Book of Changes

Chapter 32 Salty Hexagram No.30-[-]
Lower Gen Shangdui
"Problem Solving"

The hexagram "Cheng" is also called "Zeshan Cheng".

"Xu Gua Zhuan" said: "There are heaven and earth, and then there are all things. There are all things, and then there are men and women. There are men and women, and then there are couples. There are couples, and then there are fathers and sons. There are fathers and sons, and then there are monarchs. There is up and down, and then there are mistakes in etiquette and righteousness." The union of heaven and earth produces all things, and the union of men and women produces husband and wife. "Li" means attachment, that is, combination; "cheng" means mutual gratification, which is the basis for the combination.Therefore, the hexagram "Xian" closely follows the hexagram "Li".This kind of inheritance can also be explained that men and women first met and then found a common feeling.

Xian, the original intention is to eliminate (beheaded) and become salty.Like "li", it is also a double-meaning word, which is both hatred and liking (with gusto).The choice of this word to express love and marriage relationship is excellent.

The "Book of Changes" in the "Book of Changes" begins with a couple with the origin of human relations, and uses the relationship between men and women to explain the law of induction.Men and women move each other with sincerity, and then tie the knot.This process applies to all relationships and every step of our lives.

"original"

"彖" said: "Salty", feeling also.Soft up and firm down, the two qi are in harmony with each other, stop talking.A man gives birth to a woman, so "Heng, Lizhen, take a girl".Heaven and earth are touched and all things are born, saints are touched and the world is peaceful.Look at its feelings, and the feelings of everything in the world can be seen.

"Translation"

"Tuanci" said: "Xian" hexagram symbolizes the bond of heart and soul.Femininity is at the top and masculinity is at the bottom, Yin and Yang interact with each other and get along harmoniously.Young men lower their attitudes in pursuit of innocent girls, because "prosperity is conducive to sticking to the right way. Marrying a wife is auspicious."The yin and yang qi between the heaven and the earth interact with each other, and all things can multiply and grow; the saints influence people's hearts with their virtues, so the world is harmonious and stable.By observing these induced changes, one can communicate with the emotions of all things in the world.

"original"

"Xiang" said: "There is luster on the mountain, "Salty".A gentleman accepts others with nothing. "Salty its thumb", the ambition is outside.Although it is "fierce; auspicious", it does not harm if it is smooth. There is no place to "salt its shares"; the ambition is to "follow" people, and it is also "attached". "Zhenji regrets death" is not hurt; "Salty its root", Zhi Mo also. "Xianqifu, cheeks, and tongue", Tengkou said.

"Translation"

"Xiang Ci" says: There are lakes on the mountain, which is the image of the hexagram "Cheng".From this, a gentleman realizes that he must accept others with a spirit of humility.

(The sixth line of the first day) "Touch the toes, and there is a feeling", which means that both of them expressed their desire to find a partner.

([-]-[-] line) "It's dangerous; if you stop for a while, it's auspicious", which means obeying his will so that things won't get messed up.

(Ninth third line) "Touch the thigh and feel it", and I don't want to stop.Although others have expressed their willingness to "follow" you, it is too indecent for you to "hold hands" like this.

(Ninth and fourth line) "Holding uprightness will bring good luck, and the resentment in the heart will disappear at once", which means that the other party feels safe. "The heart is swaying and going back and forth" means that love has not yet borne the fruit of marriage.

(Ninth Five Lines) "Touch the back, and there is a feeling", which shows that the affection has been fully expressed.

(Upper Sixth Line) "Touch the nose, cheeks, and tongue, and there is a feeling", the language is already redundant.
