Today's hexagram:Shui Tian needs（䷄）

The Book of ChangesfiveThe hexagram states that the upper barrier (water) and lower barrier (sky) are dry, and the clouds travel in the sky, waiting for time to gather strength.

Hexagram revelation: Kan is water, symbolizing danger and collapse; Qian is heaven, symbolizing strength and vitality. The water in the sky has not yet fallen, symbolizing that risks are hanging but not yet emerging, and one should wait patiently for the opportunity with a strong and healthy character. Waiting is not a passive torment, but an inevitable process of energy accumulation. Just as the dense clouds in the sky do not disappear out of thin air, they only turn into gentle rain to nourish all things. In the absence of opportunities, modern people should maintain inner fulfillment with a dry and healthy heart, perceive changes in timing with the wisdom of water, nourish the foundation of life in waiting, and welcome the light with a calm heart. Finally able toIn the calmness of 'waiting for the right moment to surrender', we harvest the perfection of 'light, prosperity, righteousness, and good fortune', and reach the other shore of 'crossing the great river of benefits' in the current of the times.

I will mount a long wind some day and break the heavy waves, and set my cloudy sail straight and bridge the deep, deep sea.
