Volume 4: A Brief Discussion on Zhou Yi's Negative Hexagram (Kunxia Qianshang)

No, it is not human, it is not conducive to the gentleman's chastity, and the big and the small come and go.

"Yi" said: "No, it is not human, it is not conducive to the gentleman's chastity, and the big and the small come", that is, heaven and earth do not communicate, and everything is not connected; If you don't hand over the top and bottom, there will be no state in the world. Yin inside and yang outside, soft inside and rigid outside, villain inside and gentleman outside. The villain is long, and the gentleman is eliminated.

Interpretation: Bandits, inhumane, heaven and earth are handed over and all things are born, all things are only the most spiritual, if you don't pay, you will not be born, and humanity will never be. The negative hexagram symbolizes that heaven and earth are closed, humanity is impassable, and the world is closed. When the world is closed, the villain advances, the gentleman retreats, and the villain is jealous of the gentleman, which is not conducive to the integrity of the gentleman.

And the yin qi of the lower kun land is inside, as if the yin comes; Shangqian Tianyang Qi is outside, just like the yang goes, the yang is big, the yin is small, so the cloud is "big and small". The weather rises, the earth qi falls, the yin and yang are contrary to each other and do not intersect, and the way of heaven is closed, so all things cannot be born and nourished smoothly.

As evidenced by personnel, the monarchs and ministers have different aspirations and disagreements, and the hearts of the people in the world are scattered and do not form a state, that is, the world is closed, and the sages are hidden.

"Elephant" said: Heaven and earth do not hand, no; A gentleman is frugal and virtuous, and he cannot be honored.

Interpretation: Heaven and earth do not intersect, yin and yang do not intersect *, at this time, the monarch and the minister are obedient, the upper and lower rebels, the government decrees are chaotic, and the villain is rampant, which is the extreme of no way. In this regard, the gentleman should appropriately restrain his virtue and not be outward, so as not to harm the villain, and he should not pursue the glory of the lord.

On the sixth day of the first month, pull out Maoru and use it as a sink; Jung-gil, hyung.

"Elephant" said: Ba Mao Zhenji, the ambition is also Junye.

Interpretation: At the time of the ninth day of the Thai hexagram, it guides the same kind of three yang yao to go up, and moves forward resolutely, so it is called "Zhengji". And when the hexagram is negated, the upper and lower levels are never connected, and the sixth day of the first month is a villain who is anxious for quick success and quick profit, and acts rashly, so he drives the three yin and the three yin like "pulling Maoru", and even the class and tends upward. The gentleman is determined to be in the way of the gentleman, insisting on uprightness, so as to obtain auspiciousness and prosperity.

Sixty-two, Bao Cheng, villain Ji, adult no Heng.

"Elephant" said: Adults are not Heng, and they are not chaotic.

Interpretation: Wrap up, include and ride Shun. Sixty-two, although he is a villain, he can still distinguish between right and wrong, know tolerance, and ride the gentleman. However, after all, it is a closed period for the villain to gain power, so it is beneficial for the villain to occupy the situation, and the adult, that is, the gentleman, must calmly bear the fate of the occlusion, and not be disturbed by the villain's momentum, in order to prosper.

Sixty-three, Bao shame.

"Elephant" said: Bao is ashamed, and the position is inappropriate.

Interpretation: Cover up shame, cover humiliation. The 63 villain is not in the middle of the yin and yang position, and wants to conspire to hurt the gentleman, but the bad luck has turned, and the desire to hurt can't, and he is self-consciously ashamed.

Ninety-fourth, there is no blame for life, and there is no blame.

"Elephant" said: There is no blame for life, and there is no ambition.

Interpretation: Destiny refers to the mandate of heaven. domain, homogeneous. Away, attached to Li. Happiness, blessing. Domain separation, refers to the same kind of three yangs and attack and be blessed. When the ninety-four gentleman is called by the mandate of heaven, he is determined to do the way for heaven and open the occlusion, and there will be no blame, and the same kind of three yangs can be blessed.

Ninety-five, Hugh no, adult auspicious; Its death is tied to the bud mulberry.

"Elephant" said: The auspiciousness of adults is also right.

Interpretation: Hugh, rest. Ninety-four began to transform into Thailand, and ninety-five entered the time of rest. and they will perish. Mulberry refers to a mulberry tree that grows in clusters, and its roots are deep. Ninety-five masculine Zhongzheng is in a respectful position, and his talent and prestige are enough to retire or not to open Thailand, and he is a virtuous and promising adult. At this time, adults always have the heart of danger, but there is the solidity of buds.

On the nineth, pour no, first no and then happy.

"Elephant" said: If you don't end up, you will pour, how can it be long.

Interpretation: When Shangjiu is at the end of the day with masculine talent, it can set things right, overturn the world situation in one fell swoop, and the chaos of sorrow and depression in the past is now the prosperity of restoring health, peace and joy. The extremes of things must be reversed, otherwise the plug will inevitably turn into Tongtai, how can there be a reason that it is always closed.
