The Well: the town may be changed, but the well cannot be changed. It neither decreases nor increases. They come and go and draw from the well. If one gets down almost to the water and the rope does not go all the way, or the jug breaks, it brings misfortune. Political forms change; the well of human nature and its needs remains — the source is inexhaustible, and the only failures are failures of access: the short rope, the broken jug, the well unused.
Water over wood: the superior person encourages the people at their work and exhorts them to help one another. The well serves all who come; the wise organise life so that nourishment — material and spiritual — actually reaches everyone.
Your question touches a source — a wellspring of value, tradition, talent or truth that does not change even as everything around it reorganises. The oracle's counsel is about access: the well is full, but is your rope long enough? Deepen the practice, finish the training, repair the connection — because almost reaching water is the same as no water, and a broken jug at the last metre is the hexagram's one named misfortune. Tend the source itself for others too: a well exists to be drawn from, and community forms around reliable water. Go all the way down; the water is there.
