  Yi Jing, Oracle of the Moon

Duì-Kūn, Lake-Earth
Lake    Earth

  What do you want or need to do, what can you truly do, or what will fate unfold in this situation?
  When Duì meets Kūn, there is the image of a lake or swamp in the nurturing space of the earth. All kinds of vegetation and creatures arise and gather there. Duì means 'open', the main way to connect is persuasion, which requires interaction. But interaction only makes sense if one is sincere and a good listener. It is often necessary to look beyond one's own interests or to accept other's views. Without that, chaos ensues. People interact or compete or tolerate each other, but often they reject what seems unknown and form groups, causing enmity. It is a hard place with countless rules about individual and social behavior, but also the place to find a home, friends and love.

This is the short answer - click for the complete one with the spirit helpers.

  About the 3 lines of the trigrams and the spirit 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.
