curious to see what people say about the use of symbols behind intentions of form and what are some of your favorite symbols that are incorporated into your style?? :)

5 emotions, 5 seasons, 5 orientations, 5 directions, 5 colors, 5 aspects of survival, 5 spiritual aspects... i was musing over how water nurtures wood, but too much water causes the tree rot, fall over, and dam up the stream, which causes a bit of stagnation in the general flow of things. :D

Could you reword the first part of your question? It's hard to determine what it is you're asking.i ask the question... you determine the answer. :)


and manual dexterity!and stinky fingers...

there are many symbolism in postures.

in ba ji

1 the opening posture, when you move one arm forward, and the other arm backward and assume empty stance

it is called gauging the heaven and earth or liang tian di.

2 if your other arm is close to your body, it is called opening or drawing the bow or kai gong shi. meaning you only open one arm.

3 the closing posture, one arm is straight and the other arm with bent elbow,

it is called single wing push or dan yi ding.

there are many taoism symbolism, too.


:cool:

right now the two most profoundly effective shapes for me are the circle and the spiral... perfect rotation - torque energy is very powerful... been practicing alot with it on the heavy bag recently... rolling in and out from elbow, shoulder, and body strikes. turning both symbols sideways on a two dimensional plane likewise creates a straight line, therefore ultimately i have been playing with 3 symbols... kinda like a triangle. :D

How about the symbol of internet challenges that never materialise? Do you incorporate that into your training?

Octagon is good

Plumflower is good.

Tearing chryanthemum is better.

eight diagrams are a numeral to derive and change.

plum flower has 7 septa, 7 moves in connection

tearing what?

:confused:
