Mnemonic story
Imagine heating a tripod cauldron (鬲) until its contents melt and flow. Even small elements, represented by the insect (虫), dissolve and blend into a single liquid state, leading to the meanings 'melt' or 'circulate.' This character is commonly used in terms like finance (circulation of money) or fusion.
