Your Health and Your Self: Yang Metal (Geng) People



Every Self is entirely unique, not only for its own traits but also for its influence on person’s health. Ba Zi can help us learn more about our ruling meridian and to identify when imbalances are apparent and act on them accordingly. 

This can help stop issues becoming harmful, with the advice and lifestyle tips below.


This post in the series focused on the Geng Self.

The Large Intestine meridian influences Geng individuals.

The Large Intestine oversees the transportation of digestive wastes and works jointly with the Lings to control perspiration. When healthy and well-balanced, the Large Intestine aids organizational skills and clarity of thoughts. If imbalances have occurred in the Large Intestine meridian, there is distress, irritability, discourage and depression.

Energetic disturbances may involve holding onto the past, reluctance to let go, defensiveness, compulsion to clean and weeping.

As with every meridian, if there are problems with the Large Intestine Qi (energy), it can trigger intense emotions like sorry and sadness. A prolonged state of worry can cause blockages in the Lung Qi (energy) which in turn cause Qi stagnation. Physical symptoms of this are abdominal pains and constipation.



Health advice for Geng individuals:

•    If constipated; eat rhubarb

•    Introduce foods such as celery, coriander, fennel, sweet peppers and turnips into your diet.

•    Massage your bowels.

•    Drink ginger or tangerine tea to ease stomach discomfort.

•    Fresh ginger, onion, leeks, and garlic are great for maintaining colon health.

What does your Self reveal about you?   Your Self matters – it determines who You are!  To read a destiny, you have to know the self.  The Metal Elements (Geng) and (Xin) can be separated into ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ categories.  Xin is the ‘softer,’ but not necessarily ‘gentler’ Metal Element Self. Most Xin individuals are known for their excellent communication skills and insatiable curiosity.  These charming and talkative people always have something to say – they prefer to be both ‘seen’ and ‘heard’ at the same time! Especially if they are right.  Xin is a polished metal and Xin people want to get noticed. The external world is where they shine and thrive, where they are always in reach of knowledge and updated on current events – often by using their wit and humor to get the information they need. Due to these qualities, Xin people can quickly adapt to situations to suit their personal interests.  Color:  Soft Grey Organ/Meridian
