Episode 398: Metal Element: A Conversation with Katherine Metz

In this episode, we continue our five elements series with a conversation about metal and its connection to autumn. We are once again joined by our mentor, feng shui master teacher Katherine Metz, to explore metal as wisdom, refinement, right action, and the ability to let go with precision and grace.

Together, we move beyond the idea that metal is simply rigid or controlling. We discuss its quieter, yin qualities: reflection, joy, completion, clarity, and the wisdom that develops through life experience.

We cover: 

-Metal as the element of wisdom and how hardship can reveal valuable insight

-Metal’s qualities of clarity, precision, refinement, structure, and right action

-Metal’s relationship to letting go, including releasing regrets, outdated habits, and things that no longer serve us

-Metal’s role in communication, advocacy, and using language that is clear, precise, and considerate.

…and much more!
