Inner Peace becomes The Tribe
What this change means
Fire forms below and Wind above as four lines move: wind coming out of fire, warmth spreading through a household. The resulting hexagram's unchanging lines carry the reading. The first says that when the rules are clear and everyone does their part, there's progress. The fifth says a balanced inner attitude gives you control over situations and helps others move forward. The resulting hexagram, 37 The Tribe, describes right relationships, with everyone in their place and fulfilling their role, and words that match actions so they ring true. Here your inner peace becomes the center of a small world. Set clear expectations with the people closest to you, do your own part fully, and let your steadiness be what holds the group together when tensions or doubts appear.
What to read, in order
Marked ● is what Zhu Xi's tradition puts at the center for this number of moving lines.
- Line 1 of 37 The Tribe, which stays still
If the rules are clear and everyone does their part, there will be progress.
The house is fenced in. Regret vanishes.
- Line 5 of 37 The Tribe, which stays still
A balanced inner attitude will give you control over situations and help others make progress.
The king comes to his house. Do not worry. Good fortune.
- The judgment of 58 Inner Peace
You're in a time of calm and inner peace that lets you achieve great things. Spending time with people whose energy is like yours will nourish and recharge you to reach your aims. Still, don't lose sight of your goals, or you'll slide into inertia.
Success. Constancy is favorable.
- Line 2 of 58 Inner Peace
Take great care over whom you spend time with and what activities you choose, because if you let yourself be drawn into worldly things without cultivating your inner life, you'll stray from your goals.
Joy with trust. Good fortune. Regret vanishes.
- Line 3 of 58 Inner Peace
If you don't cultivate your inner strength and you let distractions carry you off, you may fall into addictions and drift from your purpose.
Joy that comes seeking. Misfortune.
- Line 4 of 58 Inner Peace
You're moving between serenity and indulgence. Indulgence leads to empty pleasure; serenity, to inner joy. That is the true path to success.
Joy that bargains, never at rest. Once the ill is set apart, there is gladness.
- Line 6 of 58 Inner Peace
If you haven't developed real inner peace, you're easy prey for shallow entertainments, which will win you over bit by bit until you lose yourself in them. Now you're only in the hands of fate; you have no control.
Joy that draws on.
- The judgment of 37 The Tribe
Right relationships, with everyone in their proper place and fully carrying out their role, will move things forward and make success last. Your words need to match your actions so they come across as genuine.
The constancy of the woman is favorable.
