Character Traits
"Descending Lou" symbolizes the stem of a plant—channeling nourishment selflessly to all parts. Those under this sign embody unconditional giving, mirroring the Tao's virtue of selfless action . Their direct and unadorned speech harmonizes effortlessly with all beings, reflecting Metal's quality of clarity and integrity.
When adversity befalls others, they extend aid without hesitation, yet when facing personal trials, their resolve may waver like untempered metal—prone to external influences and lacking firm footing. This duality echoes the White Tiger's unyielding strength alongside the humility of Earth (Metal's generative phase in Wu Xing), reminding one of the Daoist ideal: "To know strength yet dwell in softness is to embody the Way."
