Type No. 200 of 576
the Radiant Sun × the Flock on the Green Hill
Presence × Kindness × the Free Thread
Leo
Leo is the sign of the radiant sun. This thread tends to warm a room simply by being in it — recognition matters, not as vanity, but as proof the work was seen.
Goat
The Goat is the flock on the green hill (in some traditions rendered as the Sheep). This thread tends to put the group's comfort first and to make beauty out of ordinary days.
It approaches life by harmony: feed everyone, mend the fence, keep the hill pleasant.
Type B
Type B is read, in the Japanese custom, as the free thread — the one that leaves the pattern to see what the cloth could be. This reading tends to follow real interest rather than the schedule on the wall.
In practice, the B thread works best with room to roam and a deadline that is real; its honesty about what it actually wants is a form of respect.
The shadow in this thread is the abandoned loom: a new fascination can quietly inherit the time owed to an old promise.
Strengths and tender spots
Strength: generous visibility that gives other people permission to shine
Gift: warmth — people heal faster around a Goat, including the Goat, when it remembers itself
Tender spot: waiting for applause before starting the quiet, unglamorous step
