Twelve stages guide
死
Stillness
8 / 12
Stillness after effort — quiet, and turned inward.
How it shows up in a person
Little moves on the outside here, and that's the point. Thinking, reading, and time alone carry you further than action.
What matters is which pillar of your chart this stage sits in.

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.
