The Jiji Hexagram is the 63rd Hexagram of the Book of Changes.
" Preface Biography " says that must have a good time, so it is good to receive it.
Know that something is too small or too late, be able to deal with it, and be fully prepared, then things can be under control. Immediately, it means going through hardships, accomplishing a great job, and being successful, that is, things are done successfully and the goal is reached.
First look at the hexagrams and the words.
Ji Ji: Heng Xiao, Li Zhen, Chu Ji ends chaos.
彖彖 said: It is economical and prosperous, and the small one is prosperous. Li Zhen is strong and soft. Chu Ji is so soft. Termination is chaos, and the way is poor.
彖彖彖彖 said that in the case of the economy, it means that the goal has been achieved, so you can do everything regardless of size. Utilitarianism and results can be obtained because the top and bottom correspond to each other, to maintain the right way, and the heaven and the earth correspond to all things. At the beginning, things were auspicious because of flexibility (controllability) in the middle and acting appropriately. In the end, it was chaotic. It was because the control was weakened and it was no longer possible to control things.
Jiji Hexagram is the closest to perfection in the Sixty-Four Hexagrams. Because the heaven and the earth correspond to each other, the luck is prosperous and everything can be successful. It's just that the four virtues are incomplete and the element is lacking, so there is no periodicity, and there is no recurring situation of good economics. In the hexagram, Heng Xiao is used to express, even small things can be done smoothly. Li Zhen is to maintain the right way, respond up and down, and get good results. The end of chaos refers to the loss of control of Shangliu.
look at the elephant again.
Xiang said: Water is on fire, and it is economical; gentlemen can prevent it by thinking about troubles.
The elephant said that when water is on fire, the two functions are reconciled, which is economical.The function of water is to moisturize, and the function of fire is to increase inflammation. The intersection of the two means that the functions of both are well combined and applied. The appearance is cooking food. Water and fire are originally incompatible with each other, but they work together perfectly. The successful cooking of food symbolizes that things have succeeded. Jiji means that you are done, and you are well understood. Gentlemen should be cautious and be prepared for danger in times of peace and prevent danger when things have been successful.
From the elephant’s explanation, we can see that things will be accompanied by danger when they produce results. So where does this danger come from?
In fact, it can be seen from the hexagram that, from the second line to the upper line, all have the identity of the ridge. The ridge represents the hurdle and danger, so it will be accompanied by hurdles and dangers.
This danger is embodied in the humanitarian aspect. Shown in the hexagrams and lines, it is a congruent relationship, which is caused by the influence of the people around you. Correspondence between the world and the earth, which means successful cooperation, but the harmony of humanity has brought unexpected situations.
Ji Ji Gua talks about the reconciliation of water and fire. If things cannot be reconciled, it may cause danger.
Jiji Gua elaborates the six lines from this perspective.
The ninth day: drag its wheel, push its tail, no blame.
xiang said: drag its wheel, it will be blameless.
[Explanation] Pull the wheel and wet the tail, there will be no harm.
[Interpretation] The ninth day of the month is in position, and it is in the same position as the June Fourth, which means that water and fire can be coordinated. However, the sizes of the two parties are different and need to be adjusted and matched.
The relationship between the ninth day of the ninth day and June 4th can be described as a drop in the bucket. Although June 4th belongs to the hurdles, it is not the main line. The water is naturally low. The ninth day is a resource away from the fire, which is equivalent to firewood. The power of water cannot match fire, so in order to deal with the imminent danger, there are two methods, one is to reduce the amount of firewood, and the other is to wet the firewood to prevent it from burning violently.
So here, pulling the wheel is to reduce the amount of firewood, and to get the firewood wet. This tail refers to the ninth day. Because compared to Lihuo,The ninety-three function is equivalent to the momentum of fire, and the nineth day of the fuel resource is the end.
If you only indulge in the literal meaning, thinking that the tail refers to the fox’s tail, you don’t understand the deep meaning. The lines of each line are metaphors around how to control the relationship between water and fire.
Sixty-two: If a woman loses her child, don't chase, get it in seven days.
Xiang said: It is obtained in seven days, and it is also in the middle.
[Explanation] The lady has lost her close-fitting clothes, don’t worry about looking for it, you will get a better one in seven days.
[Interpretation] 六二 was the next line of the cross, which was restrained by the ninety-three, and her clothes and towels were also taken by the ninety-three. The purpose is to seduce Liu Er. However, Liu Er is in the middle of the position and has a response, which means that he can keep the right way and will not succumb. So I won't ask Jiu San for more. Jiu San will naturally return it. Responsible means that the goal will be achieved without deliberately pursuing it. This is a gift from heaven.
If the situation of 62 is mapped to things in real life, 62 is like a company employee, capable of working, and her boss Jiu San has intentions against her and deliberately makes things difficult. However, June 2 corresponds to the 9th Five-Year Plan, and her background is supported by the company's CEO, but Jiu-San had to give up in the end.
The root of the danger of 63 lies in the next barriers, how did the barriers form? It is the combination of June 2 and September 3, and June 4, which is reflected in real life, that is, June 3’s interpersonal relationship contains this kind of danger. This is the humanitarian aspect. The correspondence between Sixty Two and Nine Fifth is a relationship of Heaven and Dao.
Ninety three: Gaozong cuts the ghost prescription, three years to overcome it, the villain should not use it.
xiang said: Three years of grammar, fatigue.
[Explanation] It took Gaozong three years to successfully conquer the ghost kingdom. At this time, we must guard against the villains to steal the fruits of victory.
[Interpretation] Jiu San is in power, there is a response, and the goal will be achieved (conquer the enemy country). The villain refers to June 4th, although June 4th is dependent on September 3 (the attribute of mutual hurdles),On the surface, they are very close to the ninety-three, but June 4th is the main control line of mutual separation. The characteristic of lien is to consume resources and transform it into successful use, which is to transform the achievements of the ninety-three to the ninth five-year plan, which is equivalent to stealing.
From the perspective of the hexagram image, Jiu San has the function of xiali, but at the same time it is a resource of mutual separation. It has its own barriers, which represents power and power. In combination, the power of the nineteenth four can obtain merits and be stolen at the same time.
The little elephant said, tired. The fatigue mentioned by Jiu San, from the perspective of the hexagram image, is a reconciliation problem. Jiu San is the function of Lihuo, which means that the fire has been completed, and the corresponding Shang Liu is The water is weak, and if you use weak water and strong fire to reconcile, the water is in danger of being boiled dry, and you need to constantly add water, which causes repetition of things and is not thankful. Because of the corresponding reason of heaven and earth, the thing was finally successful, but it took a lot of energy. This tired one should be on the sixth.
June 4th: You have clothes and coats, so you can abstain all day long.
Xiang said: Quit all day long, even if you have doubts.
[Explanation] Although sailing on the water is very smooth, you must be prepared to stop leaks and torn clothes and be vigilant at all times.
[Interpretation] June 4th has mutual hurdles, mutual separation, and hurdle identities. At the same time, it serves the ninth and ninth five-years, which is equivalent to pedaling two boats, and accidents will happen at any time.
From the perspective of the hexagram, June Fourth corresponds to the ninth day of the ninth day, which means that the resources that can be separated from the fire can be controlled, which is equivalent to regulating the fire. June Fourth can also transform the ninety three to the ninety five, which is equivalent to using the fire. The biggest function, which means that there are many things that June 4th can do, and they are all dealing with people. The ninety-three, as the function of the fire, has the characteristic of violentness, and the ninety-five, as the main line of the upper ridge, has the characteristic of blackness. It spins in six weeks, like taking millet from the fire, which is naturally dangerous.
The Ninth Five-Year Plan: Killing cattle in the east is not as good as the sacrifice to the west, which is really blessed.
The elephant said: It is better to kill cattle in the east as it was in the west; if it is really blessed, good luck will come.
[Explanation] Killing cattle in the east,To prepare a generous gift, it is better to use a thin offering for sacrifices in the west neighbor, because it is really blessed by the heavens.
[Interpretation] The east side refers to June 4th. The June 4th control Lihuo can make the 9th Five-Year to get the power of Lihuo; but the 9th Five-Year is in the middle, which corresponds to the 62nd. This is the right way. two. Blessed can be by keeping the right way. Correspondence is the gift of the will of heaven and earth, and harmony is the pursuit of humanity. Comparing the two, of course, the blessing of the will of heaven and earth is delightful.
uses real life things as a metaphor for this line. Nine-Five is like the boss of a company. Sixty-two is like a diligent employee. June 4th is like the people around you. People around you can give the boss considerable benefits, but its role is not as good as those of dedicated staff.
Last six: In the first place, Li.
xiang said: How long is it to make the first effort.
[Explanation] I want to use a small amount of water to suppress the momentum of the fire. This is too dangerous.
[Interpretation] The upper six is in position, corresponding to ninety-three, and heaven and earth correspond to each other, which means that water and fire can intersect each other. Reflected in reality, it means that both parties are willing to work together. However, the size of the two partners is very different. Therefore, it is dangerous.
From the perspective of the hexagram, the upper six corresponds to the ninety-three, so the upper six directly faces the function of leaving the fire, while the upper six is not in the middle, and its own control is insufficient. This is equivalent to the direct confrontation of water and fire, and the fire is fierce. The water is weak and difficult to reconcile, and the water tends to be burned dry. In order to be able to achieve the goal, the sixth requires continuous investment, resulting in repeated actions.
濡 its first, the actual original meaning should be to use weak moisture to cover the momentum of the fire, not for long.濡, the meaning of infiltration, this is a metaphor for less water.
[Summary] The Jiji hexagram is about the harmony of water and fire, the harmony is successful, and it symbolizes the success of things and the achievement of goals. The reconciliation of water and fire pays attention to a kind of timing. Intervention before the fire has become a major trend. This is the ideal time. If the fire has already reached the momentum and the power of water cannot keep up, it will be very laborious.
Looking at the whole hexagram,In fact, they are all explained around how water and fire are reconciled, and various metaphors may be used.
the end of the ninth day of the ninth day, this tail refers to the tail of the ninth day of the fire, that is, the lower ninth day of the fire. It is not easy to burst due to water infiltration.
上六濡 its head, this head refers to the top ninety-three from the fire. At this time, the fire has become a trend, the momentum is strong, and the water is almost dry. It's like cooking the food with too much heat and the water is boiled dry.
The above hexagrams are acting as the leading role, the hurdle is the main control at the level of wisdom, and the liberating represents the result of practice. If the two are properly blended, you can achieve great success. Improper reconciliation is the most dangerous.
In the Book of Changes, the combination of water and fire is actually a description of how to adjust the functions of water and fire, and make reasonable arrangements according to the characteristics of water and fire to achieve harmony, so that things can succeed.
In our lives, we generally use water to temper fire, because it is easier to control water than to control fire. So water is dominant. Water in the upper hexagram is more auspicious, which means that water can easily control fire. When the water is in the hexagram, it is difficult, and it is very hard to do things. This is also very consistent with the situation in life, as fire fighting is like this.
Here you can compare the and Zehuoge hexagrams.
Ze and Kan both represent water, but there is a difference. Kan, contains the characteristics of danger, so the combination of Kanshui and Lihuo, if the reconciliation is not successful, there will be difficulties and dangers.
Ze, which contains the characteristic of joy, is to do what you like. Therefore, the combination of Zeshui and Lihuo failed to reconcile. There will be no danger.
