What this change means
The second, third and top lines move, so Wind settles below and Thunder sounds above. Thunder and wind, a pairing that endures. The starting hexagram's advance is quick and bright, full of help, recognition and open doors. The resulting hexagram, 32 What Lasts, asks for action, not stillness, guided by clear goals you keep heading toward; that is how achievements grow and last. Held in balance, they ask you to turn a favorable moment into something durable. Don't spend the light on scattered efforts. Decide what you're aiming at and act in line with it, consistently, using the help that arrives to build on the same foundation. Watch for chasing every new door just because it opens. Staying on course is less exciting than a fresh start, but it's what lets this advance endure.
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 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.
- The judgment of 32 What Lasts
This moment asks you for action, not stillness. It asks you to have clear goals to head toward and to act in line with them. That way you'll achieve things, and your achievements will keep growing and will last.
Success. No fault. Constancy is favorable. It is favorable to have somewhere to go.
- Line 2 of 35 Advance
Even if at first you don't get help from the person you asked, don't be sad. Stay open and keep at it, and that same person will give you the help you need and deserve.
Advancing, and grieving. Constancy brings good fortune. This great blessing is received from their grandmother.
- Line 3 of 35 Advance
You move forward together, with the support of others, and they'll back you in the areas where you find it hard to advance.
All agree. Regret vanishes.
- Line 6 of 35 Advance
Make sure your advance doesn't run over other people. It's fine to clear the obstacles from your path, but without hurting anyone.
Advancing with the horns. Fit only for punishing one's own city. Danger, good fortune, no fault. Constancy brings distress.
