Dew settling on a blade: cool, exact, nothing wasted. Precision is the gift; fussing over what does not matter is the tax.

Metal hammered to an edge — decisive, and sharp enough to cut the hand that holds it.

Guǐ carries the image of rain, dew, a spring underground. That is this pillar's baseline; the branch it is paired with decides the rest.

Yǒu is Metal, yin in polarity, and carries the Rooster.

Hidden stems: every branch conceals stems of its own, in descending weight — Xīn Metal (100%).
