  • Inner (lower) trigram is ☱ (||: 兌 dui4) Open = (澤) swamp

  • Outer (upper) trigram is ☵ (:|: 坎 kan3) Gorge = (水) water

  • The trigrams can be read bottom to top as "With self-reflection (lake in lower) comes control(water in upper)" ('self-reflection' covers both the mental exercise as well as the physical exercise that includes the notion of copying, replicating etc and covers the association of sex etc with the trigram)



I Ching




The following material is drawn from analysis of the binary sequence of the hexagrams where the hexagrams are derived from recursion of yin/yang and so showing a property of the method - the hexagrams are all linked together and contribute to the expression of, the description of, each hexagram.

  • The skeletal form of hexagram 60 is described by analogy to the under-exaggerated properties of hexagram 59 where we have a generic focus on making things 'clear', dispel illusions etc. This vague form leads us into the focus of 60 on setting of standards, standardisation, and so forms of limitations but 'useful', beneficial to the collective.
