  Yi Jing, Oracle of the Moon

Qián-Xùn, Heaven-Wind/Wood
trigram Heaven    Wind

  When Qián meets Xùn, Heaven brings fearlessness and perseverance, but Heaven can never deviate from its severe laws. Heaven's rotation reigns the cycles. Everything starts, grows, declines and disappears again. Wind brings the movement, the insecurity, and the freedom to choose. It is the free movement forward, the change into new times with remnants of the old ones. Wind brings the uncertain future.
  Together they start everything which can go right or wrong: life.
  In the cycle of the year Heaven and Wind bring a new crop, in the cycle of human lives they bring a new generation. Take care of the new seeds, they are vulnerable. The slightest push in a wrong direction can cause decay. But also take care of the past they will carry along. Their health depends largely on your decisions.

This is the short answer - click for the complete one (with 'your' helpers).

  About the 3 lines of the trigrams and the helpers:
  Each line, active or at rest, summons one of the 8 trigrams as a Helper. For an activated line: telling you what you need - or about a problem area or something to avoid.
  For a stationary line: this is what you already have or do or what you don't need. Often we just need a reminder of our abilities. Or it could be what you wish or fear - but will not happen.
  Active lines are the helpers to change things, they listen to intentions, which can come from you, surroundings, or fate. Stationary helpers are part of the core meaning, they are your soul talking, but they also see the impossibilities or what is lacking at the moment. They reinforce the overall power of a reading.
