Jansky Metal
Yang Metal Gen is like a sword. The value of people of this sign manifests itself in difficult times. They can be trusted and are able to work persistently and methodically to solve problems. They are true leaders and fighters, always wanting to be the best. When they see a goal in front of them, they are unstoppable.
Sometimes Geng people become so immersed in their activities that they cannot relax even in moments of rest. It happens that under the influence of anger or emotions, their mind becomes clouded. But even in such moments, they strive to maintain the image of strong and invulnerable individuals.
They are straightforward and do not know how to pretend. Cunning is unnatural to them, their weapons are courage and directness. They are confident in themselves and their abilities, but failures can shake their self-esteem. The consequence of this can be a bad character and difficulties in communication.
Combining with the yang earthly branches, Geng forms the pillars of Geng Zi, Geng Yin, Geng Chen, Geng Wu, Geng Shen and Geng Xu.
Geng Zi, Yang Metal on the Rat
Depending on the set of elements in the map, this pillar can have either the image of a bell - ringing Metal, or the image of a sword, the blade of which is buried in the snow. In any case, the identity of a Geng Zi person is often ambiguous. They can be both arrogant and vulnerable. Both stubborn, powerful, self-willed dictators and generous, altruistic, sympathetic idealists.
These people are usually talented, ambitious, determined and have leadership abilities. They have intuition, charm and attractiveness. They are able to give the right advice and maintain optimism. They benefit from active self-expression—then they worry less and ultimately achieve more. If they lack discipline, motivation and clear goals, then they become bored and end up dissatisfied with themselves and the results. Their potential is fully revealed in difficult, crisis situations: they are fearless and capable of taking the initiative into their own hands. Geng Zi are demanding, efficient and expect a lot from themselves and others. They can easily manipulate others without revealing their feelings, and can be harsh. But despite their confidence and independence, it is difficult for them to succeed alone. Fortunately, they usually have a lot of helpful people around them.
Geng Yin, Yang Metal on the Tiger
This pillar is a conflicting combination of Metal and Wood, and its image is a spear, a hammer, an ax. Geng Yin people are characterized by intelligence, kindness, truthfulness and often excessive talkativeness. They are hardworking, principled, ready to take risks and challenges, and believe in themselves. They are distinguished by good coordination of movements, physical activity and a strong body. Combined with determination, this often develops a sporting character and the will to win. They are easy-going, value appearance and beauty.
Geng Yin are visionary and know how to inspire others. At the same time, they like the path to success much more than success itself. They value their freedom very much, although they understand that loyalty and reliability are important for strong relationships. They are usually calm and friendly, they may seem somewhat naive, but sometimes they can be quick-tempered. They value material things and everything that money can buy. They are talented, inquisitive, strive for knowledge and do not shy away from challenges. It often seems to others that they are insensitive, but this impression is deceptive: Geng Yin people listen to their emotions and intuition, worry and are jealous, sometimes even excessively.
Geng Chen , Yang Metal on the Dragon
Geng Chen people are tough leaders, stubborn and resilient. The image of the pillar is a military shield. They are very smart, stern and taciturn. Hardworking, stubborn, believe in themselves. They often have a powerful physique and prefer actions to words. Optimism and pride always lead them forward. Being natural leaders, they nevertheless understand the importance of teamwork. They like to be among people, they know how to inspire and motivate: next to them, the most ordinary individuals begin to feel special and strive to express themselves to the fullest. At the same time, Geng Chen can be dominant and aggressive, while maintaining flexibility, tolerance and a willingness to protect others. Balanced, straightforward and honest in expressing feelings and emotions, they believe in the power of money and their value system sometimes suffers from this.
Despite all the qualities of a warrior, the Geng Chen person can remain somewhat naive in many matters of life. Often these people have a talent for art, are interested in religion, philosophy, and become wise over the years. If they receive a good education, they expand their horizons and gain inner self-confidence. In addition, they often feel lonely and need a home—a place where they will feel calm and safe. Sometimes Geng Chen becomes sensitive, altruistic and touchy. It is impossible to predict whether he will forgive the offender or remember the offense for a long time. However, generosity and attention to loved ones are also part of their nature.
Geng Wu, Yang Metal on Horse
The image of this pillar is Metal, forged and tempered by Fire—for example, a sword that has gone through a forge and a crucible. Behind such elements lies strong character, energy and leadership qualities. Pillar people are naturally talented and have broad interests. They are strong, resilient, and able to cope with many challenges. They love freedom and are ready to go into battle. Justice is important to them; they honor their internal code of rules and honor. They do not abandon their comrades in trouble, they always remember the good, although they themselves rarely ask for help, because... We are sure that this is a sign of weakness. They are more loners than team players. Being people of action, Geng Wu may dislike those who tend to slow down and think before moving forward. They themselves usually act without warning and are aggressive and swift. Moreover, not every result of such thoughtless haste satisfies Geng Wu themselves. Sometimes they imagine their future success so vividly that they forget about the present moment and current needs.
Geng Wu are logical, executive and responsible. Only their own perfectionism can slow them down. They are straightforward and usually strive to dominate, although idealism and a sensual nature are often hidden under external aggressiveness. They are open towards loved ones, sociable, enjoy recognition, and can be artistic, creative and sharp-tongued. It happens that their generosity and willingness to help leads to problems with money.
Geng Shen , Yang Metal on Monkey
The image of this pillar is an ore or an ingot of metal—raw, but valuable. Geng Shen people are noble, good-natured, artistic, generous, talented and, like raw materials, can take any form if properly processed. Their principles and character are formed throughout life.
Geng Shen are easy-going, active and always ready to learn new things. They are always attentive to their appearance and strive to look perfect. They understand people well and are able to sympathize. They strive to help, but can be too straightforward. They have a great sense of humor, many different talents, energy and creativity. At the same time, they remain strong-willed, stubborn and have difficulty changing their minds. They usually take other people's positions into account, but do not like it when others try to influence their plans. They are drawn to extreme sports. They appreciate and understand beauty and art. They are generous, which often leads to financial problems. Sometimes they themselves get tired of their excessive enthusiasm. If they manage to gain emotional stability, they will only become more productive. For Geng Shen, it is important to remember that if you overthink everything, you may miss opportunities. Plus, they need to avoid too materialistic views on life and the desire to control everything.
Geng Xu, Yang Metal on a Dog

They are distinguished by physical strength and unbending character. They are confident in themselves, in their goal and in their ability to achieve it. If they get bored, they set a new task and are ready for exploits to achieve it. Only boredom can drive them into depression. In a “peaceful” state of mind, Geng Xu are straightforward, honest and friendly. Always ready to give advice and support the weaker. They can show kindness, sacrifice and even touchiness. Sometimes they feel lonely. Sometimes they show indecisiveness in personal relationships. For them, appearance is very important - their own and those around them. Materialists to the core, they are usually skeptical about all spiritual parts of life, including their intuition. However, sometimes circumstances teach them to understand that not all strength is like a sword. And if a person Geng Xu wants to understand more subtle matters, he will plunge into struggle and overcoming within himself. For the sake of enlightenment, he is able to lead an ascetic lifestyle, live in solitude, train hard, etc.
Despite their outward harshness, the people of Geng Xu are able to see the beauty of art and nature. Sometimes it happens that they are overly keen on luxury, while at the same time fearing to be left without money. Materialism is combined in them with an internal feeling of insecurity and selfishness. It happens that they are actively involved in charity work.
