Yi Jing, Oracle of the Moon

Kūn-Duì, Earth-Lake
    

  When Kūn changes to Duì, the nurturing care of the compliant earth meets the social exchange of the lake with its ranks. It is the connection with yore and death, with the ancestors and your own past. It is the instinct to belong together and to take responsibility for people and for actions. This creates people who can serve others without ego. They are the overseer who cares for his people, the servant who admires his employer, the actor who identifies with his role. It is the foundation of empathy, of accepting the other as he or she is.
Redress wrongs before it is too late, they will return and haunt you in the dark.
  ??? But don't erase yourself for too long or you will become invisible. To be successful, you also need to be a leader, well informed, wide awake and making your voice heard.

This is the short answer - click for the complete one.

The initiative

    
The top line (Heaven-line) shows the change of the focus or initiative.

  The top line is generally where the initiative comes from, but here it is yin, both in- and outside. It might be that you asked about a matter where the initiative or action doesn’t come from you. Yin is compliant and absorbing and occasionally accepts too easily, but it keeps the excess of dominance and lack of empathy of the Heaven-line in balance. A yin Heaven-line may bring rain: blessings – concrete sustainable solutions.
  Yin will reinforce you to process ideas and projects and to continue working on them. Yin is not aiming for success but for a job well done. It is nurturing and attractive, but there will be no output yet, for the time being your plans ask input, like ideas, energy, maybe money, and keep doing so for the time being.

When plans include the work, they will thrive.

The subject

    
The bottom line (Earth-line) shows the change of the field or subject.
变初六为震, 为雷, 雷出地中, 奋达疾速, 威声
三三远赫, 有寒木生春之意, 万汇咸亨, 品物流行, 发荣茂盛, 无适不宜。
 When the bottom line changes, Kun activates Zhen, thunder comes from the earth. It comes energetically and quickly. Its prestige extends far and wide.
  Earth with Thunder is a great tree that benefits others. It can grow by depleting the Earth, but by growing, everything else can benefit from it. It is like resistant trees, cold and bare in winter, but announcing spring early (metaphor for high moral integrity).
  Everything on earth is effortless, all living beings spread out, fame abounds. There is nothing that would not be appropriate.

The outcome

    
The middle line (Man-line) shows the outcome.
  变六二为坎, 为水, 夫坤为致役,变坎为劳, 是地本平宁, 而忽为崎岖险峻, 任重不堪, 安中伏危之象。
下怀万邦, 上承天宠。
When the second six changes it activates Kan, the water. It begins with Kun, which activates battle (strategy and fight), and it changes into Kan which activates labor (work and input). It is the earth, by nature flat, which suddenly becomes rough and steep, as if it carries a heavy load that it cannot hold. It is the image of danger, hidden in the midst of calm.
  Down below he grants favors to all feudal states, up above he is granted the favor of heaven.

  

  The three helpers
  Each line, active or at rest, summons one of the 8 trigrams as a Helper.

  For an activated line: telling you what you need - or about a problem area or something to avoid.
  For a stationary line: this is what you already have or do or what you don't need. Often we just need a reminder of our abilities. Or it could be what you wish or fear - but will not happen.
  Active lines are the helpers to change things, they listen to intentions, which can come from you, surroundings, or fate. Stationary helpers are part of the core meaning, they are your soul talking, but they also see the impossibilities. They reinforce the overall power of a reading.

  Advice or help for the initiative: Gen, Mountain with his constancy, his ability to make things endure, is lacking here or not needed. Yin remains Yin.
  Advice or help for the subject: Zhen, Thunder with his energy and stimulation and quick actions
  Advice or help for the outcome: Kan, Water, with his direction and focus, his courage to take risks and his talent to give things shape
  But when things are not satisfying, it might be that one or more helpers don't help enough - or try too hard. Or maybe you don't listen carefully enough.
