Volume 4: A Brief Discussion on Zhou Yi Heng Hexagram (Xunxia Zhenshang)

Heng, Heng, no blame, Lizhen, Li has a future.

"Yi" said: Constant, long. Just up and soft down, thunder and wind together, Xun and move, rigid and soft corresponding, constant. Heng, Heng, blameless, Lizhen, long than its way also. The sky moves, rigidity and softness respond, constant. "Heng, Heng, no blame, Li Zhen", long than its way. The way of heaven and earth is eternal. "There is a future", and there is a beginning in the end. The sun and the moon can shine for a long time, the four seasons change and can be formed for a long time, and the saint can be transformed into the world for a long time in his way; Look at its permanence, and the feelings of heaven and earth can be seen.

Interpretation: Constant means long-term and long-lasting righteousness. The masculine shock hexagram is above, the feminine Xun hexagram is below, the rigid and soft is like the king and the minister, the man is the woman and the woman, this is the eternal way of society; The thunder is above, the Xunfeng is below, the thunder and wind help each other, and at this time the natural world is a permanent phenomenon; Xun humility, thunder action, humility to action, at this time for people to do things for the eternal way. The beginning of the six lines and the fourth, the second and the fifth, and the third and the upper all have yin and yang echoes, so they can be eternal and unchanging.

If the way of perseverance can be prosperous, there is no blame; If you can't prosper and be blamed, it's not a sustainable way. The way of perseverance must be upright and self-disciplined in order to be beneficial. The way of perseverance is not to keep a corner and do not know how to change, there is an end will be a new beginning, there is a past to be beneficial to be permanent,

The sun and the moon conform to the way of heaven so they can shine on all things eternally, the four seasons change so they can achieve all things eternally, and the saints can eternally conform to the way of heaven so they can make the world succeed. Observe this eternal condition, and thus the condition of all things in heaven and earth can be known.

"Elephant" said: thunderstorm, constant; It is not easy for a gentleman to stand.

Interpretation: Fang, the reason is not easy. Xun's nature is inside, thunder is moving outside, and thunder winds are changing without losing their normality. A gentleman must find the unchanging constancy from the constant change.

On the sixth day of the first month, Jun Heng, chaste and fierce, no profit.

"Elephant" said: Jun Heng's fierceness, the beginning of the deep.

Interpretation: Jun, deep. The foundation of the sixth year of the first month is not solid, and you must not seek the constant path at the beginning, otherwise there will be no profit from the evil.

Ninety-two, repentance.

"Elephant" said: Ninety-two regrets can last a long time.

Interpretation: Ninety-two must be constantly changing before he can repent.

Ninety-three, not perpetuating its virtue, or taking advantage of it, chastity.

"Elephant" said: If you don't perpetuate your virtue, you can't tolerate anything.

Interpretation: Ninety-three must "persevere in its virtue", otherwise there will be shame and nothing to be allowed to do if it is not changed.

Ninety-four, there is no poultry in the field.

"Elephant" said: It has been out of place for a long time, and it is also a bird.

Interpretation: Tian, Tongyi, hunting. Birds, in ancient times, were a general term for birds and animals. Ninety-four is always in an improper position, and it is in vain, like hunting without being captured.

Sixty-five, constant virtue, chastity. The woman is auspicious, and the father and son are fierce.

"Elephant" says: The woman is Zhenji, from the beginning to the end; Father and son are righteous, and women are also murderous.

Interpretation: Righteousness, sanction affairs. Sixty-five is auspicious for a woman, multiplying yin by yang from one to the end. If you are a man, you should take charge of the matter and judge the matter, otherwise it will be dangerous to follow the woman.

On the sixth, Zhenheng, fierce.

"Elephant" said: Zhenheng is on top, and there is no work.

Interpretation: The first six shocks are impermanent and unpermanent, and the labor is useless, so it is fierce.
