While creating the chart for the hexagrams of opposites when all lines are in movement I noticed a few things that caught my interest and something to ponder when choosing a change. I’ll give a few examples


While creating the chart for the hexagrams of opposites when all lines are in movement I noticed a few things that caught my interest and something to ponder when choosing a change.

Ill give a few examples.

  If all the lines of hexagram 7, The Army, change, the new hexagram becomes Friendship.

  Hexagram 53, Development/Gradual Progress speaks about the steps towards marriage. When all the lines change we get hexagram 54, The Marrying Maiden, which is also about marriage but about the second wife

  Approach, hexagram 19 and Retreat, hexagram 33 are opposites.

  Conflict, hexagram 6, when lived out to the fullest becomes Darkness, hexagram 36. Not all these transitions are equal in arresting my attention but some are worth noting.
Another way to approach the I Ching Prescriptions is with the traditional synchronistic way by throwing the coins, reading the changes, taking the advice, and then looking at the hexagram it changed into when you receive changing lines.
