Each of The 8 Elements is associated with biological systems and parts of the body, vital organs and regulating glands, and the various related health conditions or dis-eases.
Examples of this are hearing loss for Water elements, back pain for Mountain Earth and thyroid dysfunction for Hard Wood. (See info graph below for more.)
Besides the health issues associated with your personal feng shui element, your health is also heavily influenced by the health issues of the personal element in your personal health direction.
For example: Mountain Earth's health direction is the NW, the House of Hard Metal. This means, that among other things, this energy contributes to the likelihood of having headaches and suffering from debilitating migraines.
In addition to the emotional roots of "dis-ease", the annual and monthly energies can affect your health, as well.
The following is a list of 6 ways your health is being affected by these unseen energies.
1) Your Personal Element
When you discover the health aspects of your personal element, you will know how to take really good care of yourself.
For example: Mother Earth elements may choose not to eat certain food groups like gluten or conventional dairy and take digestive enzymes and probiotics to avoid tummy troubles.
See info graph below.
2) Your Personal Health Direction
In your personal element's Feng Shui Guide you can discover your personal health direction. The health aspects of the personal element associated with that direction may impact your health.
Also, each personal element has a health buddy. This means that your personal element's house is the health direction for the element associated with your personal health direction.
For example Water (North) is the health direction for Hard Wood and Hard Wood (East) is the health direction for Water. The other health partners are: Soft Wood & Fire, Mother Earth & Soft Metal and Mountain Earth & Hard Metal.

3) Your Male or Female Sex
Northwest is the House of Men and Southwest is the House of Women. Each year, we look to see what annual energy is visiting those sectors and determine what the effect of the resulting energy combination will be on men and women that year.
For example: In 2021, Men's health will be influenced by Soft Metal energy and Women's health will be affected by Hard Wood energy.

4) Your Age & Birth Order
Because each of The 8 Elements™ is associated with a direction, which is also related to a member of the family, your current age and birth order will provide some more quality information about what the year ahead holds for your health journey.
For example: In 2021, with the Yellow Earth visiting the Southeast, eldest daughters may really struggle to enjoy good health. And middle aged men may begin to have digestive issues.

5) Your House Guest
The personal element visiting your house has the potential to affect your health. This means you may begin to develop the health issues associated with that personal element. Or, in many cases it's the health issue related to the energy combination of your personal element and theirs that has the greater impact.
For example: Soft Wood's number is 4 and their house in the Southeast is being visited by the Yellow 5 this year. This 4/5 energy combination brings the potential for skin rashes and diseases, even cancer.
6) Your Host's House
Each year, your personal element's number visit's one of The 8 Element™'s houses. Being in that other personal element's energy all year can cause you to begin to take on their element's health issues.
For example: Fire is visiting the Northeast sector, the House of Mountain this year. Since Mountain Earth is associated with the peripheral nervous and skeletal system, it would be wise for Fire elements to get chiropractic adjustments this year to support the health of their spine.
Knowing how the health aspects of the personal elements may affect you is the quality information you need to restore your health and stay well. It's not enough to know just your own personal element's potential health weaknesses.
