Meanings of elements

ARRAYED with emphasis on BOTH SIDES MUTUALLY, PHYSICAL APPEARANCE, OBSERVATION OF SOMETHING and HEELS OVER THE HEAD, PLACE OVER AND ABOVE HEAD, DELAYED BY AN OFFER THAT CANNOT BE REFUSED, FULL ACCESS, RESTRICTIONS LIFTED
…or: WOODY and BODY HEATED, TIME OF NUDITY

「Body heated woody」: while the true nature of a lotus 'tree' may be consigned to mythology, if such a tree actually existed, these elements reflect「woody heated」to describe the LOTUS POSITION in which a person, if naked, would be fully revealing his or her crotch to passers-by as「array of consciousness or face down, head in crotch, with woody.」Lotus plants and related concepts are fundamentally related to Buddhism. The lotus position involves sitting upon one's buttocks with the legs crossed in front (「heels above the penile head」) with each foot placed upon the opposite thigh (「both sides mutually」), clearly displaying one's wood, and potentially one's muck hole as well…lotus plants only grow immersed in thick wet muck.

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. 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! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. 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 bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only 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 dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
