Hexagram Name:
Kan Gua [Unfavorable Hexagram] Acting in Peril and Using Peril
Image Interpretation:
A bright moon shines on the water, with only its shadow visible but no trace of the real thing. A fool tries to reach down to take it as treasure, but gropes around in vain. This hexagram is formed by the overlapping of two identical trigrams (Kan below and Kan above). Kan represents water and peril; the overlapping of two Kans signifies danger upon danger, with obstacles piled up. It is like a single yang line trapped between two yin lines. Fortunately, the yin is empty and the yang is solid, so sincerity and trust can penetrate through. Though surrounded by numerous dangers and difficulties, it is precisely the time to reveal the brilliance of human nature.
Career:
You are trapped in layers of difficulties and dangers, with risks emerging one after another. You must not take reckless risks, nor should you sit idle and wait for doom. Instead, you should adopt a positive attitude, strive to create conditions, change your situation, and turn danger into safety. It is essential to be sincere and down-to-earth, full of confidence, not seeking luck by chance, and not shrinking from hardships. You should calmly observe and wait for changes, use wisdom to break through dangerous situations, and turn crisis into safety.

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.
