On-Yomi: キ — Kun-Yomi: はだ

Elements:

texture, moon, month, flesh, part of the body, wind

Heisig story:

Ever notice how the texture of your face and hands is affected by the wind? A day's skiing or sailing makes them rough and dry, and in need of a good soft cream to soothe the burn. So whenever a part of the body gets exposed to the wind, its texture is affected. (If it is any help, the Latin word hiding inside texture connotes how something is "to the touch.")

Koohii stories:

2) [Rachael] 25-1-2008(136): The moon's lack of wind preserves its texture.

3) [Tsuki11] 30-10-2007(36): Because the moon has no wind the texture of it's cratered surface never changes or erodes.

4) [Loren] 17-8-2008(20): The Moon And The Wind Create The Sea's Wavey Texture!

5) [Teango] 12-3-2010(7): A month of wind changes the texture of your skin.
