Hexagram Meaning

The Oracle Speaks

Fire high in heaven — it illuminates everything far and wide. Supreme success. Great possession. You hold the keys to abundant resources. A single yin line in the fifth position (the ruler's place) commands the loyalty of all five yang lines through gentle nature, not force. Share your abundance; hoarding corrupts.

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.

1

Line 1 (Yang — solid) — Bottom

No relationship with what is harmful. No blame. Staying blameless despite great wealth requires vigilance against corruption.

2

Line 2 (Yang — solid)

A big wagon for loading. One may undertake something. No blame. The infrastructure can handle the traffic.

3

Line 3 (Yang — solid)

A prince offers his wealth to the Son of Heaven. A petty man cannot do this. Only those with true power can give without losing.

4

Line 4 (Yang — solid)

He makes a difference between himself and his neighbor. No blame. Discrimination without malice — knowing your unique contribution.

5

Line 5 (Yin — broken)

He whose truth is accessible yet dignified. Good fortune. Leadership through authentic openness.

6

Line 6 (Yang — solid) — Top

He is blessed by heaven. Good fortune. Nothing that does not further. Full cosmic alignment — everything you touch succeeds. The golden build.
