When
Xùn meets Dui, there is a strong sense of purpose that one shares with others. Together one can fight enemies and protect the members. This is the power of Lake with her high vibration, she can resonate and connect with others. It is a strong instinct and fulfilling it will bring happiness and belonging.
But there is also a sense of self with the ability to navigate connections without suppressing personal desires. This is the power of Wind, which is deep and far reaching and influencing. A group is strong when its members are self-conscious individuals, not when they follow meekly.
This is the short answer - click for the complete one.
The middle line shows the result. It is stationary yang, there will not be any increase or decrease, but still action and output. Yang is inspiring, but it is too early to expect concrete results. The middle line is the 'man' line, it can also be about you yourself, not only what you do.
If this project does not need a concrete solution, yang can be very positive. It will continue to inspire and bring joy and brightness. Even if it stays unsubstantial in a material sense, it can improve the lives of people, like movies, holidays, love or a guiding star. But stay within limits, yang brings increase, but without yin it is prone to deplete itself, it is relentless and tends to be too cold or to strive too much. Plans may be too theoretical or even illusionary. If you are aware of this and rein it in, yang brings the joy of plans and visions.
Inspire yourself and your surroundings.
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. Stationary helpers are part of the core meaning, they are your soul talking. They reinforce the overall power of a reading.
Advice for the initiative:
Kan, Water, with his direction and focus, his courage to take risks and his talent to give things shape
Advice for the subject:
Xun, Wind, with her power to choose and influence
Advice for the outcome:
Gen, Mountain with his constancy, his ability to make things endure, is lacking here or not needed. Yang remains Yang.
But when things are not satisfying, it might be that one or more helpers don't help enough - or try too hard. Or maybe you don't listen carefully enough.
