Behind any event there is a combination of elements which plays a major part in its cause.
We examined the element situation of the day when the Titanic sank, that time bringing more than a thousand people down with it.
The year 1912 in itself was overloaded with water. A Yang Water / Rat combination is practically all water.

The last couple of years were not very comfortable for people born as a weak fire element or needing fire to balance their main element. The reason for this is that since 2008 we had a very small amount of fire element around, due to a specific combination of elements.
From next year, 2013, things are going to get better for all those who are craving warmth and spirit. First there will be a Yin Water / Snake combination where the Snake represents the beginning of the summer season and introduces a fair amount of Yang Fire.

If you follow Apple and the development of Apple products closely you have probably heard of Jony Ive, a genius designer, a very good friend of the late Steve Jobs, who’s work is behind all recent hardwares of Apple, including iPhones and MacBooks.
Jony Ive is very much obsessed with using aluminium in all Apple’s products. In the begining it was not so easy to implement, and they had to overcome a lot of technical issues before it became possible to build products such as iPhones and MacBooks which have an unibody alumium frame which is entirely built from one piece of aluminium.

Many are familiar with the 5 element cycles, but not everyone knows about the larger cycles which influence our lives on a much bigger scale.
Each 10 year period is ruled by one of 10 elements.
For example, the current period from 2004 to the end of 2013 is ruled by Yang Earth, and the following period from 2014 to the end of 2023 will be ruled by Yin Earth. This complete period of 20 years will be ruled by the Earth element. What does this mean for us? Continue reading →
A few days ago we wrote a post about the cooperation between John Lennon and Paul McCartney where we examined what caused such amazing chemistry between them. Very soon after we had lots of requests to explain why John Lennon died and whether there was something specific going on that day from the element point of view.

UPDATE: We also examined the reason for Lennon’s death, fascinating stuff indeed.
The Beatles are by far the most famous and most successful band in the history of music. The four of them managed to create an unique chemistry producing music which took the world by storm.
We probably all agree the most important ingredient of the band was the fantastic creativity match of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, to whom the band owes probably over 90% of all hits.
We decided to have a deeper look into their elements to find out what triggered such an inspired cooperation.

After more than a year of battling, over 2 billion dollars raised and spent, 3 TV debates, endless polemics about all kinds of issues and the unavoidable internet memes including horses, bayonets and battleships, we are almost done.
One more week and we will find out whether Obama will keep his hot seat or whether it will be taken by Romney.
So, let’s see what we can predict from the element point of view, how their luck is developing during this critical period.

Probably you all know that a few days ago we entered Dog month producing a considerable clash with the current Dragon year. This period is particulary hard for Dog and Dragon people and we are noticing the effect and reality of it in the news.
Last week The Economist published a list of the 1.000 wealthiest people in China in accordance to their Chinese Zodiacs. Rabbits came first and the second was the Snake.
We have our own database of most famous people, mostly in the western world, over 1.600 of them, so we decided to have a look as well.
As probably most of you know, this year is the year of the Water Dragon which generally has been quite challenging for many. The Dragon is a powerful animal and usually causes turbulence around with everyone getting scratched or burned by its tail or flame in one way or another.
