This hexagram is a combination of two different trigrams (Li below, Kun above). Li represents brightness, Kun represents obedience; Li symbolizes the sun, Kun symbolizes the earth. The sun sets into the earth, its light dimmed, the future unclear, and circumstances difficult. It is advisable to bide one’s time, nourish potential in obscurity, uphold the right path, remain outwardly simple yet inwardly wise, and hide one’s brilliance to await opportunity.
Career:
In an unfavorable environment, it is advisable to handle dangerous conditions with a calm state of mind, strengthen psychological resilience, and withstand various pressures. Appear gentle and cautious on the surface, while gaining a clear insight into the principles of things in your heart. When it is time to leave, depart resolutely to avoid disasters and get out of danger. Prevent troubles before they occur and persist in striving amid adversity.
Business:
Closely observe market trends and wait for the right moment to act, but must adhere to business ethics. Even in unfavorable situations, dare to move forward boldly—especially by expanding southward, which will bring substantial gains.
Pursuit of Fame:
Keep lofty aspirations in mind, act with diligence and patience, strive amid adversity, and uphold one’s principles. Conceal intelligence without showing off; in chaos, even more so, uphold justice, and hide one’s strengths to avoid drawing attention.
Travel:
It is best not to act immediately. Wait a while longer and make thorough preparations first.
Romance:
Must comprehensively analyze the other person’s situation, not sacrifice the important for the trivial. Focus on major virtues.
Decision-Making:
In a poor state, with difficult circumstances and an unclear future. However, if one can face misfortune calmly, be flexible in advancing or retreating, the prospects will turn bright. In particular, strengthen self-cultivation, endure hardship to fulfill aspirations, remain outwardly unassuming yet inwardly wise—this can turn misfortune into blessing. If one acts cautiously and stays vigilant in all matters, greater achievements will be possible.

What is the I Ching Oracle Sticks
The
I Ching (
Book of Changes) encompasses all things and regulates all beings, standing as an outstanding representative of the traditional culture of the Han ethnicity. It is traditionally said to have been written by King Wen. The sixty-four hexagrams of the
I Ching, also referred to as "Golden Hexagram Divination" or "Coin Divination", are believed to have been created by King Wen of Zhou. It is said that divination based on these sixty-four hexagrams is highly accurate. The sixty-four hexagrams of the
I Ching, through their combinations, reflect the philosophy of life and the laws governing the operation of nature under sixty-four different specific circumstances such as things, situations, and phenomena. Each of the sixty-four hexagrams consists of six lines (yao) and line statements (yaoci), corresponding to 384 states. Through the changes brought about by these state variations, one can understand the way all things in the world operate and the philosophy of life.
