Symbolism

Embodies balance, flow, and division—particularly the controlled direction of water, which in Japanese culture signifies purity, life, and renewal. It can also suggest clarity and precision.

Etymology: Derived from the Japanese words 'hasu' (蓮, lotus) or more likely 'hasu' as a phonetic variant of 'hashi' meaning edge or boundary, and 'mi' (水) meaning water. Alternatively, it may originate from 'ha' (blade) and 'sumi' (corner or dwelling), but most commonly interpreted as related to water flow in geographical contexts.
