Today's hexagram:Heaven and earth are not（䷋）

The Book of ChangesThetwelveThe hexagram states that if heaven and earth do not connect, they will not be able to pass through.

Hexagram revelation:The original meaning of 'no' is blockage, estrangement, and obstruction. But following closely behind the Tai hexagram, the Bu hexagram implies that things are extremely smooth and easy to achieve, but easily fall into isolation due to laziness and disharmony, revealing the dialectical law of "Tai extreme does not come, and adversity brings Tai". The hexagram reminds us that when we are in a difficult situation: first, we should gather our sharpness, settle ourselves, avoid impatience and rashness, and at the same time, adhere to our bottom line. In the face of impetuous trends or unfair situations, we should not go with the flow or compromise; We should also accept dialectical transformation, not be anxious about temporary difficulties, maintain an optimistic attitude, and wait for a turning point to appear.

Whether heaven and earth are peaceful or not, all things listen in confusion.

——Song · Wu Mingyang
