I Ching reading: Feng (Abundance) changing to Dazhuang (Great Strength)
Feng: Six in the second place
The screen is so large that the Dipper is seen at midday. Going brings suspicion and ill will. There is sincerity that opens the way: good fortune.
豐其蔀，日中見斗。往得疑疾，有孚發若，吉。

Yes, go ahead.This is the very height. Use it well, and know that what peaks will decline.
Governing text · Feng: Six in the second place
In plain wordsThe covering is so great that the Northern Dipper can be seen in broad daylight. You see clearly, but the one above you is in the dark; if you go to follow him, you will only be suspected. The only way is to build up enough sincerity to move him and open his eyes. Good fortune.
- Now
- Greatness and fullness, like the sun at noon.
- The key
- Only one line is changing: Six in the second place. The answer is in that line. This text describes a good outcome. Act the way it says and the matter can succeed. The promise has a condition: keep to the right course.
- Where it is heading
- Things are moving toward Dazhuang (Great Strength): When your strength is great, the worst danger is using it in the wrong place.
- What to do
- Do not worry; while it lasts, get things done openly and honorably. At the same time understand that once noon has passed the sun begins to slant. Do not mistake now for forever.
