Astrology
In Chinese astrology, wood is included in 10 celestial shapes (five elements in the form of yin and theirs), which are joined by 12 Branches of the Earth (or signs of the Chinese zodiac), to form a 60-year cycle.
The WOOD year ends at 4 (eg 1974).
Yin WOOD year ended on 5 (eg 1975).
Wood set the Chinese zodiac sign Tiger, Rabbit and Dragon.
Some Western astrologers have debated the connection between wood and Ether elements, arguing that ether is associated with Jupiter in Vedic Astrology.
Wu Xing Cycle
In the regenerative cycle of Wu Xing, water produces Wood, "because rain or dew causes crop life to flourish"; Wood gives birth to fire as "fire is produced by rubbing two pieces of wood" and it must be driven by wood burning.
In the cycle of conquest:
Wood overcomes the earth by tying it with the roots of trees and pulling food from the ground;
Metal overcomes Wood, because metal axes can topple the largest trees.
