「Cause for a mind, spirit」or「mind, spirit dependency」describes an addiction to something, and we might as well face it. All plant and animal life on Earth is biologically driven by the need to eat, survive, and reproduce—anything beyond that is gravy. The MISTY moments of the clouds and the rain are old Chinese euphemisms for orgasmic climax: the sole GENERATIVE FORCE of life, regeneration for the survival of any species is sex, the INNER NATURE, the driving force of an INSTINCTIVE URGE.
Magic originated with religion, the divinity of the shamans to send folks to heaven, provide heavenly experiences of「causing ejaculations」or「ejaculation dependencies」just as「ejaculation」is a synonym of EMANATION: sex…causing many clients to become dependent upon her forms of provided sexual services was highly profitable. Causing folks to believe in her magical powers was useful for maintaining control and dependencies, not unlike many religions of today, keeping everyone in a FOG, MIST, in the CLOUDS and「to keep them coming.」It is no coincidence that 'mystery' and 'misty' in English share the same pronunciation and etymology. Furthermore,「prostrated with rod in motion thrusting forward, one's mind」with「many, array of taut erections in orifice」is exactly how a large number of animal species copulate and reproduce, with the female taking on all comers while in the heat of estrus, and enraged males battling and then lining up for the opportunity to copulate with her orifice, one after another after another until she is satisfied or collapses.

Always keep in mind that these glyphs most likely were originally designed by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that), representing Chinese society many thousands of years ago, but intended NOT as a written or spoken language when created. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system! Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is, and often with multiple correct answers to each riddle, the same as is true today. Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? But, have there been necessary rewrites and altered explanations of the original elemental meanings over the centuries?

No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how seemingly bad our human existence is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or could they have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any lexicon. This site explains multiple meanings of glyphs ignored or censored by other sources, generally as being too embarrassing to admit today.
