癸 Gui · The Rain and Mist

癸 Gui — The Rain and Mist

癸水 is mist, dew, and underground springs — subtle, intuitive, penetrating where force cannot. It relies on 辛金 as its source and 丙火 to lift it into clouds. It reads what others miss, and must beware dissolving into moods and over-thinking.

The elemental god: A veiled goddess of fog and falling rain, half-dissolving over a still valley pool.
