Meanings of elements

LONG CONTINUATION and IN HEAT, FLAMING

「Long time continuation」「in heat, flaming」follows the thought that part of the MOXIBUSTION healing process used as ancient Chinese and Japanese medical therapy employs smoke, fire, and heat by slowly burning smoky materials placed over the skin of an affected area (still performed to this day), with the「…focus on the Tibetan technique of moxibustion, an external therapy that uses the power of heat to stimulate a curative effect. A widespread form of traditional healing in the East, moxibustion is one of the most ancient medical therapies known to humanity. Mainly popularized as a branch of Chinese medicine, moxibustion was formerly practiced in Shang Shung, a kingdom predating Tibet whose existence can be traced back at least four thousand years.」

Perhaps also may relate to AROMATHERAPY by using scents of slow-burning woods as part of the healing process, or the healthful benefits of vaporized cannabis buds. Buddhists use clouds of incense smoke when praying for a healing and while chanting that historically include cannabis, and many other religious folks still think the same today. On the other hand, it might mean that if you still think burning animal sacrifices on an altar will cure something, maybe you should get some THERAPY yourself.
「Long time flaming in heat」as a cause of EPIDIDYMAL HYPERTENSION (colloquially, 'blue balls' as perhaps 冬 and 人combined as a variant), VASOCONGESTION, and related CHASTISEMENTS.

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.
