Yao Texts
The six lines of the Gnawing Bite Hexagram narrate a story of resolving crime through punishment.
Gnawing Bite Hexagram - Yao 21.1
Misfortune
The criminal's feet are shackled, and the toes are separated—moderate punishment.
Although the actions may seem excessive, they deter disobedience, achieving the desired effect without fault. Business dealings should avoid industries related to wood.
Gnawing Bite Hexagram - Yao 21.2
Neutral
The criminal is punished by cutting the skin and removing the nose, yet the punishment is not overly severe.
Minor losses may occur, but they will not cause significant harm. This is a time of indecision and disputes; patience is necessary.
Gnawing Bite Hexagram - Yao 21.3
Misfortune
Poison is applied to the criminal's bones and flesh. The pain is mild, and no harm results.
Human factors slow the process, but no significant harm occurs.
Gnawing Bite Hexagram - Yao 21.4
Fortune
The poison penetrates deeply, and arrows are obtained, symbolizing useful information. Beneficial for just actions.
In ancient times, metal was very rare, especially finely crafted arrows. Here, arrows symbolize important information. This represents gaining a promotion, making progress, and achieving greater profits. However, it is not yet the highest position or industry leadership, which may lead to complacency and laziness. With perseverance, such issues can be avoided.
Gnawing Bite Hexagram - Yao 21.5
Fortune
The poison reaches the bone marrow, yielding gold. The criminal suffers, but no fault lies with me.
Gold represents very important information that is highly useful to us. It signifies attaining a higher position and greater profits. Although the other party has been greatly tormented, it is something I must do.
Gnawing Bite Hexagram - Yao 21.6
Misfortune
Placing a restraint on the criminal's head caused injuries to their ears. This signifies bad luck.
Placing a restraint on the head signifies silencing the criminal, suggesting a possibility of coercion during interrogation. Attention should be paid to disputes and potential litigation.
When interpreting the hexagram, pay attention to the five-element attributes of each yao, interpreting them according to the cycle of creation and destruction.
