"Xu Gua Zhuan" said: "Speak and then disperse, so accept it as slack, and the slack will leave." "Huan" means that the ice melts and breaks, and it means to be separated. "Fake" is the ultimate.In this hexagram, the lower hexagram "kan" is water, and the upper hexagram "Xun" is wind. "Nine two" just got the middle line, "Six three" and "Six four", the two Yin lines have the same heart and one heart, so they are prosperous.When the world is separated, the king should go to the ancestral temple to pray with sincerity, and get the blessing of the gods, so that the people can see the sincerity of the king, and thus be influenced, and then reunited, it will be like crossing a big river, which is conducive to adventures and difficulties, so there is also salvation. loose meaning.Also, the upper hexagram "Xun" is wood, and the lower hexagram "Kan" is water. A wooden boat traveling on water also symbolizes that it is beneficial to cross the river, but you must stick to the right way.

"彖" says: Huan, "Heng".Just arrived but not poor, so soft that the outside is the same. "The king has a temple in his house", and the king is in it. "Benefiting across the great river" is also meritorious for taking advantage of wood.

The Huan hexagram is prosperous, because this hexagram comes from the Jian hexagram, and the "nine three" of the Jian hexagram just descends and reaches the middle of the "two" and becomes the Huan hexagram, so it will not be blocked.On the contrary, the "six two" soft line of Jian Gua rises to the rigid position of "three", and the above "six four" soft line can be of one heart and one mind. There is "Shang Tong Pian" in "Mozi", and Shang Tong is the same above.When Wang went to the ancestral temple, he said that the "Ninth Five-Year Plan" was in the middle, and he was resolute and upright.It is beneficial for crossing big rivers, which means that the upper hexagram is wood and the noon hexagram is water. Only by taking a wooden boat on the water can the effect of crossing the river be exerted.

"Xiang" said: "Feng travels on the water, Huan; the former kings built temples in order to prosper than the emperor."In this hexagram, the upper hexagram is wind, and the lower hexagram is water, and the wind blows on the water, causing the water waves to scatter.The ancient emperors, seeing this phenomenon, offered sacrifices to the emperor of heaven and built ancestral temples to gather the hearts of the people.

The sixth day of the lunar month: use the rescue horse to be strong, auspicious.

"Xiang" said: "Auspiciousness" on the sixth day of the first day is Shun Ye. The "sixth day" is just the beginning of slack, and the signs are not serious. If you use a strong horse to catch up, you can save it and turn it into auspiciousness.Moreover, the "sixth day of the first day" is weak and has no power to save the slack, so it must get a strong horse.The strong horse refers to the masculine "nine two", so "Xiang Zhuan" says that the "sixth day" is auspicious because it obeys the "nine two".

This line shows that the rescue is lax, and positive means should be used at the beginning.

Ninety-two: Huan rushes to the opportunity, regrets death.

"Xiang" said: "Huan rushes to the opportunity", and you can get your wish. "Machine" means a few, a table with short legs, sitting on the ground in ancient times, so a few are used.

"Jiu Er" Yang Yao Yin position is not correct, there should be regrets; however, "Jiu Er" is the "Jiu San" of Jian Gua coming from the outside and reaching the middle of the inner Gua, just like sitting down and leaning on a low table, To be settled, to eliminate the expected regret.

"Xiang Zhuan" said: In the moment of laxity, everyone hopes to find a safe place and be able to be stable, and "Ninety Two" fulfills this wish.

This line shows that the rescue of slack must first seek stability.Six three: Huan Qi bow.no regrets.

"Xiang" says: "Huan Qi bows", the ambition is outside. "Bow" itself here means self-interest. "Six Three" is feminine, neither neutral nor upright, and originally has a self-favorable character.However, because you are in a rigid position, you can restrain your selfishness, scatter your selfish desires, and actively make a difference, so regrets disappear. "Xiang Zhuan" said: Because the ambition of "June [-]rd" is to help people other than itself.

From this point on, the following four lines all talk about dispersing something in order to remedy the disadvantages of the time.

This line shows that salvation is lax, and selfishness must be eliminated first.June [-]th: Distract the crowd, no luck.Huan Youqiu, incredible.

"Xiang" said: "If you lose your group, there is no luck"; "Yi" means flat, which means ordinary people. The "June [-]th" yin line is in the right position, and the upper part is close to the "Ninth Five-Year" king, which is equivalent to the person who takes on the important task of saving laxity. "June [-]th" responds in the next hexagram, which symbolizes unity; that is, to unite in order to serve the public, of course it will be auspicious.The crowd is united like a hill, which is a feat unimaginable for ordinary people.

"Xiang Zhuan" said: This kind of behavior of destroying selfishness for the public is very upright.

This line shows that saving slack should promote great unity.Ninth Five: Huan Khan's big name, Huan, the king's residence, no blame.

Xiang said: "There is no blame for the king's residence", and he is in the right position.

"Xiang Zhuan" said: "There is no disaster in the palace", because the king is in the right position.

The sixth day of the lunar month: use the rescue horse to be strong, auspicious.

"Xiang" said: "Auspiciousness" on the sixth day of the first day is Shun Ye.

"Xiang Zhuan" said: The auspiciousness of the sixth day is due to the softness of the yin and the masculinity (just as the horse obeys the will of the people).

Ninety-two: Huan rushes to the opportunity, regrets death.

"Xiang" said: "Huan rushes to the opportunity", and you can get your wish.

"Xiang Zhuan" said: "Flood hits the steps." So that Jiuer can fulfill the wish of yin and yang.

Upper Nine: loosen the blood, remove the tympanum, no blame.

"Elephant" said: "Slow the blood", and it will cause far-reaching harm.

"Xiang Zhuan" said: "Bleeding and bleeding, worries and worries are eliminated", and the disaster is far away.

Comprehensive overview of Huan Gua

【Meaning】Divide and conquer—be good at dealing with scattered situations.

[Gua Yi] discrete, lax.

[Introduction] "Huan" means scattered, which means to disperse.It is considered to be the image of sailing a boat on the water, and it is an opportunity to radiate heat outward and complete a great cause.The hexagram shape means that the wind (Xun) blowing on the water surface (kan) will blow away the dead leaves and forest debris floating on the water surface, blowing away stagnation, and starting a new start, which is the best time.However, "Scattering" means the bleak future of disintegration of the people, division of the country, and family separation, so when starting out, you must first think clearly and act cautiously.Only in this way can we overcome the great crisis and achieve our goals and aspirations.

[Gua Yi] The upper hexagram Sunda is wind, and the lower hexagram Kan is water.The wind blows on the water, forming layers of water waves to separate.It symbolizes that joy makes depression and laxity, and the hexagram explains that in life and career, one must be good at dealing with lax situations.

[Structural model] Stay away from no disasters, get rid of disadvantages, eliminate factions, straighten oneself and seek peace, get good luck from the beginning, and disperse (disintegrate and separate).

[Yin and Yang] three yin and three yang.

[Position] The first line and the third line are yin and yang, and the position is not correct.The three-line and six-line yang are in the wrong position, while the four-line and five-line yin and yang are in the right position.

[Status] United and prosperous, benefiting from Dachuan.

[Hexagram Image] The upper sunda and the lower ridge symbolize gusts of wind, blowing on the water, forming layers and circles of water waves on the water surface, which gradually separate, like the layers of ripples in the heart of the river.It is a metaphor that people can dissipate the depression in their hearts through joy.

[Thinking mode] Huan Gua mainly talks about how to eliminate the problem of distracted people. The key to eliminate distracted people is to get rid of bad governance.In the principle of dealing with laxity, we must pay attention to taking countermeasures in a timely manner.Good at grasping the forces around you.Make appropriate use of external forces.Be proactive.Leaders must eradicate selfishness and start from themselves.To save laxity, we should eliminate harm and promote profit.

[Philosophical Enlightenment] In a natural phenomenon, the wind blows on the water, and the water ripples are scattered round and round.It enlightens people that mastering the principle of separation and separation can make people happy and dissipate depression in their hearts. It can also grasp the principle of divide and conquer in leadership and management to bring the scattered hearts back into unity.

[Decision-making thinking] "If you are united for a long time, you will be divided, and if you are divided for a long time, you will be united."Scattering and aggregation are also the two extremes of the development and change of objective things.This is like water that freezes into ice cubes under certain environmental conditions, and will also melt into a liquid as conditions change.In the struggle of life and career, the first thing to do is to dissolve and dissipate the worries and worries accumulated in the heart, like ice melting and snow melting, and wind and waves blowing away.In addition, in terms of social undertakings, it is necessary to create environmental conditions, enhance cohesion, restore scattered hearts, and achieve a unified and unified situation.
