Silhouette of a vase with a face silhouette inside it, with the word TSADI below, on a textured grey background.

Tsadi (צ, ץ) means a "righteous person" (Tzadik), and its shape is often interpreted as a hunched-over figure, symbolizing humility and prayer. It represents the quest for righteousness, the hidden foundation of the world, and the spiritual hunter who seeks divine sustenance. The final form (Tsadi Sofit) stands upright, symbolizing the revealed Messiah. The metaphysical meaning of Tsadi is the integration of humility and sovereignty, teaching that true spiritual power is born from devoted service.
