Mingyi: Benefit and be brave.
YijingMingyi Gua means that light is hurt and disasters must be civilized inside and soft outside. Don't be aggressive. It is advisable to keep a low profile. If you make enemies with others at this time, compete for strength and be competitive, and use birds as a metaphor, it is like a thousand birds fighting with a harrier and being hurt by an eagle. Let’s interpret this process in combination with the hexagrams.
First, let’s look at the hexagram of Mingyi hexagram. The words of the Book of Changes come from the hexagrams, the images are the body, and the words are the use. That is, the so-called Eight Trigrams are told with images, and the lines are told with emotions. Mingyi hexagram is Li down and Kun up, Li is fire, Kun is earth, and combined together is called earth fire Mingyi hexagram, Li is the sun, which is light, and Kun is dark. When the light enters the earth, it is covered by darkness, and cannot emit light, and the light is damaged. This is Mingyi, and the barbarians are the injuries. The second, third and fourth lines form one , Kan hexagram , Kan is the injury, and the upper hexagram Kun is the harm. The lower hexagram Li is also light, and light is hurt by Kan and Kun. At this time, you can only keep your low profile and not take any action. That is, you can say that you are not civilized but gentle, Li is civilization, Kun is gentle, and in history, the Zhou Wenwang was imprisoned, and after several difficulties, it was discovered. King Zhou ’s uncle Jizi pretended to be crazy and was saved. From the perspective of the hexagram, Kan is difficult, Kun is quiet and peaceful. In difficult times, survival is the first priority, and it is better to be quiet than to move. That is, the hexagram is about profit, hardship and chastity.
Thousand Birds Fighting Harrier. That is to say, thousands of birds and hawks are fighting each other. When I was in the Mingyi period, I still wanted to fight against others and fight endlessly. It's like the birds and the birds are all harriers. The kite feeds on birds. When the bird sees the kite, it is too late to escape. You go forward and fight with it. It is like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth and being eaten by a tiger. Some people may say that birds have many powers, and they use more to hit less, but when they came out of Mingyi, the power of the kite was too strong, and the birds and kite were not of the same level. That is, the so-called blood pressure. The kite is the natural enemy of the bird. It is absolutely vulnerable to confirm that the number is too large. Let’s look at the hexagrams. The lower hexagram Li is the bird, Kan is the end, and it is the gathering. The upper hexagram Kan is tens of millions, which is called tens of millions of birds. Gen is a kite, and the three, four and five lines form a Zhen hexagram, Zhen is the opposite Gen, and Zhen hexagram is the head of the kite toward the downward. Kan is the enemy, and this is when birds and kites make enemies. Li is a soldier, and Zhen is a soldier, so this is an icon of the thousand birds fighting with harriers.
was injured by the eagle. He was injured by the hawk. There are two meanings here. One is that the bird is injured by a kite, and the other is that a large bird of prey and eagle appears again, so the bird is even more on the plate. When we look at the hexagram, Gen is a harrier eagle, which is a strike, and Gen is a bird's head facing downward, Zhen is a power, Kun is a killing, and the harrier eagle kills birds with its power.
Mingyi hexagram is an image of injury, and it is difficult to survive. At this time, you have to be enemies with people, fight and fight with people everywhere. It is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, which is called concealing one's body and humiliation, and self-destruction. The result is what we performed above, the Thousand Birds Fighting Harrier was hurt by the eagle.
