Adopted text on the work: Eight Symbols of the Book of Changes. Eight Questions; Eight Answers - A conversation with Milena Slavická and Kamila Ženatá:
M.S.: The fire signifies brightness, sun, light. It resides in the eyes, forming a protective circle. It is the symbol of enlightenment. It expresses the internal feminine principle.
K.Ž.: Fire is energy, heat, sparkling, but I'd tell you what is essentially commonly known, even banal associations. But how does this one interact with the other principles? Their form is so endearing as to be tame, but that rawness is elemental and indomitable. It is very indomitable, and unbindable with anyone, powerful, wild, overpowered by other lords than that which we are.
