Independence

4 / 12

Standing on your own feet — capable, steady, ready to work.

Where it sits in the twelve

The twelve are one turning cycle: forming, growing, filling, easing, emptying, then forming again. No square is an end.

A stage describes the day master's vigour in that branch. It speaks of energy's phase, not a person's life — so 死, 墓 and 絕 mean stillness, storing and an open gap, not death.
