Trichotomous Form

Due to the presence of BOTH/AND states in this hexagram's trichotomous form, this hexagram can share context with hexagrams 64, 47, 22, 18, 17, 48, and 21.

Transformations

At all times, the path into hexagram 63 is that of 37 - rigid structuring. What this implies is that the change of any hexagram into 63 is forced to go through the characteristics of 37

At all times the path out of hexagram 63 is the opposite of the path in - in this case the path described by 40 - relaxed structuring. Thus the process of hexagram 63 changing into any other hexagram has to pass through hexagram 40 to start.

Influences

Hexagram 63 finds it's roots in hexagram 53, maturing, with the emphasis on maturing developing into correct sequencing/completing.

As we progress towards the refined point at the top of the hexagram, so we pass through ever-improving states, the description of which is given by the order of contextual hexagrams. The final contextual state, prior to text and context becoming 'one', is described by the line 5 influence - hexagram 22, fascading.

For hexagram 63, the contextual hexagrams sequence from the base line through to the top is:

• line 1 - hexagram 53, maturing
• line 2 - hexagram 09, small gainings
• line 3 - hexagram 42, augmenting
• line 4 - hexagram 13, grouping, associating
• line 5 - hexagram 22, fascading
• line 6 - hexagram 63, 'correct' sequencing, completing

Line Influences

At a finer level of analysis, the contextual hexagrams encapsulate the behaviour of a hexagram pair - where one is connected to the unchanging line and the other to the line when it changes.These pairs are shown below, with The layout format described here
