The Shuōwén Seal form of 乾(𠄃𠄊) qián/gān combines 倝() qián/gān (phonetic), together with 乙() yǐ (天干); 倝() itself combines 旦() dàn ‘dawn/sunrise’ and 㫃(𣃗) yǎn (phonetic). The character 㫃 is said to represent ‘flag/streamers/banners’, as in 旌旗 jīngqí ‘standard/banners’, and as in 旅(𣃨) lǚ ‘army marching under a standard’. 乾 ☰䷀ Qián (pure yáng) is associated with the ‘royal colors/standard’, in the same way that 阳/昜() yáng is said to contain 勿() wù ‘flag’. | The Shuōwén Seal form of 乾(𠄃𠄊) qián/gān combines 倝() qián/gān (phonetic), together with 乙() yǐ (天干); 倝() itself combines 旦() dàn ‘dawn/sunrise’ and 㫃(𣃗) yǎn (phonetic).
