Heksagram 55 z 64 · sekwencja Króla Wena
Abundance has success. The king attains abundance. Be not sad. Be like the sun at midday. Both thunder and lightning come: the image of Abundance.
Water in motion — depth, danger, the gorge. Truth that flows through obstacles by yielding.
The flame that clings to its fuel — perception, brightness, the eye that gives form to things.
Thunder above, fire below. Both thunder and lightning come: the image of Abundance. Thus the superior person decides lawsuits and carries out punishments.
Hexagram 55 — Abundance — names a moment in which fire sits beneath water. What the I-Ching gives you here is not a prediction but a posture. It says: stand inside this configuration of forces, do not flinch from it, and act in the spirit of the image. The classical Judgment tells you what is at stake; the Image tells you what to do about it.
Apply it as a frame for the next concrete decision in front of you. If the question you brought is about action, ask whether the gesture you are considering matches the spirit of abundance. If it is about a relationship, look at the trigrams — Fire beneath Water — and ask which of those two energies you have been overplaying, and which you have been ignoring. The oracle is rarely cryptic on close reading; it is precise about what kind of person this moment is asking you to be.
Treat any changing lines as the seam where the situation is opening into its next phase. The transformed hexagram is not what will happen — it is what this one is in the process of becoming, and the changing lines are the hinges. Read them last. Read them slowly.
Jeśli pojedyncza linia zmienia się z yin na yang lub z yang na yin, heksagram staje się jednym z tych sześciu.
