On Xunfeng

Was reading about the Eight Trigrams in Chinese mysticism, which I definitely don't grok fully but are an interesting exercise in the powers of 2 and whose existence I only know of because it's written the exact same way as the word for "gossip"... anyway I came across a familiar two characters:

name: 巽 xùn image in nature: 風 fēng (wind) phase: wood attribute: penetrating state: gentle entrance animal: 雞 jī (fowl/chicken) (but also a modern slang for penis is 小雞雞, little chicken)

Conclusion: Xunfeng's name is a dick joke *

#another page on the bagua gives the animal as 'cock' fyi #circ talks #love between fairy and devil #clj language meta #bagua #* to be clear this is a joke #wood doesn't have the same connotations in cn (though someone correct me if I am wrong)#and well 'penetrating' is A Translation for 入 #and I definitely cherry-picked the columns of that table to make it seem funnier #will reblog with more serious thoughts on Xunfeng and the Eight Trigrams
