What does your Self reveal about you?   Your Self matters – it determines who You are!  Think about tall tall trees... Jia Wood is usually symbolized by a tall tree.

If they promise you something – they’ll move Heaven and Earth to see that the promise is kept!  Ji people are resourceful and highly organized, checking things off their agenda at a steady pace that they set.
