The Book of Changessixty-twoThe hexagram represents the phenomenon of thunder moving up and the earth moving down, symbolizing the stillness of the mountain.

Hexagram revelation:The mountain is calm yet thunderous, and the combination of firmness and softness hides wisdom in dealing with the world. The thunder of the upper hexagram symbolizes the spirit of progress, while the Gen Mountain of the lower hexagram represents the virtue of stopping stagnation. The two blend together to formThe balance of 'stillness in motion, retreat in progress'. Like birds flying over mountains with slightly lower wings, boats crossing canyons with slightly slower oars, maintaining moderate flexibility in subtle details while following the main path. Enterprising is not reckless, and when breaking through conventions, one must grasp the balance; Adhering to righteousness is not stubbornness. When following etiquette and laws, one should leave room for adjustment, uphold righteousness, and move forward with caution.

Haste makes waste, small gains make waste.
