Does the Earth element dominate the Water element?
From the perspective of the Five Elements, Earth does control Water, but it cannot be completely concluded that an Earth-born person will necessarily dominate a Water-born person. Destiny cannot be simply generalized; it needs to be judged based on specific eight characters (Ba Zi).Destiny theory, also known as the theory of interpreting fate, originates from the I Ching (Book of Changes). It is commonly referred to as divination. Divination is the most comprehensive reflection of Chinese folk customs and social mentality. Chinese people have a strong desire for official positions, and "if you study well, you become an official" has always been the belief of scholars. Common people often have no way to attain official positions, but their dreams of success continue through generations, remaining vivid and unforgettable. Having an official position means nobility, and this strong "official-centric" desire is reflected in destiny as the highest good fortune.
What happens when a Roadside Earth birth meets water?
The Roadside Earth birth represents vast land and endless fields, where crops rely on it for growth and plants flourish. Therefore, this type of birth greatly favors water, which is used for irrigation and nourishment.① Spring Water: A Roadside Earth born on Geng Wu meets Jia Shen Spring Water, and a Roadside Earth born on Xin Wei meets Yi You Spring Water, which is called "Lü", if there are no other conflicting elements in the birth chart, it indicates that the person will achieve high status early in life.
② Heavenly River Water: Roadside Earth favors Heavenly River Water, as it is used for rain and irrigation of the fields. Therefore, a Roadside Earth born on Geng Wu favors Ding Wei Heavenly River Water, and a Roadside Earth born on Xin Wei favors Bing Wu Heavenly River Water. This combination appearing in the birth chart of a Roadside Earth person forms a favorable pattern of official and wealth harmony.
③ Stream Water: A Roadside Earth born on Geng Wu meets Ding Chou Stream Water, which is considered a favorable union of noble position and wealth; while a Roadside Earth born on Xin Wei meets Bing Zi Stream Water, which is considered "Bing Xing Transformation into Water," also auspicious.
④ Large Stream Water: When encountering Yi Mao Large Stream Water, since there is thunder within it, and Yi Mao also combines with Geng Wu Roadside Earth into Metal, it results in the maturation of crops, so it is also auspicious.
⑤ Long Flowing Water and Sea Water: Long Flowing Water (Ren Chen, Gui Si) and Sea Water (Ren Xu, Gui Hai) do not have the function of irrigation, so they are generally avoided by those born with Roadside Earth. If encountered in other parts of the birth chart, it indicates misfortune and even early death.
