The Tribe becomes Gathering with Equals

Starting hexagram
Resulting hexagram

What this change means

Enriching the house is what the fourth line is about, and it moves alone here. Tend to your own work and keep the good of everyone in view, without going too far in either spending or saving. That kind of balanced stewardship is what makes a household or a group prosper. With the upper Wind turning to Heaven, the figure becomes 13 Gathering with Equals, heaven joined with fire. The resulting hexagram widens the circle. It's a time to meet people of a nature like yours, with whom important work can be done, and relationships built on trust and mutual support start to take shape. So the care you put into your own house can reach outward now. Handle resources wisely, share the benefits fairly, and look for partners who share your values. A well-tended home becomes a good base for larger, shared projects.
