Igor Stravinsky had Water and Fire only, and Fire was clearly stronger, so Metal-Water served as favor. Overall, from (9) to (2) is the Metal-Water semicircle. He had all the Metal-Water fortunes for majority of his life, that’ why he had great achievement. Although he was in great fortune in general, the change of fortune still marks his life path: His debut was 1909, because (10) is the peak of Metal. He changed his style in 1919, because his fortune changed, etc…

With strong Fire and weak Water, Wood served as foe. Not only because Wood supports Fire, but also for Wood transfers power from Water to Fire, that Water generate Wood and Wood generate Fire. He died in the (4) fortune, (4) is Wood at the peak stage. Furthermore, the year he died was 1971. It was a (12) year. It was the year that Wood was at the strongest in the (4) fortune. Because (12) supported and merged (4) to Wood as foe.

I can see Stravinsky was special: he had nothing else but the collision between Water and Fire. Maybe you know this, the word “thing” in Chinese is “东西”. Literally, it means East and West. Odd? Well it because East and West are represented by Wood and Metal, so it means anything that takes forms. In comparison, Fire and Water can represents things that don’t have physical forms. People who have strong Fire or Water are usually clever, in a way, because there are many ways. Because Fire or Water represents metaphysics, they represent beauty (Fire) or mystery (Water), things those are not physical.

On the other hand, clash of elements is the clash of mind. With nothing else but the collision between Water and Fire, this must be an extraordinary mind. Intense crush of mind is not always a good thing, but there's no right and wrong in the realm of art, it doesn't matter to be extreme.
