Chinese numerology
Descending flow from prosperity 八 (bā) through contemplation 七 (qī) to Wu-Xing center 五 (wǔ), ending in zero — emptiness containing all. Taoists see the path from 'fā' (发) wealth to 'wú' (無) void birthing myriads.

Western numerology
A descending spiral of light — from material grandeur of eight through spiritual depths of seven, via freedom's pulse of five to quiet wisdom of two. Ancient alchemists called this path 'dissolving gold in mercury of the soul.'
