How does one know if they are a weak or strong element. I know that my husband and I are both wood element. My birthday is May 12, 1961 2:43pm and my husbands is april 26, 1961 4:pm. Are strong or weak. Also, our home was built in 1957 - (5) and facing directly WEST. (we brought the house before I new about FS). Even though the house faces our total loss direction, it is a Wang Shan, Wang Shu house. How can I use this to increase our luck. We REALLY need to increase our cash flow and sell a car.
