Wealth becomes Advance

What this change means

The sun rises over the earth as the whole lower trigram moves, and Heaven beneath the fire becomes Earth. Weigh two judgments here. 14 Wealth describes abundance inside and out, sustained by a centered character, good deeds and generosity so that it lasts and reaches others. 35 Advance describes a time of growth and achievement, with help and favors coming from people of influence, and doors opening when you ask. In balance, your prosperity is a platform for progress. Don't be shy about requesting what you need, since your talents are visible and appreciated now. At the same time, the generosity at the core of wealth applies here as well: as help reaches you, pass it on, and contribute to others' growth. Let your conduct speak more brightly than your possessions. Rising this way tends to bring others up with you.

What to read, in order

Marked ● is what Zhu Xi's tradition puts at the center for this number of moving lines.

  1. 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.

  2. The judgment of 35 Advance

    A time of growth and achievement is coming, and you should make the most of it. You'll receive help and favors from important people. If you need something, don't hesitate to ask: doors will open for you. Your talents are recognized, and just as you receive help, it's also a time to contribute to the growth and betterment of others.

    The lord of Kang is granted horses in great numbers; in a single day he is received three times.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. Line 3 of 14 Wealth

    Greed, or using wealth only for your own benefit, will bring difficulties and loss. Generosity opens new possibilities.
