Hexagram 09 and 10

Picture at top: XIAO³ CHU⁴, the ancient characters and their parts.
XIAO³: The character above (1): 3 grains of rice or sand - small.
The character below, CHU⁴ or XÜ⁴, is composed of silk si¹ (2) and
field with plants tian² (3) (or hunting-field with game). Li Leyi says: silk (2) and field (3): the harvest of silk and crops. According to others, it is
not si¹ but xuan², profound or dark, dark-colored, black. Later use: mystic, mysterious. Wang Hongyuan: not silk but bolas, an ancient throwing weapon xuan² (2), with the symbol for hunting tian² (3).
CHU⁴: animal, livestock. On oracle bones: raise livestock.
In the Mawangdui YiJing both characters are different. Small is shao³, another version of the character xiao³. The second one is a character which does not exist in this form anymore, maybe it is yi⁴: to plant,
sow, cultivate, capacities, art, talent, craft, but this is not certain.
Pronounced as xü⁴: rear or raise (livestock or children), nourish, support, cherish, suffocate, suppress, accumulate, store, gather,
keep, meadow, put out to pasture in nature, conform with, follow, tolerate, support, docile. Dà chù: big cattle.
Xù is exchangeable with the same character with 'plants' added:
collect, store, save up, hoard, reserve, accumulate, restrain, rear, breed.

Clouds are Heaven's thoughts, one's intuition, one's 'guts' telling where danger lurks, and inner responsibility and knowledge without words. Trigram wind (influence) above heaven (law, create). Heaven is the inner trigram, creativity/laws are the source, but it is the wind, the influence, which manifests.

10 LÜ, act in such a way that you can live where you live - and others with you.

Picture at top: LÜ³, the ancient character and its parts.
LÜ³: The character represents a corpse or a sitting man (1), who is impersonating the deceased person at a funeral. A foot on a road (2): going. A boat (3), also indicating a shoe: Chinese shoes look like boats. And a foot (4). The oldest form of this character was probably simpler, but I could not find one.
LÜ³: shoe, sandal, wear shoes, to tread, follow a track, traverse, accomplish, (right) conduct, virtue, rite, hold an office, domain (of a prince), path. Loan for dignity and for li², durable happiness.
In the Mawangdui YiJing it is the character li: sacrifice to spirits, asking for riches or good fortune. Ceremony; rite; ritual, courtesy; etiquette; manners, gift; present.

The characters at left: words or compounds with LÜ³
1 Mawangdui: (altar-abundance) sacrifice, ritual, gift, courtesy.
2 (shoes go) perform; fulfil; carry out
3 (step shoes) walk; gait
4 (shoes history/experience) curriculum vitae; antecedents
5 (leather shoes) leather shoes
6 (fulfil shoes) keep, fulfil (pledge etc.)
7 (shoes ice) cautious, remain vigilant
8 (shoes new) assume new post.

Shoes, they stand for the way of treading. Not just putting one foot before the other, but the ritual involved, the way one goes one's road.

Both hexagrams:
   Hex.10: Heaven (law, create) above lake (exchange), the laws and creativity of human interaction. Heaven is the outer trigram, it manifests in the outer world. The inner trigram, lake, exchanging, is the source.
   For finding one's way in life one needs both, the hard work of building a life and making a living, and the right way to interact with all other creatures. They complement each other.
   Most of your life is made from small things, with little weight. So it is easy to do them in a small and light way. Don’t underestimate them though, the things may be small, but it is your whole self who does them, and it is your life which depends on them. You don’t notice how much you lose when you are sloppy or sleepy or too easy-going. Until, some day, you find your life to miss meaning. Or you discover that you missed the right turn on some crossing far back, and you don't like where you are heading now.
   Give all your actions all your attention. How you walk in your life and how you look after all small things in it will decide how its big picture looks.
