How the Wood element can show up in everyday life
In Chinese tradition Wood stands for growth, new beginnings and spring. People with a lot of Wood in their chart often want to unfold, build something new and keep developing.
In everyday life Wood can help you tackle plans boldly and help others grow. Out of balance, Wood can show up as impatience or anger. Movement, nature and room to unfold are often good for Wood.
