What are the 5 Elements?

For thousands of years Chinese scientists studied patterns of nature. They came to understand that life moves in a Circle. They noted phases within the circle and called these the 5 Elements. Each Element represents a different energetic pattern and corresponds to the different qualities of each element. The more we learn about each of the 5 Elements and how they exist within us, the more we can come to know ourselves and aligns with our true nature.
