Yao Texts
The six Yaos of the Great Exceeding Hexagram describe the attitude required when faced with extreme situations.
Great Exceeding Hexagram - Yao 28.1
Neutral
The roof is made of light white grass, indicating no major faults.
In ancient times, houses were often thatched. Using lightweight material like white grass avoided overburdening the structure. It suggests that the foundation is not stable yet, and light-handed approaches should be used.
Great Exceeding Hexagram - Yao 28.2
Fortune
A withered tree sprouts new shoots, and an older man marries a younger woman. While uncommon, it is not inherently bad.
It implies taking action within principles when faced with new opportunities or challenges, without overly high expectations. Companies may need new employees, and senior staff might need to adapt.
Great Exceeding Hexagram - Yao 28.3
Misfortune
The beam of the house bends under pressure, creating great danger.
It indicates a critical juncture where the situation has reached its limit, and immediate action must be taken to relieve pressure or burdens, or disaster will follow.
Great Exceeding Hexagram - Yao 28.4
Fortune
The bent beam is propped back up, which is positive. However, this is only temporary; another bend would be irreparable.
Focusing on resolving core issues during a crisis can avert disaster. However, distractions may lead to missed opportunities.
Great Exceeding Hexagram - Yao 28.5
Neutral
A withered poplar blossoms, and an older woman marries a younger man. While harmless, it is not commendable.
It suggests that those in key positions should adapt to natural changes and accept new challenges. In business, avoid over-reliance on existing products; repackage them for innovation and resale.
Great Exceeding Hexagram - Yao 28.6
Neutral
Crossing a river where the water reaches overhead is dangerous, but retreating can avoid greater harm.
It indicates that exceeding one’s limits invites trouble, and excessive actions may lead to fundamental errors.
When interpreting the hexagram, pay attention to the five-element attributes of each yao, interpreting them according to the cycle of creation and destruction. When studying in conjunction with the changing hexagram, note which yao is activated, whether it brings benefit or harm, and whether it is easily activated. Further details can be found here:
