Rising current

A paradoxical ladder: from 死 (sǐ) death through 七 (qī) contemplation to 发 (fā) prosperity and 久 (jiǔ) eternity. The ascending sequence transforms even unlucky four into the beginning of a great path. Transformation through overcoming.

An ascent from material order to spiritual wisdom. The foundation of four supports contemplative seven, which nourishes the power of eight and culminates in nine's humanism. A path from structure to transcendence, where each step leads to unity.
