Six Lines
Line-by-line Interpretation
Line 1
01If there is no harm, there will be no blame. If there is difficulty, there will be no blame.
Guidance
Stay away from harmful things, remain humble; then there will be no disaster.
Modern Insight
This is the vigilance at the beginning of abundance. Success most fears pride and complacency, and associating with harmful friends. You must remain humble, stay away from temptation, and always remind yourself that entrepreneurship is difficult. Only then can you lay a solid foundation for your great wealth.
Line 2
02A large cart can carry it, and there is no blame for going there.
Guidance
A large cart fully loaded with goods, symbolizing smooth career progress; you can advance.
Modern Insight
Your resources are already very strong (large cart), sufficient to support you in doing anything you want. At this time, you should not just maintain, but make good use of your resources to create greater undertakings and take on greater responsibilities. Your ability is sufficient to handle it.
Line 3
03The public is prosperous in the emperor, and the villain is Fuke.
Guidance
The king shares all with the Son of Heaven; villains cannot do this.
Modern Insight
This emphasizes the wisdom of "sharing." When you have great abundance, do not monopolize. A gentleman with vision will know how to contribute his wealth and achievements to society and serve higher values. This selfless mind is what villains do not possess.
Line 4
04There is no blame for robbing others.
Guidance
Not proud or complacent, distinguish priorities; there will be no fault.
Modern Insight
You are in a position that easily attracts jealousy. The wisdom of this line lies in being low-key and not ostentatious. Hide your sharpness and wealth to avoid arousing others' covetousness and attacks. Wisely concealing strength is a form of self-protection.
Line 5
05Jue Fu Jiao Ru, Wei Ru, Ji.
Guidance
Treat others with sincerity; combine dignity with kindness; great fortune.
Modern Insight
This is the only yin line in the Da You hexagram, and also the most brilliant leader. He is in the ruler's position, yet does not govern with hard power, but uses gentle sincerity and humility to inspire everyone (the five yang lines), while maintaining due dignity. This leadership charm that combines strength and softness can make all talents willingly serve you.
Line 6
06Since God bless you, everything will be good and bad.
Guidance
Receiving heaven's protection, all things are prosperous; great fortune.
Modern Insight
This is the most perfect outcome of the Da You hexagram. When you have fully achieved all the virtues of the previous five lines—humility, responsibility, sharing, low profile, and sincerity—you completely follow the way of heaven. At this time, the energy of the entire universe will come to help you. Everything you do will be as if divinely assisted, succeeding in all endeavors.
