The Moon overhead, its phases, and the path they light.
The phase of the peak and the flame
huǒ · south · summer · the virtue 禮 lǐ, propriety
Fire is the phase that flames and rises, 炎上 (yán shàng). It is heat at its peak, the noon of the year, brightness that warms a room and shows what was hidden. In Chinese thought Fire is not one thing: it is the blazing sun and a single candle at once. Meet both below.
The centrepiece · 丙 and 丁
Every phase has a yang face and a yin face. For Fire they even carry their own names: 丙 the great fire and 丁 the small fire. Tap one.
Where Fire sits on the wheel
Fire is fed by one phase, feeds another, holds a third in check, and is held by a fourth. Follow any thread to that phase.
