After childhood - Great Harvest

# 14 Great Harvest "Da You"

Great harvest is the inverse of the preceding gua, seeking harmony brings about a great harvest. on the other hand, a great harvest lends wings to seeking harmony. seeking harmony and great harvest are complementary to each other and help each other advance.

Sequence of the gua
after seeking harmony with people, things are sure to respond to you.
thus, after seeking harmony, great harvest follows.

Confucius's commentary on the decision says:

His virtue is firm and strong and also brilliant.
He corresponds with heaven
and acts in accordance with time
Thus there is supreme progress and success.

- Structure of this gua
Fire above, heaven below. it symbolizes the sun shining in the sky and giving light and heat to myriad beings on Earth - an image if prosperity and abundance.
it is the time for great harvest.

As an extension of the preceding gua, it shows that only in the spirit of seeking harmony with people can promote peace in the world, manifest prosperity in our country, and create abundance for our families.

화천대유 = 크고 형통하다.

마치 불이 하늘위에 있는 상이니, 하늘위에 환한 불이 있으니, 천하만상을 모두 비추고 천하를 품에 안은것이다. 군자는 이러한 상을 보고 본받아 천하를 비추는 밝은 지혜로 악함을 막고 선함을 드날리며 이를 통해 하늘이 천하만물을 낳은 그 아름다운 명에 순하게 따른다.
