The theme of the Metal part of our energetic bodies is, letting go vs. grieving and holding on to the past. Within the Metal element we have the ability to resolve either grief and sadness or embarrassment and shame. As unpleasant as these feelings are, it is essential to process them completely in order to free up the Qi in the physical body. Opening up, in order to attain worth, and letting go, in order to release whatever is no longer worthwhile, are the two Yin-Yang aspects of the Mental element. The ongoing ability to achieve self-worth is intimately connected to Justice, which is the virtue of the Metal element. If a person loses something of value, like a possession, job, or loved one, the emotion of grief and sadness appears spontaneously. The ability of the spirit to resolve these emotions determines how the person will perceive Justice. If the person concludes that this loss happens to them unjustly and then reacts to this conclusion by drawing inferences and blaming others, the organs (lungs) of their Metal element will then compound the suffering they sustained from the original loss.
