Excerpt from the original text of "The Source of the Four Sacred Hearts":
The principle of the five elements is that there is life and there is restraint. Wood generates fire, fire generates earth, earth generates metal, metal generates water, and water generates wood. Wood defeats earth, earth defeats water, water defeats fire, fire defeats metal, and metal defeats wood. They are mutually reinforcing and interfering, and they are all based on Qi rather than quality. If the quality becomes Qi, there will be no generation and resistance. The position covering heaven and earth is cold in the north and hot in the south, warm in the east and cool in the west. When the sun rises in the east, the warm air becomes spring; when it rises in the south, the hot air becomes summer; when the yin falls in the west, the cool air becomes autumn; when it falls in the north, the cold air becomes winter.
The warmth of spring generates the heat of summer, the heat of summer generates the coolness of autumn, the coolness of autumn generates the cold of winter, and the coldness of winter generates the warmth of spring. Earth is the mother of the four images, and actually gives birth to the four images. It is said that fire gives birth to earth, and it is placed in the palace after the fire order in the sixth month. In the sixth month, moisture is abundant, and moisture is the earth. In fact, the combination of water and fire creates moisture. In June, fire is above the earth and water is below the earth. Cold and heat are forcing each other, causing moisture to move. Dampness is the air in water and fire. Earth is located in the southwest, where it is hot in the south and cool in the west, so it is said that fire generates earth, and earth generates metal.
Those who are in conflict with each other will control their excesses. If the nature of wood is divergent, if it is restrained by gold qi, the wood will not disperse; if the nature of fire is inflammatory, if it is suppressed by water vapor, the fire will not be inflammatory; if the nature of earth is damp, if it is loosened by wood qi, the earth will not be damp; if the nature of metal is convergent, If it is warmed with fire energy, the metal will not be absorbed; if water is used to reduce moisture, if earth energy is used to penetrate it, the water will not be moistened. They are all the wonders of qi transforming into nature.
