Your Personal Element is YIN WOOD, represented by a small plant, a bush, branches or a flower. Your world is one of vegetation and vitality, but in a yin version, meaning with a subtle touch. 

Those born under this element are said to have a flexible and observant attitude towards life. Instead of trying to impose themselves in a more obvious manner, they often prefer to BE SUBTEL. Just like any plant or flower, most probably, you know how to adapt to the winds of change with a certain elegance (and cunningness, let’s be honest…) and without ever losing your identity or compromising your goals and intentions. 

A good relationship with those who surround you is therefore one of your strong suits. Your charm is a powerful weapon that you’ve learned to master. You also know how to influence others, but you chose to do this in the least obvious way to a level in which your targets seldom understand what is really happening.

Your network is another of your advantages and is much connected to your way of life and your path to success. 

Whenever possible, you’ll chose diplomacy over war. On the other hand, there is an extremely sophisticated side to your personality, one that is most probably linked to a powerfully rich intellect. 

Certain masters in the Chinese tradition also mention a certain attraction to the public life and need to be admired and be the center of attraction. To prove this theory one needs only to remember some of the celebrities born under YIN WOOD: Beyoncé, Rihanna, Amy Winehouse, Princess Diana, Oprah Winfrey, and former USA President, Bill Clinton.

Please note that your PERSONAL ELEMENT is not meant to explain your whole personality since there are other components related to the moment of your birth that will influence you as well. The PERSONAL ELEMENT should therefore be seen as the basis, the raw material that will be shaped by a group of forcers, namely the PROFILES, which reflect the cosmic conditions of your birth.

THE OFFICER is your Natural Profile. 

Discipline is a keyword in this profile of yours. 

Life is made up of things we like to do, others we do for pleasure, and others still that we don’t like, but end up doing because “they simply have to be done “... You accept this facet of life with some ease and tend to be a disciplined person.

On the other hand, you tend to be flexible towards the existence of authority and hierarchies in human societies and the importance of social status. Actually, THE OFFICER is sometimes nicknamed ‘The Gentleperson’ because of their taste for correctness. We would go as far as to say that this Natural Profile introduces a note of nobility to your character.

You tend to intrinsically respect society’s norms and values, particularly those of your time and social circle.

You know how to comply because you believe this makes sense so long as you respect and recognize the legitimacy of those giving out orders. 

However, do note that this is just a first step on your path to empowerment. In this context, most likely, you will achieve social status, authority, and power throughout your life.

THE MANAGER is a Dominant Profile of your personality.

There is a pragmatic and realistic, in other words, a “down to earth” side to your personality that helps you to make things “happen”. The projects and plans you are involved in often come to fruition and become a reality.

For that to happen, you have a great need to keep everything under control.

On the other hand, you believe that the execution, within the deadlines, of what is planned is far more relevant than absolute perfection.

Another typical feature of THE MANAGER is their firm determination. Otherwise, it would not be possible to achieve the goals. Obstacles and problems almost always arise when one goes from idea to practice. Therefore, it is necessary to know how to react to these unforeseen events. The philosophy is: if a problem arises, one must solve it straight away!

Consequently, it is not surprising that your presence is quite desired in teams, both in public departments and, most importantly, in the business sector.

This Profile of yours might have a natural affinity with money and material possessions, though not necessarily so. In part, this has to do with your goal-oriented attitude, which helps a lot and, sooner or later, will probably translate into financial success.

Finally, one needs to remember that money and goods often appear in people’s lives as a result of different and almost fortuitous circumstances and not necessarily as a result of personal effort. This can be related to the presence of THE MANAGER Profile.

Celebrities with this Profile include Kim Kardashian, Tiger Woods, Britney Spears, Richard Branson, and Jacqueline K. Onassis.

NOTE

If your Natural Profile is also THE MANAGER, then these predispositions will be strongly accentuated. But the beneficial side of your Profile only becomes more evident when there is, as your Natural Profile or among your Dominant Profiles, one of the following: THE FRIEND, THE ANALYSER, or THE PHILOSOPHER.

THE OFFICER is a Dominant Profile of your personality.

In symbolic terms, the energy of this Profile has a lot to do with social status and respectability.

You tend to take everything that has to do with authority, law, and ethical codes very seriously, including the cultural values ​​you were brought up to or adhered to. You intuitively grasp the importance and power of organization, order, and hierarchies. Yet you know how to manage and take advantage of them.

In other words, you probably are the type of person who knows how to obey without jeopardizing their own identity and self-esteem while conquering and building their own power and authority.

The natural consequence of this behavioral context is the probability that you will end up achieving considerable status, namely occupying important positions in government structures or the business world, especially in the case of the large corporations that provide a unique opportunity to climb the lather properly. Socially, you’ll probably be a well-respected person by your peers. 

However, you must bear in mind that other forces in your personality can make it difficult to realize the full potential of this Profile.

Former Presidents of the United States John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush, as well as Joe Biden and the former Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, Angela Merkel, were all born with THE OFFICER as a dominant profile.

And yet, this Profile does not appear highlighted only in politicians. These are the cases, for example, of Angelina Jolie, David Beckham, Steffi Graf, and Ayrton Senna, in which THE OFFICER confers ambition and a lot of personal discipline.

And let’s not forget the case of Arnold Schwarzenegger, former governor of California, in the United States. He started as a successful bodybuilder and movie actor, then turned to politics with equal success.

NOTE

If your Natural Profile is also THE OFFICER, then these predispositions will be strongly accentuated. But the most beneficial side of your Profile only becomes more evident when there is, as your Natural Profile or among your Dominant Profiles, one of the following: THE FRIEND, THE LEADER, THE ANALYSER, or THE PHILOSOPHER.

THE ANALYSER is your personality’s Dominant Profile. 

Overall prudence and a need for safety are two vital features of this Profile. You probably need to feel safe and well-grounded before you move into action or venture into the unknown. Typically, those born under this Dominant Profile are experts in making their boundaries well known, a way of clearly defining their territory, creating a place they recognise and feel safe in. 

Positive factors that derive from this need for safety are your propensity and capacity to study, analyse, obtain information, and further your knowledge. These abilities help you feel well informed and, therefore less vulnerable. 

There’s another important aspect of your Profile not related to ideas or information but to people. Unless other dominant profiles contradict this, you tend to be people-oriented rather than task-oriented. 

In fact, this is one of your greatest strengths! Do note that this isn’t merely a pragmatic way in which you feel it is beneficial to cultivate good relationships with others. On the contrary, you truly value your relations with others and have a strong need to help them. Your capacity to empathize is astonishing! 

Being under this Profile also means you feel most comfortable when “preparing for action”. In other words, getting to know your grounds, studying, accumulating and managing information, and, last but not least, to contribute for a good emotional connection between elements of any social group (family, friends, coworkers).

On the other hand, you might feel less comfortable when it comes to “go into action”, something out of your comfort zone. But take into account that the presence of other more dynamic Profiles in your personality will help overcome this weak point.

In any case, your association with more outgoing and daring individuals will be beneficial. 

NOTE:

If your Natural Profile is THE ANALYSER as well, these predispositions will tend to be more accentuated. However, the positive side of this Profile tends to be more noticeable when combined with other Profiles like THE EXPERT, THE PERFORMER, THE OFFICER, or THE WARRIOR.
