THE HEXAGRAM

 

 

 

Hexagram 46 – Sheng – Pushing Upward

 

 

Above    K’UN      THE RECEPTIVE, EARTH

Below    SUN       THE GENTLE, WIND, WOOD

 

 

The lower trigram, Sun, represents wood, and the upper, K’un, means the earth.  Linked with this is the idea that wood in the earth grows upward.  In contrast to the meaning of Chin, PROGRESS (35), this pushing upward is associated with effort, just as a plant needs energy for pushing upward through the earth.  That is why this hexagram, although it is connected with success, is associated with effort of the will.  In PROGRESS the emphasis is on expansion; PUSHING UPWARD indicates rather a vertical ascent – direct rise from obscurity and lowliness to power and influence.

 

 

THE JUDGMENT

 

PUSHING UPWARD

has supreme success. 

One must see the great man.

Fear not.

Departure toward the south

Brings good fortune.

 

The pushing upward of the good elements encounters no obstruction and is therefore accompanied by great success.  The pushing upward is made possible not by violence but by modesty and adaptability.  Since the individual is borne along by the propitiousness of the time, he advances.  He must go to see authoritative people.  He need not be afraid to do this, because success is assured.  But he must set to work, for activity (this is the meaning of "the south") brings good fortune.

 

 

THE IMAGE

 

Within the earth, wood grows: The image of PUSHING UPWARD.

Thus the superior man of devoted character

Heaps up small things

In order to achieve something high and great.

 

Adapting itself to obstacles and bending around them, wood in the earth grows upward without haste and without rest.  Thus too the superior man is devoted in character and never pauses in his progress.

 

 

 

THE LINES

 

 

 

Six at the beginning means:

Pushing upward that meets with confidence

Brings great good fortune.

 

This is the situation at the beginning of ascent.  Just as wood draws strength for its upward push from the root, which in itself is in the lowest place, so the power to rise comes from this low and obscure station.  But there is a spiritual affinity with the rulers above, and this solidarity creates the confidence needed to accomplish something.

 

 

Nine in the second place means:

If one is sincere,

It furthers one to bring even a small offering.

No blame.

 

Here a strong man is presupposed.  It is true that he does not fit in with his environment, inasmuch as he is too brusque and pays too little attention to form.  But as he is upright in character, he meets with response, and his lack of outward form does no harm.  Here uprightness is the outcome of sound qualities of character, whereas in the corresponding line of the preceding hexagram it is the result of innate humility.

 

 

Nine in the third place means:

One pushes upward into an empty city,

 

All obstructions that generally block progress fall away here.  Things proceed with remarkable ease.  Unhesitatingly one follows this road, in order to profit by one’s success.  Seen from without, everything seems to be in the best of order.  However, no promise of good fortune is added.  It is a question how long such unobstructed success can last.  But it is wise not to yield to such misgivings, because they only inhibit one’s power.  Instead, the point is to profit by the propitiousness of the time.

 

 

Six in the fourth place means:

The king offers him Mount Ch’i.

Good fortune. 

No blame.

 

Mount Ch’i is in western China, the homeland of King Wen, whose son, the Duke of Chou, added the words to the individual lines.  The pronouncement takes us back to a time when the Chou dynasty was coming into power.  At that time King Wen introduced his illustrious helpers to the god of his native mountain, and they received their places in the halls of the ancestors by the side of the ruler.  This indicates a stage in which pushing upward attains its goal.  One acquires fame in the sight of gods and men, is received into the circle of those who foster the spiritual life of the nation, and thereby attains a significance that endures beyond time.

 

 

 

 

THE MOVING HEXAGRAM

 

 

 

 

HEXAGRAM 51 – Chen – The Arousing (Shock, Thunder)

 

 

Above    CHEN     THE AROUSING, THUNDER

Below    CHEN     THE AROUSING, THUNDER

 

 

The hexagram Chen represents the eldest son, who seizes rule with energy and power.  A yang line develops below two yin lines and presses upward forcibly.  This movement is so violent that it arouses terror.  It is symbolized by thunder, which bursts forth from the earth and by its shock causes fear and trembling.

 

 

THE JUDGMENT

 

Shock brings success. 

Shock comes-oh, oh! 

Laughing words-ha, ha! 

The shock terrifies for a hundred miles,

And he does not let fall the sacrificial spoon and chalice.

 

The shock that comes from the manifestation of God within the depths of the earth makes man afraid, but this fear of God is good, for joy and merriment can follow upon it.

 

When a man has learned within his heart what fear and trembling mean, he is safeguarded against any terror produced by outside influences.  Let the thunder roll and spread terror a hundred miles around: he remains so composed and reverent in spirit that the sacrificial rite is not interrupted.  This is the spirit that must animate leaders and rulers of men – a profound inner seriousness from which all outer terrors glance off harmlessly.

 

 

THE IMAGE

 

Thunder repeated: the image of SHOCK. 

Thus in fear and trembling

The superior man sets his life in order

And examines himself.

 

The shock of continuing thunder brings fear and trembling.  The superior man is always filled with reverence at the manifestation of God; he sets his life in order and searches his heart, lest it harbor any secret opposition to the will of God.  Thus reverence is the foundation of true culture.
