BRIGHTNESS
30. Li/Brightness

Name and Structure
Li is the opposite of the preceding gua, Kan. It represents Fire or Brightness. When the lines of a gua alternate from yin to yang or yang to yin, a new gua –the opposite of the original gua-comes forth. Wilhelm translates Li as The Clinging, Fire; Blofeld translates Li as Flaming Beauty. Here I use Brightness. Li means to leave, to part from, to be away from, but in ancient times it also meant to attach. This is why the orderly sequence of the g... read more
