Hexagram Name:
Meng Hexagram [Middling to Inauspicious Hexagram] Enlightenment and Striving
Image Interpretation:
The line images in the hexagram indicate minor losses; when a gentleman divines with this hexagram, his fortune is not high. There will be trivial troubles in marriage and partnerships, and doing things will surely involve hardship and toil. This hexagram is an overlap of different trigrams (Kan below and Gen above). Gen represents the image of a mountain, symbolizing stopping; Kan represents the image of water, symbolizing danger. The hexagram form shows danger under the mountain, yet one does not stop moving forward, which signifies ignorance and obtuseness, hence the name "Meng Hexagram". However, because one grasps the opportunity and acts in accordance with the times, it embodies the hexagram image of enlightenment and smooth progress.
Career:
At the start of a career, things are chaotic and disorderly, with crises lurking everywhere. A brave and resolute action can turn the situation around. Nevertheless, one must receive strict education to cultivate this spirit of striving for progress. It is essential to be down-to-earth and avoid aiming too high and overreaching, otherwise, one will fall into a state of isolation and helplessness.

卦名:
蒙卦【中下卦】启蒙奋发
象曰
卦中爻象犯小耗，君子占之运不高，婚姻合伙有琐碎，做事必然受苦劳。 这个卦是异卦（下坎上艮 ）相叠，艮是山的形象，喻止；坎是水的形象，喻险。卦形为山下有险，仍不停止前进，是为蒙昧，故称蒙卦。但因把握时机，行动切合时宜，因此，具有启蒙和通达的卦象。
事业
事业开始，混乱无序，危机四伏，以勇敢坚毅的行动可以扭转局面。然而必须接受严格教育，培养这种奋发图强的精神。务必脚踏实地，最忌好高骛远，否则会陷入孤立无援的境地。
经商

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.
