Spit Sink

In Tai Chi terms, it represents a combination that can be called Spit Sink (Tou Cam 吐沉) in Southern terminology, or Àn Lǚ 按捋 in Northern terminology.

Sleeping Tiger

In 4 Animals theory, it can be called the Sleeping Tiger (SùHǔ 宿虎) or the Anchoring Tiger or the Mindful Tiger etc — since it represents the Autumn Tiger evolving into the Winter Turtle which is known for Sleeping (aka Sinking), Anchoring, Mindfulness, etc.

Note: the Black Panther is also a fitting name for this energy, since it represents the ‘White Tiger’ or Big Cat of the West (XīFāng BáiHǔ 西方白虎) taking on the colour & energy of the ‘Black Turtle’ or Dark Warrior of the North (BěiFāng XuánWǔ 北方玄武). Note: Bái 白 doesn’t only mean White, and also refers to splitting & spitting expressive autumnal energy; and Xuán 玄 doesn’t only mean Black, it mainly means deep, dark & mysterious.
