Hexagram 22

By James Byrd

I.The Oracle 

A. Hexagram 22 is Bi or Adorning. Further variations include Grace and Luzxuriance. The lower trigram is Li: radiance or fire, and the upper trigram is Gen: bound or mountain.    

B. The Judgment

   1. Grace has success.
   2. In small matters
       It is favorable to undertake something.

C. The Image

  1. Fire at the foot of the mountain:
      The image of Grace.
  2. Thus the superior man proceeds 
      When clearing up current affairs.
       But he dare not decide controversial issues in this way.
           

II. My interpretation 

A. "Luxuriance"

“The orator, he has the ear of the people provided, content, the end goal, behavioral temperaments, within a range of days/years are consistent with the image the orator wants to project.”

Hexagram 18

 

by James Byrd

I. The Oracle 

A. Hexagram eighteen is related directly with Decay. Another variation is The idea of Fixing or working on that which is decaying or on that which is spoiled, or we can say, when a sailboat is not out at sea, work on the sails because due to the weather over time the sails will, rot or decay:

   1. Work on what has been spoiled, this is a sign of supreme success. It furthers one to cross the great water. Follow through with your large plans at this time, now is the time; Before the starting point, three days. After the starting point, three days
   2. Supreme Success

B. The Image

  1. The wind blows low on the mountain
      a) The image of Decay
      b) Thus the superior man stirs up the people, this strengthens their spirit.

II. My interpretation 

A. Work on that which is spoiled has something to do with a person's character (heredity and/or psychological traits) which has run aground from that of the norm. This can be seen in how that person might treat his fellow man, that is, in terms of respect. If a person senses this happening within their persona it is time to pull back and fix the internal workings of their personality. One word, meditation, that would be the keyword if one wanted to create a better reflection of their subconscious.

   1. Now is the perfect time to cross the great river, in plain words, it is time to follow through with those long term strategic plans. Pay close attention to the three days before, and three days after the starting point, which is now. The picture I gathered today was while clearing a flowerpot of old dead annual plants, there was a perennial seedling sprouting up. So with that image, we can see after clearing the decayed plants away, there appear to be amounts the dead new life, renovation. Now also remember there is an implication of there being a windy day today as well. Remember, do not be over expressive, think and internalize what enunciation is appropriate to bring forth. Abuse of power is indicated.
