Five Elements in focus

Explore the meaning of each element

Browse the cards to explore each element’s traditional meaning and a simple intention to carry into daily life.

Metal

Act with resolve

From hesitation to a considered step

In this collection, Metal expresses discernment, resolve and purposeful action—a personal reminder to consider your direction, then take the next step.

Explore Metal if you are making a decision, starting a project or seeking a more deliberate rhythm.

Wood

Keep growing

Grow with openness and care

Wood reflects growth, learning and harmony. Its meaning invites patience with change and sincerity in the way we relate to others.

Consider Wood when learning something new, entering a new setting or wishing to bring more patience to your relationships.

Water

Find your flow

Think clearly. Speak thoughtfully.

Water draws on wisdom, flow and communication. It carries an intention of clear thought and thoughtful expression, with space to notice your emotions.

Explore Water when you wish to gather your thoughts, communicate with care or approach change more calmly.

Fire

Begin with purpose

Bring your enthusiasm into the day

Fire centres on enthusiasm, action and initiative. Its meaning celebrates meeting everyday life with purpose and taking a thoughtful step towards what matters.

Consider Fire when beginning a goal, a creative project or a plan you wish to approach with renewed commitment.

Earth

Return to balance

Make room for what matters

Earth continues the collection’s theme of balance. Carry a quiet intention of steadiness through everyday life, and cherish the meaning it holds over time.

Explore Earth if you value a balanced rhythm of life. There is no need to force your choice into a fixed formula.

These are traditional cultural meanings. Wearing a piece can express an intention and encourage reflection; it does not guarantee changes in fortune or health.

How this is calculated

The Gregorian date and local clock time at birth produce the year, month, day and hour pillars. Year and month boundaries follow Start of Spring and the solar terms; the day pillar changes at 23:00. Dates from 1900 through today are supported. Fixed library solar-term times are used, without country, time-zone, daylight-saving or true-solar-time adjustments.

The counts cover the surface elements of four stems and four branches: eight in total, excluding hidden stems and Na Yin. “Missing” means absent from these eight surface positions, not necessarily absent from hidden stems. Counts do not determine strength or imply a need for supplementation. This query does not assess overall strength or favourable elements.

The calculation runs in this page. This plugin does not upload or save birth details.

Three honours. One commitment.

Three international honours recognise our journey, and remind us to care for the trust you place in us.

A few things to know

Which five Dzi are in this collection?

The collection includes Dragon-Scale Red Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth Dzi. Each has its own product page and can be selected and purchased individually.

How do the five themes differ?

Metal centres on resolve and action; Wood on growth and resilience; Water on wisdom and communication; Fire on enthusiasm and initiative; and Earth on balance. These are traditional cultural meanings to explore alongside your own preferences.

Do I need to buy all five?

No. The five products are sold individually. You can choose just one and confirm its quantity and price here and in your cart.

Can I choose a pattern or an individual bead?

Specific patterns and individual beads cannot be selected. Order Metal and receive Metal, order Fire and receive Fire; the same applies to every element. Each piece is carefully selected by Qi Xi before dispatch. Patterns and colours vary, so product photographs are for reference.

More questions
How do the three price tiers differ?

The plus sign means prices start at the lowest tier. Each element offers US$168, US$312 and US$540 tiers; higher-priced tiers offer finer quality. Qi Xi carefully selects each piece within the chosen tier. Specific patterns and individual beads cannot be selected, and checkout uses the selected tier’s price.

What is the collection’s offering background?

The collection was offered in a Tibetan temple for thirty-six months in accordance with Tibetan Buddhist rituals. It may be worn or respectfully displayed as a reminder of mindfulness, kind intentions and thoughtful actions.

Where should I begin if this is my first Dzi?

Begin with the meanings of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth, then choose the element that speaks to you. Qi Xi selects the individual piece. Contact us if you have questions about the product or how it is allocated.
