• The Elemental Blueprint You Were Born With
    Feb 25 2026

    Nature does not create duplicates.

    In this episode, Hana K'Koa explores the elemental blueprint you were born with — the constitutional pattern of energy that shapes how you feel, respond, relate, and move through the world.

    Through the lens of the Five Elements, we examine the difference between who you are and the season you are in — and why remembering your nature brings a deep sense of internal organization and steadiness.

    When you understand your design, life becomes clearer.

  • Lunar New Year: The Threshold Before Growth
    Feb 19 2026

    In the Chinese calendar, Lunar New Year marks the energetic beginning of Spring. It signals the return of rising movement, vision, and direction.

    But in classical Chinese Medicine, Spring does not begin with force. It begins beneath the surface. Wood stirs quietly while there is still cold in the air.

    In this episode, Hana K'Koa explores Winter as the cocoon between identities, the necessary season of consolidation before emergence. We examine why internal transformation, yin, gives birth to external expansion, yang, and why rushing growth often leads to depletion.

    If you feel like you are in between, not who you were and not yet who you are becoming, this episode offers orientation.

  • Harmony is the foundation of health and longevity in Chinese Medicine
    Feb 12 2026
    In this opening episode of The Five Element Oracle, Hana K'Koa introduces harmony as a state of relationship: between the body, the emotions, the environment, and the season of life one is in. Through the lens of the Five Elements, this episode explores how disharmony develops, why symptoms are intelligent signals within a larger system, and how alignment is restored through rhythm, coherence, and listening. This is an orienting teaching and a return to understanding health as a lived, seasonal, and relational experience.

  • A Birth Chart Reading on Boundaries, People-Pleasing, and the Anger Beneath It
    Aug 21 2025
    What if your struggle with boundaries wasn't a flaw — but a reflection of your elemental blueprint? In this intimate episode, Hana shares a real Five Element Birth Chart Reading (shared anonymously, with permission) that explores one woman's deep inner conflict between pleasing others and honoring herself. As you listen, you may hear pieces of your own emotional patterns reflected back to you. This chart holds the energy of Yin Wood, Yang Metal, and Yang Wood — a powerful combination that reveals why people-pleasing can feel like protection, why anger is often buried beneath it, and how growth begins when we choose truth over approval. In this episode, you'll hear:
    • Why people-pleasing is often an elemental pattern, not a personality flaw.
    • How unexpressed anger shows up in the body — especially in perimenopause.
    • The Wood Element's tug-of-war between freedom and fear of change.
    • How the Metal Element creates perfectionism and self-silencing.
    • Why boundaries aren't rejection — they're your path to peace.
    • A reframe on symptoms as messages from the body, not problems to fix.
    • Practical ways to reconnect with your rhythm and reclaim your growth.
    If you've been feeling stuck, scattered, resentful, or tired of putting yourself last… this is your mirror. 🌿 Want to receive your own Five Element Birth Chart Reading?

  • The Life-Changing Power of a Birth Chart Reading
    Aug 14 2025
    What if the day you were born was more than a date — what if it was a map?

    In this episode, I share the story of the birth chart reading that changed my life and how the wisdom of Five Element Chinese Medicine revealed not only who I am — but how to live in alignment with that truth.

    You'll hear:
    • How my first birth chart reading set me on a completely new life path.

    • The three layers of your elemental blueprint: your main constitution, emotional response, and challenge/calling.

    • Why knowing your "North Star" is the first step to healing.

    • How to recognize what alignment actually looks and feels like for you.

    • The relief that comes from realizing there's nothing "wrong" with you.

    If you've been feeling lost, disconnected, or unsure of your next step — this is your invitation to see yourself clearly and find the path home.

  • I'm Not Who I Was: Becoming the Five Element Oracle
    Jul 23 2025

    The Balanced Healer brought me here. She gave me a voice, a path, and a way to serve.

    But after months of inner shedding — through pregnancy, birth, and the quiet unraveling of postpartum — the message became clear:

    Let go.

    Let go.

    Let go.

    And in that letting go, the truest version of me came through.

    In this episode, I share the story behind the identity shift I've been moving through, and why The Five Element Oracle isn't a new direction — it's a return to essence.

    If you've ever felt the pull to become who you really are… this is your permission.
