Inner Truth: pigs and fishes. Good fortune. It furthers one to cross the great water. Perseverance furthers. The hexagram is open at the centre — a heart empty of prejudice and therefore able to receive truth — and its power reaches even pigs and fishes, the least accessible of creatures: sincerity so real it moves what force and cleverness never could. This is the hexagram of the inmost sincerity that links being to being across every barrier.
Wind over the lake: the superior person discusses criminal cases in order to delay executions. Deep truth makes one merciful, not severe — the wise, understanding hearts from within, use insight to spare rather than to condemn.
The force that will decide your situation is sincerity — truth felt in the innermost heart and expressed without armour. Where argument has failed and strategy has failed, transparent genuineness will reach the other party the way the judgment's sincerity reaches 'pigs and fishes': below the defended surface, being to being. Empty your heart of verdicts first — inner truth begins as unprejudiced listening — and then speak from the actual centre; the difference is always audible. Great crossings, hard persuasions and deep reconciliations all open to this key now. And carry the image's mercy with you: those who truly understand, pardon.
