How is the element test different from astrology or fortune-telling?
Unlike systems based on birth time, the Five Phases psychological assessment focuses on your current, changeable mental state and behavioral preferences. It serves as a mirror for self-awareness, not a prediction of fate. Its value lies in offering adynamic perspective for personal growth and adjustment—the agency always remains with you.
How can I know which energy I need to balance right now?
The most direct signals come from youremotions and bodily sensations.For instance, prolonged feelings of stagnation may relate toWoodenergy, while persistent anxiety might indicateEarthenergy needs attention. Our quiz is designed to help you identify and interpret these signals.The key is observation, not definitive diagnosis.
Can wearing jewelry really affect one's energy?
The concept of "energy" upheld by UDO is centered on cultural symbolism and aesthetic expression. A piece of jewelry that you assign meaning to acts like a motto or apsychological anchor.When you see or touch it, it can gently draw you back to the present, reminding you of your intention and inner state. This is a form ofpositive psychological reinforcement.
What do I need to do to customize my jewelry?
- Choose Your Energy: Select the energetic foundation based on the Five Elements or Chakras.
- Describe Your Vision: Share your story and conception with us.
- Provide Your Request: Clearly and concisely explain your customization requirements(materials/elements/specifications/etc...)
- One-on-One Consultation: We will contact you via email within 24 hours to confirm details and provide the final quote.
- Crafting & Delivery: Upon confirmation, your piece enters the handmade crafting stage.
