Your dominant element is water. The ancient Yin-Yang scholars saw water types as people who usually didn't mind spending a little time by themselves. Do some people think you brood too much or are a bit of a loner? It may be that you just happen to enjoy your own company. Honesty probably means a lot to you--if there's one thing water types can't stand, it's people who tell lies, even "little" white lies. Do you love the beach, the pool or even just hot baths? Water types are happiest near water.

Water has no defined shape and is related to a strong sense of imagination that defies set boundaries.

Calmness is the dominant elemental energy of water and this helps us to make decisions that are smart and well-considered.

Water can stand still or flow. Prevailing stillness promotes peace of mind while flowing water energizes.

To enhance both the soothing and stimulating qualities, the water energy needs to be near real water. It doesn't have to be the ocean or a river--an aquarium or even floating candles in your house should be more than sufficient.

A cold climate is best for the water energy, as it prevents it from evaporating into steam. The color that corresponds to water is black. Water types like salty foods.

NOTE: Water types tend to have curvy hips and often look like they are deep in thought, even if they're not.
