What this change means
Fire shines above Heaven when four lines change, the first, second, fifth and top, and Attraction becomes 14 Wealth: a time of abundance, inner and outer. To make it last and reach others, you're asked to keep your character centered and cultivate generosity. With four lines moving, the guidance comes from the resulting hexagram's two still lines. The third warns that greed, or using wealth only for yourself, brings difficulty and loss, while generosity opens new possibilities. The fourth asks you not to let envy get the better of you: look at what you have and be grateful. That brings you back to Attraction, which welcomes people without self-interest. So share freely, don't measure yourself against others, and let gratitude rather than comparison shape how you use what you've received.
