What this change means
When the first and fourth lines move, Wind rises under Thunder, and Well-Being becomes 32 What Lasts. The fourth line leads. Its picture is of people coming together without riches and without suspicion, sharing what they have with their neighbors; inner wealth lets you stand by those in need, and doing so increases your own well-being. The first line adds the image of grass whose roots come up in clumps: you're not alone, and setting out with like-minded people is favored. The resulting hexagram asks you to turn these gestures into a lasting course. This moment calls for action, not stillness, with clear goals and conduct that matches them. Stand firm and don't keep changing direction. The risk to watch is generosity that flares up once and then fades. Make your support steady and your aims plain, and what you build together can keep growing.
What to read, in order
Marked ● is what Zhu Xi's tradition puts at the center for this number of moving lines.
- Line 4 of 11 Well-Being
Inner wealth lets you genuinely support people going through times of need. This will increase your well-being.
Fluttering. Not rich, with its neighbors. Not on guard, with sincere trust.
- Line 1 of 11 Well-Being
A season of flourishing: you surround yourself with like-minded people.
The grass is pulled up, and its tangled roots come too, each with its clump. Setting out brings good fortune.
- The judgment of 11 Well-Being
A period of well-being, harmony and understanding is coming, and you can enjoy it. People and situations that weren't good for you are moving away, and in their place come people and situations that bring blessings and support. Heaven grants its gifts.
The small goes, the great comes. Good fortune. Success.
- The judgment of 32 What Lasts
This moment asks you for action, not stillness. It asks you to have clear goals to head toward and to act in line with them. That way you'll achieve things, and your achievements will keep growing and will last.
Success. No fault. Constancy is favorable. It is favorable to have somewhere to go.
