About this trigram

Fire (Li) is the clinging, light, clarity and attachment. Every Gene Key is built from two trigrams, one above the other. When Fire sits on top it colours how the key meets the world; when it sits below it colours where the key begins. Sixteen of the sixty-four keys carry it, eight above and eight below.
