What this change means
The lower two lines move, and the Heaven at the base settles into Mountain, with fire burning above it. The second line leads: you have the means, the ability to enjoy them, and the people to make them grow, like a great cart loaded for a journey. The first line keeps that journey grounded: wealth is still young, obstacles can appear, and simplicity and a straight path keep you moving. The resulting hexagram is 56 The Traveler, a time of small achievements and changing ground. So your resources may be taking you somewhere new: a different place, a new field, unfamiliar people. Travel light even with a full cart. Hold possessions and plans loosely, adapt to new conditions, and be gracious with strangers. Avoid the showy or careless moves that attract trouble on the road. Modest steps, taken with clear sight, tend to carry you safely to the next stop.
What to read, in order
Marked ● is what Zhu Xi's tradition puts at the center for this number of moving lines.
- Line 2 of 14 Wealth
Not only can you have wealth, you also have the capacity to enjoy it and to surround yourself with the right people to make it grow.
A great cart for carrying. There is somewhere to go. No fault.
- Line 1 of 14 Wealth
It's the early stage of wealth, and obstacles may arise. If you stay on the straight path and act simply, you'll keep moving forward.
No dealings with what harms; not a fault. Mindful of hardship, no fault.
- The judgment of 14 Wealth
A time of abundance and prosperity, both inner and outer. It's important to keep your character centered and to cultivate good deeds and generosity, so that this wealth lasts and reaches others.
Great success.
- The judgment of 56 The Traveler
It's a time of small achievements. Keep a light, flexible attitude. You may be facing a period of change, new places or situations that ask you to adapt while they settle: let go of attachments and be gracious as you make new connections and your situation takes hold.
Small success. For the traveler, constancy brings good fortune.
