Soil colors influenced by mineralogy. Soil color is often the most visually apparent property of soil. While color itself does not influence the behavior or practical use of soils, [1] it does indicate important information about the soil organic matter content, mineralogy, moisture, and drainage.
Yang earth years end in 8 (e.g. 1998), while Yin earth years end in 9 (e.g. 1999). Earth is the central balance of the elements and therefore lends qualities to all 12 animals as well. The element earth is associated with the planet Saturn on account of its yellow color. [2]
