In the flow of nature, there is something called yin and yang five elements. This is an Eastern way of thinking that is not found in the West, but Eastern history has successfully incorporated the energy of nature into our way of life. The five actions of wood, fire, earth, metal and water complement each other and circulate while interacting with each other. The Yin-Yang-Gogyo theory, which applies all things to the concept of Yin-Yang or five elements, can also be applied to aromatherapy. One essential oil has various effects, so there are many things that cannot be divided into yin and yang. It is possible that you have both qualities, or that you coordinate both. In terms of the Five Elements, some have both the nature of water and the nature of earth, and some have the nature of three or more. And when you understand the theory of Yin-Yang-Five Elements, it will be useful not only in therapy but also in various life scenes.
If we apply the properties of the "Five Elements" to aroma...
Bergamot is an essential oil that has the properties of a “tree” that has a steadily rising energy.
Essential oils of "fire" that have energy that spreads and expands are jasmine, etc.
“Earth” essential oils with descending, warm and enveloping energies, such as sweet marjoram
"Golden" essential oils with condensed and concentrated energy are tea trees, etc.
"Water" essential oils with flexible and transformable energy include geranium. |
