Geng and Xin people
(Metal Element)
altheachineseastrology.com
Geng Metal Self, the Protector In Chinese astrology, Geng Metal is represented with by a sword. The qualities Geng principle stands for are: sharpness, resilience, rigidness, usefulness and executive abilities. Accordingly, Geng individuals are strong, just and resilient people. They are also creatures who need stress, pressure and fight in their life, because these are the only ways for them to grow and succeed (the logic behind this is that a sword must be sharpened, to fulfil its function). Since sword is a tool with many purposes, it is used for defense, attack, providing food, etc. Accordingly, Geng people do differ mutually, and while some of them act in protective, chivalrous and just ways, the others travel through life fighting and leaving a trace inwrought with toughness and aggression Although Geng individuals often appear as cold, reserved, stiff and/or distant, they can be very emotional, especially if there is a lot of Metal and Water Element in their chart. The thing about them is that they are simply not the people who would open up easily or who would start crying because of the hardships they’re facing. It is more likely that they will keep up the untouchable façade, while their dissatisfaction and/or pain will pour out in the form of complaints and critique. In addition, Geng people are proud individuals who care very much about their integrity and who are particularly sensitive about their image and reputation.

They are also known for their strong judgements, hence when they believe they are right, they can debate really hard in order to prove their point. Since they are typically very far from adaptable or flexible individuals, it may be really hard for them to bend, adjust or change When it comes to work, Geng people are pro-execution oriented (in Chinese astrology, Geng represents primarily a sword sharpened for war) and ready to lead – or follow the orders. They are people who could withstand a great pressure and who are often attracted to careers in law, police, military, security, government or politics. They also make great executives and CEO, who would stand behind their decisions. Since they are also resilient, strong-willed and determined creatures, who like winning, they are good candidates for professional sports and other sport related industries (personal trainers., etc.).
Because winning is very important to their self-esteem, Yang Metal people are sometimes able to fight over insignificant matters. Since they may be easily carried away by what they perceive as unfair or unjust, they could waste their energy and time on fighting imaginary battles. However, behind their impulsive and rush behavior lays the instinctive need to be alert and stay sharpened - just for case of some prospective war. Due to their endurance and strong fighting spirit, Geng people might tolerate everything in life with the same spirit. Amongst all Selves, they are most probably the toughest ones and the least afraid of difficulties and hardship the life may bring. Regarding their health, it’s generally strong, as they are resilient people. However, they incline towards having issues with large intestine, respiratory tract, bones, skin and immunity.

Xin Metal Self, the Thinker Xin Metal is represented with fine jewelry and shiny decorative metal objects. As a principle, Xin also stands in Chinese astrology for cultivation, beauty, refinement and the power of attraction. Since this Metal is refined, Xin individuals are often described as cultured, attractive, stylish and elegant. They are also widely recognizable for their strong intellectual capabilities, keen perception, clear thinking and bright ideas. Those who know them well are also aware that Xin people’s character is complex and that they are not easy to read or define. In addition, they are skeptics and social rebels known for their unconventional behavior and out of box thinking. They are also competitive beings, who can’t stand still and who always want to get to another level and improve themselves and everything and everyone around. Xin individuals are known for being opiniated, fighting strongly for what they believe is truth and for showing little respect for authorities (unless authorities agree with their cause). They are thinkers with restless mind and numerous interests, prone towards initiating harsh debates and behaving in smart-ass, cynical and condescending manners. On the other hand, Xin people are communication wizards and social beings, which is why they typically have many friends and acquaintances.

They are also very talented creatures, who are not only smart, expressive and knowledgeable individuals, but also interesting, witty and entertaining people - who enjoy in drawing attention. Being contradictory personalities, they might equally enjoy in reading Kafka and listening to classical music, as in hanging out on social networks and watching favorite shows (they want to keep up). Although they are self-sufficient individuals, Xin people do care for others – even more than they would ever admit. They are loving and loyal partners, but they are also complex, complicated, changeable and moody beings, who like to be at center of attention and who like to be right and have control. Although they are sensitive towards partners’ problems, they tend to overthink everything, as they are prone towards lecturing and criticizing. Being in relationship with them is not so easy, because they are partners who don’t want only love and intimacy, but who also desire intellectual exchange with partner. Hence, they often look for a partner who like to socialize and would be ready to debate with them. When it comes to work, Yin Metal people are very social and particularly good at handling different kinds of people and situations. Being creative and resourceful individuals, known also for their innovative spirit, strategic abilities and out of box thinking, Xin individuals are able to come up with elegant solutions.
They are talented presenters and marketers, who also stand out when it comes to organizing evets, networking and managing social networks. Since they are clever, fast with words and witty, they can shine in journalism and every industry related to media, writing, self-expressing, branding and entertaining. Regarding their health, they are prone towards lung and respiratory issues, allergies, skin and immunity problems.
