The Shuōwén Seal form of 情 qíng ‘(human) feeling/emotion/passion/desire’ combines 忄(心 xīn) ‘heart/feeling’, and 青(𤯞𤯝靑) qīng ‘green/fresh’ (phonosemantic).
Note: SW glosses this as ‘the (unrestrained/unlimited) ⚋ feminine/dark side of human desire’ (人之陰氣有欲者); the seven primary human emotions included in ⓪ 情 ‘feelings’ are ⑴ 喜 ‘joy’, ⑵ 怒 ‘anger’, ⑶ 哀 ‘sorrow’, ⑷ 懼 ‘fear’, ⑸ 愛 ‘love’, ⑹ 惡 ‘disgust’, ⑺ 欲 ‘desire’; the three innate paired/contrasting feelings are ⑴ 好惡 love/disgust, ⑵ 喜怒 happiness/anger, and ⑶ 哀樂 mourning/celebration; 性 xìng ‘(good/positive) human nature/character’ innately ⚊ yáng ‘male’ reasons/controls; 情 qíng ‘(human) feeling/emotion/passion’ is born of ⚋ yīn ‘female’ longing/worry; the 生 ‘innate/birth’ component in both of these forms (性/情) takes/has a different aspect in each (innate abilities, vs. derived sentiments).
Compare: 精 jīng ‘select/perfect (rice)’, 酒精 ‘alcohol’ (distilled essence of rice wine).
