Explanation of each trait
explanation of the hexagram features from bottom to top
The previous situation of integrity is the time when a person develops his best qualities and accumulates his merits. If it is carried out correctly, then a person can acquire enormous moral strength. They, in fact, are the great ones who can further educate. But these great moral forces also require a great object of their action. This object must be so broad that it is possible to go beyond just the personal. Therefore, the most important thing in this situation is to get out of your narrow sphere. In the previous situation, a certain synthesis of what was known and what was being known again had already been achieved. But if a person turned this synthesis only to his own benefit, then it would only indicate the overcoming of his vices. Here one must act in such a way that this action extends to other people, only then can it be called great. From this side, we can say that what is meant here is not only great upbringing, but great upbringing. Therefore, in the text we see the following: Raising greatness. Favorable fortitude. Feed not only from your home. Happiness. The ford across the great river is favorable.
The main danger that a person in this position may face is to continue to work further and further on accumulating his moral virtues, for his own sake. This is especially noticeable in the first position, because it characterizes a person’s presence in the very depths of his inner life. The greatest danger here is to remain within yourself and not reach out to the people around you. But this must be stopped; only then can positive results be achieved. In the text we read: In the beginning there is a strong line. There will be danger. It is favorable to stop [your activities].
If the first position is only the beginning of the process in its internal development, then the second position is the maximum development of the process. But in this situation, this is just superfluous, because for the inner life everything was done in the previous situation. Therefore, persistent stay in it only leads to helplessness. To remain only within oneself would mean not to move forward. The Book of Changes expresses this in a brief but telling way: The strong trait comes second. The spokes of the cart fell out.
The third position, usually indicating a way out from the inner life to external activity, is in perfect harmony with the general meaning of this hexagram. Usually the third position is a position of crisis, and in most cases in the “Book of Changes” we find very strict warning aphorisms on it. However, here, where the exit to the outside, which characterizes the third position, is harmoniously combined with the exit to the outside, necessary within the meaning of this situation as a whole, it is something favorable, in its own way harmonizing with the entire hexagram. Therefore, in the text we find: The strong trait is in third place. A chase on a good horse. Fortitude is beneficial in times of difficulty. And so, if you practice using war chariots, then it is favorable to have somewhere to go.
All this situation predisposed to activities outside. Therefore, this external activity is constantly emphasized by soothing images. Even if it did pose some kind of danger, then the “Book of Changes” hastens to warn that here, in the situation of raising a great one, the danger of acting outside does not exist, it can only seem. In order to understand the image in which this idea is encrypted in our monument, we must remember that in ancient China there was a custom: in order to make the horns of a bull safe, they put a specially arranged board on its horns. The Book of Changes does not even talk about the bull here. She is talking about a calf, which is not scary even without a protective board, especially since it is something completely safe if a protective board is put on it. Therefore, in the text, which is not without wit, we read: The weak point is in fourth place. Calf protection board. Original happiness.
The upper trigram, symbolizing the external, in turn is divided into two types of traits: the first - the fourth and sixth traits, which, being external, characterize only the external side of the activity on the outside, and the other type - the fifth trait, which characterize the internal side of the same activity on the outside. Therefore, in order to again emphasize here the safety of action outside, a slightly different image has been chosen. If horns can be understood as something sticking out, then a fang can be understood more as a weapon hidden inside the animal. That's why we talk about fangs here. But to emphasize the safety of these tusks, the Book of Changes speaks of an emasculated boar. If a boar can be terrible, then an emasculated boar is devoid of rage. That is why in the text we find the image: The weak point is in fifth place. The tusks of an emasculated boar are happiness.
In the previous position, everything that is achievable in a given situation can be achieved, and the sixth position is only a redevelopment. If the entire hexagram is characterized by an exit to the outside, then an excessive continuation of such an exit to the outside would, strictly speaking, be an exit to the sky, but there are no roads there. Therefore, only the further development of those paths that were already outlined in the previous one, and those paths that are outlined in the next hexagram - the 27th, is assumed. Therefore, in the text we find: There is a strong line at the top. What roads could there be in the sky?! Development.
The symbol indicates some lull in your life. Don't waste your energy, take a break, don't rush things.
Do not waste your energy on trifles, be in full readiness, soon your strength will find more useful application. Just try to go with the flow for now and wait for this pause to end.
Don't try to rush things, you'll probably get the opposite result.
Your desires will come true if they are realistically feasible and you have not raised the bar of desires too high. People around you who are already familiar with similar problems and have similar experience will help you correct the situation.

What roads could there be in the sky?!
“I Ching”: “Creativity. The original accomplishment."
INTERPRETATION OF THE HEXAGRAM
Both in manifested reality and in the subconscious, the sky is everywhere. The sky is a symbol that personifies God himself. God is everywhere! Double creativity, double original fulfillment with a divine spark within. This is the beginning of a great deed. This is pure divine potential on a manifest and subconscious level. YANG POWER is the original energy of the creator in its pure form. Active creative force corresponding to the masculine principle. The situation for accomplishments is simply fabulous (God is everywhere) and at the same time absolutely meaningless: God needs to create for someone, but he is not here. Creativity and any achievements are not in demand if there is no one to perceive them, no one to give them to. This is a loop, this is a dead end. Here creativity replaces creativity, heaven replaces heaven, God replaces God. There can be no further development in this direction, since all this is already maximally manifested. Life will die without change, so there will definitely be change. Only the development of the situation will go exactly in the opposite direction, towards increasing the female vibrations of the YIN POWER, towards perception and following.
Everything is possible here if you can find someone who really needs it. Maybe this someone is you? It is necessary to find an area for application of such powerful creative potential, otherwise the situation will be lost.
This is a situation when you need to show the maximum of male vibration - all the power of Yang, but the result of achievements should be the manifestation of powerful Yin energy.
(OPPOSITE VIBRATION)
Here the opposite vibration is dominant! That is, the development of the situation will go towards strengthening the POWER OF YIN. This always happens when some property is overly manifested. The powerful creative energy Yang needs, like air, the no less powerful Yin.
From the treatise “Neijing”: Heaven is the substance of yang, and earth is the substance of yin. The Sun is a yang substance and the Moon is a yin substance. The yin substance is peace, and the yang substance is mobility. The yang substance gives birth, and the yin substance nurtures.
Which path the game “Your Life” will take next largely depends on you, on your position in this situation.
Positions for awareness:
1. Don’t let anyone lead you, always lead and guide others, and don’t follow anyone yourself. If you allow yourself to be controlled, you will lose yourself!
2. The fastest degradation is the desire to live under the guidance of one’s own mind, that is, under the guidance of one’s ego.
3. Yang energy, masculine energy is the primary energy of creation. It is not for nothing that God, the creator, is active yang energy. In the Book of Changes, yang is more correlated with light, yin with darkness.
4. God and creative energy are more aligned with the feminine yin energy, according to many tantric texts and the teachings of the Pleiades.
5. Yang and yin, male and female energies are different manifestations of the single energy of the creator. Therefore, it is completely pointless to try to compare them in order to identify any advantages of one energy over another.
6. Yang is a powerful creative, creative energy. By connecting with yin, yang loses its strength, just as “+” connecting with “-” disappears and is neutralized. There will be no nightingale songs if he is with the nightingale.
7. Yang creativity is inspired by the muse - yin energy. Without yin, no significant manifestation of yang is possible.
8. The division into yin and yang is conditional and created for understanding the processes of the Universe by the dual consciousness of man. In fact, there is not a single phenomenon in nature that can be attributed entirely to one energy. Thus, any woman in relation to her child shows many yang qualities: leader, educator, creator. Any man in relation to the Supreme, to God, to the flow of events is in a state of acceptance and following, and, therefore, directly manifests Yin vibrations.
9. “Know the masculine, but hold on to the feminine - and be a river valley to the world. If you accept the whole world, Tao will never leave you and you will become like a little child. Know the white, but stick to the black - and be an example to the world,” Lao Tzu “Tao Te Ching.”
10. “All things contain Yin and carry Yang. They mix their vital breath to create harmony,” Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching.
11. The condition for the realization of a real man is the presence of a true woman nearby!
12. In nature, natural energy exchange is as follows: a man transfers his energy to a woman, and a woman to a child. A harmonious man receives energy from the Supreme when he lovingly sends it to a woman or nature, so at these moments he not only does not feel a breakdown, but on the contrary, he is also filled with beautiful Higher energy, and that is why it is easier for a man to merge with God, with the Supreme.
13. “The weight of the world lies on men’s shoulders. If men’s shoulders refuse to bear this burden, the world slides and it is in danger of falling... We must raise men who are strong, consistent, and responsible. Otherwise, only beer, football, a sagging sofa and jokes about what is below the belt will remain in their area of interest. Women will feel this catastrophe the most... women. They will have no one to listen to, no one to hide behind, in fact, nowhere to go. And they will be brave in public, put a good face on a bad game. They will, in a word, depict the pleasure of freedom and independence. But the best friend, the priest in confession, and the tear-stained pillow will know that these women are deeply and incurably unhappy...” - Archpriest Andrei Tkachev.
14. “A woman in love with you can inspire you to heights you never even dreamed of. And she doesn't ask for anything in return. She just needs love, and this is her natural right,” Osho.
15. “A man suffers from a big inferiority complex because he cannot give birth to a child. This is one of the deepest unconscious deficiencies in a man. He knows that woman is superior because there can be nothing higher in life than the birth of life,” Osho.
16. “Love men. They really need your love, even if they never admit it. Behind every great man there is always a woman who believed in him and truly loved him.” - Bernard Shaw.
Da-chu (Raising Great): yes - big, noble, important; able to protect others; will to achieve own goal; the ability to manage your life; yang energy; chu - collect, absorb, store, hold; control, limit; care, support; tame, train or herd animals, educate, domesticate; to be trained or tamed. The hieroglyph depicts the fertile, silt-rich black soil of a river delta.
Favorable fortitude.
Feed not only from your home. Happiness.
The ford across the great river is favorable.
This is the time to put things together with a great idea. Focus on one thing and determine the main direction of your life. Focus on the main idea. Gather everything valuable from your life experiences and use it. Think of yourself as a person who raises animals or grows crops. Show tolerance and kindness. Don't stay at home or with your closest friends: the path to great achievements opens before you. Step into the flow of life with meaningful purpose. Be firm and persistent. Experience a sense of connection with the Tao every day. Cultivate moral and intellectual strength. This is a great time that will bring rich fruits.
The previous situation of integrity is the time when a person develops his best qualities and accumulates his merits.

Hexagram lines
Line 1First nine
There will be danger.
It is favorable to stop (your activities).
What you are doing now threatens you with danger. Stop. You need to figure out what's going on.
The main danger that a person in this position may face is to continue to work further and further on accumulating his moral virtues, for his own sake. This is especially noticeable in the first position, because it characterizes a person’s presence in the very depths of his inner life. The greatest danger here is to remain within yourself and not reach out to the people around you. But this must be stopped; only then can positive results be achieved.
Line 2
Nine second
The spokes of the cart fell out.
You feel helpless due to a discrepancy between internal state and developments in outside world. Stopping leads to the breakdown of connections with other people. You have to get over yourself and move on.
If the first position is only the beginning of the process in its internal development, then the second position is the maximum development of the process. But in this situation, this is just superfluous, because for the inner life everything was done in the previous situation. Therefore, persistent stay in it only leads to helplessness. To remain only within oneself would mean not to move forward.
Line 3
Nine three
A chase on a good horse.
Persistence in difficulties is favorable.
If you practice using war chariots,
It’s good to have somewhere to go.
This position, usually associated with a crisis, here has a harmonious development. You strive for a high goal that is worth the difficulties that you have to overcome. A well-designed action plan will greatly support you.
The third position, usually indicating a way out from the inner life to external activity, is in perfect harmony with the general meaning of this hexagram. Usually the third position is a position of crisis, and in most cases in the “Book of Changes” we find very strict warning aphorisms on it. However, here, where the exit to the outside, which characterizes the third position, is harmoniously combined with the exit to the outside, necessary within the meaning of this situation as a whole, it is something favorable, in its own way harmonizing with the entire hexagram.
Line 4
Six fourth
Calf protection board.
Original happiness.
The metaphor in the fourth position indicates particularly favorable conditions for action. In Ancient China, a special board was put on the points of bull horns to protect against them. A safety board for a hornless calf means there is no even imaginable danger. The way is open. You can safely implement your plan.
This whole situation is predisposed to outward activity. Therefore, this external activity is constantly emphasized by soothing images. Even if it did pose some kind of danger, then the “Book of Changes” hastens to warn that here, in the situation of raising a great one, the danger of acting outside does not exist, it can only seem. In order to understand the image in which this idea is encrypted in our monument, we must remember that in ancient China there was a custom: in order to make the horns of a bull safe, they put a specially arranged board on its horns. The “Book of Changes” does not even talk about the bull here. She is talking about a calf, which is not scary even without a protective board, especially since it is something completely safe if a protective board is put on it.
Line 5
Six fifth
The tusks of an emasculated boar.
Happiness.
The favorable situation continues. Your opponents are deprived of the opportunity to harm you.
The upper trigram, symbolizing the external, in turn is divided into two types of traits: the first - the fourth and sixth traits, which, being external, characterize only the external side of the activity on the outside, and the other type - the fifth trait, which characterize the internal side of the same activity on the outside. Therefore, in order to again emphasize here the safety of action outside, a slightly different image has been chosen. If horns can be understood as something sticking out, then a fang can be understood more as a weapon hidden inside the animal. That's why we talk about fangs here. But to emphasize the safety of these tusks, the Book of Changes speaks of an emasculated boar. If a boar can be terrible, then an emasculated boar is devoid of rage.
Line 6
Top nine
What roads can there be in Heaven?
Accomplishment.
You have gone so far in your aspirations that further, figuratively speaking, there can only be Heaven. But since there are no clearly marked roads, it is better to develop the paths already outlined in the past. This will bring success and give you enlightenment.
In the previous position, everything that is achievable in a given situation can be achieved, and the sixth position is only a redevelopment. If the entire hexagram is characterized by an exit to the outside, then an excessive continuation of such an exit to the outside would, strictly speaking, be an exit to the sky, but there are no roads there. Therefore, only the further development of those paths that were already outlined in the previous one, and those paths that are outlined in the next hexagram - the 27th, is assumed.

In the external - Stay and inviolability, in the internal - Creativity and strength. Your creativity and your strength lead to a change in the unshakable - raising the great. But such a change will be beneficial only if it is carried out by a completely wise person; it is better for an insignificant one to stop his activities.
Hayslip's interpretation
There is a “pause” in your destiny, so don’t waste your energy. Do not relax in combat readiness, wait for it to end, but do not waste your energy on trifles; soon it will find a more pleasant and useful use. Your wishes will come true if the height of their bar is set correctly and not too high. Those who have faced problems similar to yours will help you. Be patient, do not try to force the pace of events, the result may be completely opposite.
