Elemental profile & Pa-Kua direction contradiction

[vmar]

According to four pillars I am "strong metal" (so I must avoid metal and earth). According to my year of birth my KUA is "5" so my favorable direction is W, SW, NW, NE. So North-West is CHIEN which is SRTONG METAL,West is TUI and its also METAL and according to my elemental profile it's not good for me. What should I do?

Dear Vadym,
1. The more accurate analysis is the use of Pillars of Destiny as it analyses your Year, Month, Day and Time of birth.
In the more advanced analysis, Year, Month, Day, Time, House of Conception and House of Birth are taken into consideration.
2. Thus, if the proper analysis was done and as you are deduced to be a `strong metal', you can use more advanced methods such as looking at each direction based on the element.
3. For example, North is Water. South is Fire element.
Thus for this two sectors:
4. Since water exhausts your STRONG metal thus create a balance. This sector is considered good for you.
5. Fire is also good sector as fire destroys strong metal to reduce it and create balance.
6. If you notice, KUA generally is based only on the YEAR of birth thus less accurate method.
7. Thus the main important point to remember is that although we are both dealing with e.g. the Lowest Commond Denominator, comparing your `strong metal' to KUA 5 is like trying to compare a basket of fruits with just a single apple. This is not a basis of proper comparison. In the academic world, this hypothesis or derivative is flawed.
