Longevity
Staying power. The long game, biologically and otherwise.
What it adds
Tian Shou is endurance — a constitution that lasts, and a temperament that does not burn itself out early.
It shows up as steadiness rather than vigour. These are not the people with the most energy in the room; they are the ones still going when the room has emptied.
The tradition pairs it with Blessing and treats the two together as the quiet foundation everything else stands on.
