Our Name
The Nine Star Key, a form of Japanese astrology, is used in the Macrobiotic philosophies to understand our unconscious human tendencies - believing we are all born under one of nine numbers that represent various energies of the five elements that make up the universe. The five elements being tree, fire, earth, metal, and water. Both Jeanne and Patrick’s nine star key number is seven - their element is metal. Under the birth sign of metal their natural tendencies are strong in disciplined self-development, organizational ability and practicality.
Sharing great enthusiasm for life, health and happiness they decided that the special element that they offer people is their passion and energy - thus creating the name the 7th Element.
