Chinese Zodiac Dragon of 5 Elements

The Metal Dragon
The first thing to say is that people born under the patronage of the Dragon sign of the Metal element are characterized by cruelty and severity, straightforwardness, and incontinence. Metal representatives of this animal often turn out to be intriguers, conflicting people, incapable of long-term communication and quarreling with everyone.
The feeling of compassion is weakly expressed in these people. They rarely regret anything, never sympathize, and if they talk about compassion, they do it only in order not to look too tough and cruel. So to speak, they act for the good of the image...
But these men and women are for the most part very decisive and purposeful, brave, risky, and self-confident. If such a person makes a decision, he will definitely follow it. The Metal Dragon will not think about the consequences, will not worry or be afraid, but will simply do what he has planned. However, they are also prone to rash decisions, which often lead to far from the best consequences.
They are also very invulnerable people in terms of criticism and statements addressed to them. Such a person cannot be hurt by criticism, even the strictest or rudest. He simply will not pay attention to criticism, and if he does, he will respond in such a way that the critic himself will be offended and left alone with his own hurt feelings and dignity.
He's the toughest and strongest of the clan. Also the one with the strongest will, the most efficient, and the one who attacks the most. He's an honest and wonderful friend or partner, but a terrible enemy. His ego is huge: a Dragon to tame or die trying.

Woman: she's ambitious and seeks power no matter who gets in the way. Honest, she can be a good partner if she controls her ego.

Man: temperamental, full of whims, loses control if frustrated. He may appear affable and gentle, but he's very rough inside.

The water Dragon
Water Dragons are distinguished by patience, calmness, thoroughness and reliability, slowness and attentiveness, and responsibility. A representative of this category will never rush, they will think through any business from beginning to end, weigh all the pros and cons, predict the consequences of their actions, if possible, and only then start acting. These are the main character traits of all Water Dragons without exception...
Usually these people are literally surrounded by attention and care. They are always well-respected in society, have many friends, love to communicate on various topics and are cheerful, resourceful, and energetic. Of course, spontaneity is not characteristic of them, but even without this quality they are quite interesting.
Moreover, representatives of this category are usually wise, each in their own way, but nevertheless. They are creators, they know how to analyze everything that happens around them like no one else, and they learn from the mistakes of others, and not, like most people, from their own. But to be fair, there is one "but" - Water Dragons are too optimistic, and sometimes their optimism prevents them from soberly assessing what is happening around them.
The success of his life will depend on his talent because, no matter what he does, he will never take advantage of others. Creative, original, and full of ideals that he defends with claws and fire. He's more inclined to commitment than most of his peers.

Woman: she's brilliant, creative, and has artistic talent; softened by the water, she's the most accessible of the clan. Intuitive and capable of commitment.

Man: educated and kind, open to criticism, respects others, and is even a bit bohemian. The most fun of the dragons.

The earth Dragon
These are people of their word, materialists, economists, and good parents. A person born under the patronage of the Dragon sign, and even in the year of the Earth element, will definitely become a good parent, mother or father, and will give their offspring everything they need. But that's not all…
People patronized by this element and sign are materialists. They always spend money only on what benefits them, do not like to spend their savings on all sorts of nonsense, know how to accumulate funds and invest them with maximum benefit. In many ways, their happiness depends on material things. Although, again, there are exceptions - it all depends on upbringing.
Realists - this trait also belongs to them. They always look at the world and see it for what it is, never cherish illusions, and if they try to predict the consequences of their actions, they first of all consider the most negative situations. To many, such a person may seem like a pessimist, but in fact this is not so - it's just that the Earth Dragon is always ready for the worst consequences, situations, events...
He's the least combative, or at least he handles things with an iron hand hidden in a velvet glove. He has a lot of charm and appeal to the opposite sex. He hates loneliness and will never abandon his family.

Woman: full of charm, she has a huge ego but appreciates others' opinions. She's a better friend than the rest of the Dragons.

Man: he has more charm and willpower than the other Dragons. He's loyal, but doesn't hesitate to seek revenge if attacked. He needs the stability of family.

The wood Dragon
The main distinctive feature of all Wood Dragons is their excessive kindness and friendliness towards all people without exception. Thrift is also present. Plus, those born under the patronage of the element Metal also have an innate sense of style. They love to show themselves off, love to be admired, and do everything to get maximum attention.
Purposefulness is inherent in almost all Dragons, but those patronized by the element of Wood have it in even greater abundance. It is in their nature to finish everything they start. Such a person will not abandon a started business, will always finish it, and will do everything possible so that no one can reproach him.
Although he's very open to new ideas, he likes to always be right. He has strong esoteric inclinations and great creative potential. In addition, he's one of those who forgive.

Woman: intense and exotic, with problems getting out of crises, but also much warmer and tender than the other Dragons. She has a strong sense of justice and humor.

Man: unconventional and highly artistic, he likes to be in charge and be applauded. He has a great sense of humor, but problems with his self-esteem.

The fire Dragon
Those patronized by the element of Fire are very hardworking. They cannot sit idly by, they are always in action, in business, they never do nothing, they try to keep themselves busy and not waste time. Fire Dragons easily advance through the career ladder and are always ahead of everyone, and their hard work can charm even the most demanding boss. Although, quite often such people themselves become bosses, leaders.
Straightforwardness is also in abundance here. Such a person will never beat around the bush or speak in veiled terms about what he thinks, he will always tell the interlocutor directly about his merits and shortcomings. He will never be afraid to express his dissatisfaction directly, he will not think about what may offend. It is not in the rules of the Fire Dragon to think about how someone else will perceive his words.
Fire Dragon (1916-76) A volcano in eruption. He's extremist in everything: he loves or hates, and is loved or hated. He can be a good leader, as long as he's right. He's intuitive and very closed, but behind his armor hides a tender and emotionally insecure being.

Woman: captivating, she appears to be secure but inside she's very vulnerable. She needs to surround herself with people who give her security.

Man: restless, magnetic, he's consumed by an inner fire. His plans are so big that it's almost impossible to follow him. He has an instinct to achieve his goals.

It is thanks to them that the representatives of this sign achieve incredible popularity in society.
Quite often, people around Dragons are drawn to them. But there are also frequent cases when the Dragons themselves refuse to communicate and avoid it. This happens in cases when a person is simply not interested in communicating with a particular person. People patronized by this symbol are selective and do not want to see in their environment those who do not deserve it. And not everyone is able to deserve it. But those to whom such a person will have sympathy, the Dragon will not only let him close, but will also try to tie him in some way. For example, he can make the interlocutor dependent, create an environment in which he cannot do without him, or even try to fall in love with him. And if you are a woman whom he tried to fall in love with, then it is better not to tune in to a relationship with him. His desire to make you fall in love with him may be due only to the desire to raise his self-esteem. And by the way, yes, indeed, Dragons are very charming, eloquent in their majority. It is easy for them to attract attention to themselves in the course of communication. You may not like such a person at first, but as soon as you start communicating with him, that's it, you will no longer be able to stop, and you will not want to. After all, these are people who create intrigue around themselves, attract attention with charm, shower compliments and know how to charm. It is simply useless to resist such people.

For those born under the sign of the Dragon, work is the most important thing, their dedication is complete; Dragons are people gifted with great talent and creativity, although sometimes their stubbornness makes them make big mistakes and they are not able to rectify them on the go, determined to move forward, they do not see the details and subtleties that can be fundamental to the success of their projects. They are also too proud to ask for help, and stubborn: they will not give in even if it means breaking their arm.
In love, their sincerity is enormous, as is their charm. Not very altruistic, it is difficult for them to put themselves in the other person's shoes, they are intransigent, impatient and sometimes a bit of a puppet, they are insensitive to other people's pain... so their partner will have to be very clear about this from the beginning.
