includes grief and loss ~ in all its forms.
Its gifts or virtues are clarity, integrity, discernment and healthy boundaries.
Autumn is the season to refine. A time to let go.
Autumn AcuYoga Immersion with Susan NiD | Yoga & Pilates and Lucia O'Byrne takes place Sat 7 Nov.
We’ll dig deep into Metal energy through Yin Yoga, acupuncture, breathwork and reflection.
