Left: movement 辶, right: anal penetration/torture 辟 (buttock from the side 尸, anus 口 with needle 辛 as symbol for penetration or torture)

Movements which mean torture should be evaded.

辶	movement	The radical shinnyuu* stands for movement and thus has the same meaning as the very similar radical ennyou 廴*
辟	torture, anal penetration	anal penetration/torture (buttock from the side 尸, opening/anus 口, needle 辛 as symbol for penetration or torture) [Actually 針 stands for needle and 辛 is understood as the image of a tattoo needle that also stands for: bitter.]
辛	hot, spicy	Is composed of standing 立 and ten 十. Here, in reference to needle 針 (はり), the ten can be seen as a needle, so this somehow expresses the feeling of standing on a needle.

Tip: Go to the radicals that are contained in this character and learn all the characters with this radical systematically!
