Numbers on different occasions can often represent different five elements, so specific analysis is required.
In the five-frame naming system, the single digits 1 and 2 are wood, 3 and 4 are fire, 5 and 6 are earth, 7 and 8 are gold, and 9 and 0 are water.
In Feng Shui, 16 is water, 27 is fire, 38 is wood, 49 is gold, and 50 is earth.
In the Bagua, the five elements represented by the innate Bagua and acquired Bagua numbers are also different.
