The Principle of Extremity
We mentioned the importance of maintaining BALANCE (ie the Principle of Moderation) in the study of Chinese Metaphysics. However, in the event, where :-
- the DM is OVERLY STRONG ; or
- the DM is OVERLY WEAK ; or
- the Chart is OVERLY COLD ; or
- the Chart is OVERLY HOT,
We have to FOLLOW THE MAJORITY.
No great man ever complains of want of opportunities.

Dear Master,
I am confuse...what you mean follow the majority?
Could you elaborate?
Kathleen,
If the DM is wood, but the chart is dominated mainly & totally by metal, the DM have to follow the metal.
Which mean to say, the favorable element (in this example) is metal.
