5 elements card game
A fun quintet game, while learning about the Taoist five elements.
Collect the most quintets and become the Master of Balance!
Ask, memorise, put on your poker face and collect all 5 element-cards: wood, fire, earth, metal and water.
When you have a quintet, show your opponents a big smile and shout out Wu Xing! Which means ‘5 elements’ in Chinese. But watch out, the other players can steal your cards as well.
Send as present?
If you have any special wishes or questions, like sending the game as a present, you can mention this in the "comments"-field in the last step of your order, "confirmation".
For you
Great game for tao lovers and acupuncture, shiatsu, qigong and yin yoga practitioners.
It is fun for everyone, you can play the game in 3 levels: beginners, advanced and expert.
Cool fact: to practice your 5 elements knowledge, you can also play it alone, as a memory game or use them like tarot cards.

More info about the game
You find the 12 categories below. Each category has one card of each element. For example:
Category name = taste & food.
Element Earth = yellow card.
Specific name of the card = sweet carrot.
The taste of the element Earth is "sweet" and the carrot is just a nice example of a typical Earth-food. To support your earth element, it is good to eat sweet healthy (!) products, like sweet potato and carrots.
