Volume 4: A Brief Discussion on Zhou Yi Ding Hexagram (Xun Xia Lishang)

Ding, Yuanji, Heng.

"Yi" said: Ding, elephant also. With the wood Xun fire, Heng also cooked. The sage is blessed with God, and the tycoon is enjoyed by the sage. Xun and ears and eyes are smart, soft and then upward, and should be rigid in the middle, is to Yuan Heng.

Interpretation: Ding is a utensil for cooking food, and all raw and hard things will become soft after being cooked by Ding, so it has the effect of renewing. Ding hexagram shape, also like Ding, the first line is like a tripod foot, the second, third and fourth lines are like a tripod belly, and the fifth line is like a tripod ear; The lower hexagram is Xunmu, and the upper hexagram is away from the fire, symbolizing burning wood for cooking. The family wind comes out of the fire, and the governance is the home, and the Ding is based on the wood Xun fire, and the governance is the country, and the governance of the country is like cooking.

The sage used the tripod to cook food to worship God, and the sage used the tripod to cook food in large quantities to support the sages. The sages were raised, and they all assisted the king in a submissive manner, so that his ears and eyes could be clear. The king also ascended with suppleness, high in the middle and corresponding to the masculine sage, so that he was auspicious and prosperous from the beginning.

"Elephant" said: There is fire on the wood, Ding; The gentleman is in the right position.

Interpretation: Condensing life refers to sticking to the mission given by God. Leave is the position of listening to the government, and Xun is the mandate of heaven. A gentleman should imitate the shape of the tripod, the physique is dignified, the right position in the world, and stick to the mission given by God.

The sixth day of the first month, the toe is upside down, and the profit is not; There is no blame for having a concubine and her son.

"Like" said: Ding is upside down, not contradictory; Profit out of no, to from the expensive also.

Interpretation: upside down, repeated. Toe, refers to the first six under the tripod for the toe. No, it refers to something unclean or unwholesome. On the sixth day of the first month, under the feminine hexagram, it seems to be full of feet. Yang is real, yin is virtual, there is no physical object in the virtual main tripod, but there is a residual filth, which needs to be washed again. "Ding toe, good out of no", "toe" is to turn the tripod upside down, toe up, Xuan down, then called the hexagram; Revolutionists, using the method of change to reform the old and the new, this is a national affair. "Having a concubine and her son" refers to a family matter. In ancient times, polygamy was practiced, and the housewife was the main concubine, and the concubine followed. The housewife could not have children because of illness, and the concubine was noble because of the birth of a child, and was set up as the main room.

Ninety-two, Ding is real, I have a disease, I can't be that, Ji.

"Likeness" said: Ding is real, and he is cautious; I have a grudge, and there is no one in the end.

Interpretation: I, Ninety-Two call myself. Those who "hate" me will also harm me. Those who are "sick" are also annoyed by me. No, i.e., not being able to approach to hinder me. That is, on, close. Ninety-two has the image of food in the ding, in order to accept the new, so the ding has the truth, but its fashion has the aftermath of reform, and it must be cautious of what it does. As for those who harm me and annoy me, as long as I can keep upright, they will not be able to do anything to me in the end.

Ninety-three, Ding'er leather, its line of plugs, pheasant paste is not eaten; Fang Yu regretted his loss and was auspicious.

"Elephant" said: Ding Er Ge, lose its righteousness.

Interpretation: Ding ear leather, Ding ear falling off. Stop, stop also. Pheasant, pheasant. paste, meat. Loss, loss. Ninety-three in the yang position, the positive position, when the stability is the mainstay, can not be easily changed, otherwise, it will be like the hand of the tripod is destroyed, can no longer be lifted, the food in the tripod, can not be eaten. If there is rain in time, the heat of the fire outside the tripod is reduced, and the tripod can be moved, and the food of pheasant paste can be eaten. In this way, you can have no regrets and finally get auspicious.

Ninety-four, the tripod folds the foot, covers the public horror, and its shape is beautiful.

"Elephant" said: Cover the public and be terrified, how to believe.

Interpretation: 悚, 美馔zhuan, 鼎之地. Xingwu refers to the appearance of food overflowing and staining the body. Ninety-four is like a tripod that is difficult to bear the burden, resulting in a broken foot and a tripod, so it is fierce. He who believes in what he believes, says how he believes and uses it. Because he is incompetent, he has no self-confidence, and he has lost the trust of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

Sixty-five, Ding Huang'er Jin Xuan, Li Zhen.

"Elephant" said: Ding Huang Er, in the middle of the truth.

Interpretation: Xuan, the instrument of lifting the tripod, that is, the tripod bar. Sixty-five yellow ears Jin Xuan, the image of Dingding, is conducive to chastity and immobility, Yellow Ears in the void of Jin Xuan, Ding can be lifted and done, just like a person with a deaf ear and clear eyes, can enjoy God to raise sages with the reality of Ding.

Shangjiu, Ding Yuxuan, Daji, no disadvantage.

"Elephant" said: Jade Xuan is on top, and the rigidity and softness are also.

Interpretation: Jade, a firm and warm thing, is a metaphor for nine days to be rigid and soft. Ding Dao Guihe, on the nine to the yang of the yin, rigid and soft, just like the use of the hard and warm jade made of the tripod bar, can move in a timely manner, and make the best use of the tripod, the tripod is a great achievement, so it is auspicious and unfavorable.
