Goodie’s “Unauthentic“ Reading IChing - #2 The Receptive Earth (Hexagram)
The card illustration is drawn by illustrator AmoLime. The following is the overall description of the image.
This card illustrates different aspects of the earth. The woman in the center of the image is standing on the ground and surrounded by the trees. The background is tinted with yellow color representing the soil, and the blue sky is not a part of this image.
The feminine figure represents yin. A mother who gives birth and nurtures a life symbolizes the main theme of this card. She is holding a peach in her hand with content smile on her face.
She is standing in a garden or a forest filled with peach trees. The abundant amount of peach hanging on the tree represent fruitfulness and fertility. In the western culture such as Tarot or Bible, the concept is often represented by grape vine, but in oriental philosophy, the peach is often a symbol of eternal youth and immortality.
