Wealth becomes The Flame

Starting hexagram
Resulting hexagram

What this change means

A great cart, loaded and ready, with somewhere to go: the second line moves, and it describes a capacity as much as a possession. You don't only have resources; you can enjoy them and gather the right people to help them grow. This line is the center of the reading, and it's encouraging. Load the cart and set out, without guilt about having something worth carrying. When the lower Heaven becomes Fire, the figure turns into 30 The Flame, brightness doubled. Your inner sense is clear about where you're headed, and that clarity guides you. The resulting hexagram adds one more element: share your light. Generosity toward the people traveling with you tends to multiply what you've gained. So move forward with confidence, choose companions who add to the journey, and let what you carry benefit more than yourself. The way is open, and nothing here counts against you.

What to read, in order

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

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. The judgment of 30 The Flame

    There's clarity in what you do: your inner self guides you toward your goals. A generous attitude helps you, one that leads you to share your light, and this will increase your gains and achievements.

    Constancy is favorable. Success. Raising a cow brings good fortune.
