Ta Yu / Possession in Great Measure
above:Li The Clinging, Flame
below:Ch'ien The Creative, Heaven
Nine at the top means:
He is blessed by heaven.
Good fortune.
Nothing that does not further.
In the fullness of possession and at the height of power, one remains
modest and gives honor to the sage who stands outside the affairs of
the world. By this means one puts oneself under the beneficent
influence descending form heaven, and all goes well. Confucius says of
this line:
To bless means to help. Heaven helps the man who is devoted; men help
the man who is true. He who walks in truth and is devoted in his
thinking, and furthermore reveres the worthy, is blessed by heaven. He
has good fortune, and there is nothing that would not further.
