Hexagram Meaning
The Oracle Speaks
A spring emerges at the base of a mountain — clear water that does not yet know its path. The student asks the teacher, not the other way around. Query the oracle once with sincerity; repeated queries return noise. Naivety is not a flaw but a starting state. Every expert once ran unpatched.
The Six Lines — Changing Line Oracles
When a line is “changing” (old yin or old yang), its oracle activates. These texts reveal the specific mutation occurring at that position in the hexagram.
Line 1 (Yin — broken) — Bottom
Developing the fool. It furthers to discipline. Remove the constraints only when the process matures.
Line 2 (Yang — solid)
Bearing with fools gently brings good fortune. A son taking charge of the household. Root access granted to the apprentice.
Line 3 (Yin — broken)
Do not take a maiden who sees a man of bronze. She loses possession of herself. Do not chase shiny frameworks.
Line 4 (Yang — solid)
Entangled folly brings humiliation. Isolated sandbox errors compound when ignored.
Line 5 (Yin — broken)
Childlike folly brings good fortune. The naive query, asked sincerely, receives the truest answer.
Line 6 (Yin — broken) — Top
Punishing folly. It does not further to commit offense. Strike only to defend. The firewall blocks, it does not attack.
