“Following the wind”—this is Xùn.
The noble one, seeing this,
carries out affairs by extending guidance and careful conduct.

Short-sightedness, lack of courage and action, and inability to proactively expand horizons and develop situations are dangerous! We must constantly hone and improve our knowledge and knowledge! Always hesitating about parts, being indecisive, generalizing from partial aspects, and not seeing the whole, it is inevitable that the gains will outweigh the gains and opportunities will be lost. Expand your horizons and improve your knowledge! The wind spreads across the earth, watch!

Stick to the cause of fairness and justice without regrets or harm. Sometimes, although the start is not good, through continuous correction and adjustment, good results will be achieved. You must keep your wishes and conduct fair, kind, decisive, wise, and act persistently, and you will always have good results, sooner or later! Three days before Geng and three days after Geng, auspicious! Sooner or later.

Make up your mind, make up your mind, and then do it without regrets, and you will always gain something. It's like hunting, if you make a plan, have a good horse and a good bow, you will always gain something: if you get a third-grade field, you have merit.

Frequent changes and constant changes in direction are not good! Frequent changes of attention are caused by a weak mind and weak will. Danger!

For some small things and the corresponding actions, it is like a gust of wind under the bed, which is harmless. For small matters, or matters that are not very urgent, you can think over and over again, weigh things around, and listen to opinions from many parties. It will be auspicious and there will be no mistakes. For non-urgent matters, you can listen to opinions from multiple parties to gain support from the majority of people and strive for impartiality and fairness.

When you are in a dilemma, when you are in a dilemma, you should learn from soldiers and warriors, be decisive and brave! When you have doubts and are indecisive, you should think carefully and analyze, and then make decisive decisions to take action and complete the task.

Four Major Health Wisdoms from Xun Hexagram 1. Regulate Breath and Nourish Qi — Wind moves qi, smooth qi clears disease Wind symbolizes qi; its movement parallels regulated breathing and circulation of qi and blood. Application: Practice slow, deep breathing daily to regulate lung qi and open meridians. Combine with gentle exercises like Baduanjin (Eight Brocade) and Tai Chi to circulate qi and nurture the body. Avoid anger and impatience: The liver governs wind; emotional agitation stirs internal wind, harming liver and spirit. 📌 Huangdi Neijing says: “Wind is the leader of a hundred diseases.” Proper use of Xun’s wind means it moves like water, nourishing silently; improper use causes internal unrest and external illness. 2. Gentleness and Restraint — Harmonious body and mind foster longevity The core of Xun is “gentle yet compliant.” It is not weakness but using softness to overcome hardness, adapting to change. Application: Moderate desires like invisible wind; follow the middle way without rashness or forcefulness. Maintain moderation in lifestyle, diet, and emotions.
