Triads That Form a Strong Elemental Current
Earthly Branch Three Combinations (San He) are four triads: Shen-Zi-Chen (Water), Hai-Mao-Wei (Wood), Yin-Wu-Xu (Fire), and Si-You-Chou (Metal). They represent a strong elemental current when the triad is present or supported. Without season and support, they may only show partial tendency.
