... water with earth-chi ...

...would the chi be stopped , life couldn´t go forward. If a person with the element of water get to much earth-chi, it would be very hard to move on, the earth-chi make the water muddy. The time is come to take a rest. Hopefully not forever...
Otherwise it is nice to have, as a water-chi person, earth-chi like a river. The earth- chi guides the water to the ocean... to the destination!
