Your element and your animal
The animal's own element (Metal) nourishes that of the year (Water): it is described as a generous energy that gives a lot and also benefits from rest.
In Saju, the Water element is associated with depth, adaptability and intuition. It is an image to recognize yourself, not a fixed label: everyone lives it in their own way.
