How your year is formed
In Saju every year has a heavenly stem and an earthly branch. 1941 is 辛巳: the stem 辛 is Metal Yin ("The Jewel": the brilliance born of pressure and polish) and the branch 巳 is the Snake. Together they make the year of the Metal Snake.
Your element and your animal
The animal's element (Fire) moderates that of the year (Metal): a tendency to hold back and organize your own energy well before acting.
In Saju, the Metal element is associated with order, precision and determination. It is an image to recognize yourself, not a fixed label: everyone lives it in their own way.
