What this change means
The top line wets its head: the crossing is done, and looking back or stopping in the water now is what puts you at risk. This is a period of advance, and retreating or standing still brings trouble. When the line moves, the Water above becomes Wind, and wind comes out of fire: the resulting hexagram is 37 The Tribe. It describes right relationships, everyone in their proper place and fully playing their role, which moves things forward and makes success last, with words that match actions. So the forward motion this line asks for isn't a solo dash. Keep advancing, but do it as part of a well-ordered whole. Take your place, carry your share, and make sure what you say and what you do agree. That coherence keeps the momentum going.
