I Ching: Hexagram 22 (Pi)

above KêN KEEPING STILL, MOUNTAIN
below LI THE CLINGING, FIRE


This hexagram shows a fire that breaks out of the secret depths of the earth and, blazing up, illuminates and beautifies the mountain, the heavenly heights. Grace-beauty of form-is necessary in any union if it is to be well ordered and pleasing rather than disordered and chaotic.
