What this change means
Lake joins Lake when the third, fourth and fifth lines move, turning Well-Being into 58 Inner Peace. With three lines moving, the two judgments are held in balance. Well-Being speaks of harmony and of the blessings that come as the small leaves and the great arrives. 58 Inner Peace describes a calm within that lets you accomplish a lot, especially in the company of people whose energy matches yours; they nourish and recharge you. The image is of friends studying and practicing together. So the outer peace turns inward and becomes shared joy. The warning comes at the end of the resulting hexagram: don't lose sight of your goals, or the pleasantness slides into inertia. Enjoy good company and good days, and use them. Let the ease feed your aims rather than replace them, and keep a little purpose in every gathering.
What to read, in order
Marked ● is what Zhu Xi's tradition puts at the center for this number of moving lines.
- 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 58 Inner Peace
You're in a time of calm and inner peace that lets you achieve great things. Spending time with people whose energy is like yours will nourish and recharge you to reach your aims. Still, don't lose sight of your goals, or you'll slide into inertia.
Success. Constancy is favorable.
- Line 3 of 11 Well-Being
There will be ups and downs. Don't despair: enjoy the calm moments and act with caution in the face of danger.
No plain without a slope, no going without return. Constancy in hardship: no fault. Do not grieve over its truth; in eating there is blessing.
- 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 5 of 11 Well-Being
Joining with those who are at a disadvantage compared with you, and supporting them, brings you blessings.
Emperor Yi gives his younger sister in marriage. Blessing. Great good fortune.
