Seasonal Impact on Element Strength

[mksay]

I gathered from the 4-Pillar report that elements have different strength in different seasons.
Q1. As for a Strong Fire person, does it mean that Lunar months 1-6 (Spring & Summer) will be less auspicious compared to Lunar months 7-12 (Autumn & Winter), as Fire is strong in Spring/Summer and weak in Autumn/Winter?
Does that also hold true for people born and live in tropical countries?
Q2. As there are 5 elements but only 4 seasons:
Fire is strongest in Summer,
Wood is strongest in Spring,
Earth is strongest in Autumn, and
Water is strongest in Winter (right? I came up with this with only common sense)
What happen to Metal then? Does Metal dominate any season?
Thanks and regards,
Rose

Let's put in easily, each month has an element. So so long as the element in
the month is one of your favourable element in your case, anything which is
Water or Earth should be good for you.

You see, what the Ba Zi birth chart considers is the seasonal influences
which you are born in to deduce your elements. The seaons when it comes in,
is often extended throughout the world. Only difference is there is a level
of shift in how strong the effects are. Ba Zi, in itself has many
limitations to start with. It is difficult to take into account many aspect,
but the key purpose of the chart is to see what kind of influence you are
born with. Or in another what most Chinese believe is that you are born with
a certain given fate. And therefore, Ba Zi is supposed to reveal that
secrets to you so that you can better take advantage of it.

Very good reasoning. And well, actually if you look at Feng Shui a lot comes
from reasoning.
Well what you got is the Earth Wrong, It should be Metal. Actually there are
only 4 seasons right? So Each element is represent by the 4 seasons except
for earth. Earth is found in every season. But only dominate in the 3rd
month of each season. Where all the previously strong element becomes weak
as it awaits the birth of the other season.
