This hexagram's name is "Sheng," meaning to rise. When advancing upwards, one should follow their true nature and uphold integrity and righteousness to achieve development. Sheng signifies a situation like riding the wind and soaring, which will become increasingly prosperous. It is a situational hexagram, with fortune and misfortune undecided, leaning towards slightly auspicious. This will be particularly evident during times of changing luck. One can make plans now, but they are not yet ready for execution. The image of Xun wood growing upwards from the earth extends to the concept of promotion, thus this hexagram indicates gradual progress in luck that can lead to achieving one's goals. However, climbing high must start from low, and traveling far must begin nearby. One should not go too far or act too soon, nor should one be hesitant and fall behind. One must wait patiently and advance gradually. Furthermore, the earth in Kun represents gentleness and compliance, and the wind in Xun represents obedience. Therefore, this hexagram extends to the meaning of gentle compliance with human affairs, a humble attitude of not contending with others, keeping one's talents to oneself without seeking self-promotion, and not fighting for profit, but focusing on learning and morality.
