Saoshyant — The Future Savior, World Renewer

The Saoshyant ('one who brings benefit') is the future savior who will lead humanity in the final battle against evil and inaugurate Frashokereti. Born of a virgin from Zarathustra's seed preserved in a lake, he appears at the end of history to complete what the prophet began. Hex 24 (Return) is the single yang line re-entering from below — the light returning after total darkness, the turning point. Hex 19 (Approach) is the advance of the great toward the world — earth over lake, power approaching from above. The Saoshyant is Return made personal: not a season but a person who embodies the turning point.
