Hexagra Sequence

Hexagram Note:
Decrease: Reflects loss, reduction, and sacrifice. It advises accepting temporary setbacks, letting go of attachments, and focusing on long-term growth and sustainability.

Hexagram 41 – Sǔn (Decrease / Diminishing)

Mountain over Lake — Gèn above Duì

Judgment

Sǔn: There is sincerity.
Great good fortune.
No misfortune.
Perseverance is favorable.
Favorable to undertake ventures.
What use is this? Two ceremonial food vessels may be used in offering.

Commentary on the Judgment (Tuàn)

Sǔn means “decrease”: what is below is reduced to benefit what is above; the way moves upward.
“Decrease with sincerity” brings great good fortune, no misfortune, and is favorable to perseverance.
“It is favorable to undertake ventures” — why?
Two ceremonial food vessels may be used in offerings.
The use of the two vessels corresponds to the proper timing;
decrease the firm, increase the yielding at the right time.
Decrease and increase, fullness and emptiness, proceed in accordance with the times.

Commentary on the Image (Xiàng)

“A lake beneath the mountain”—this is Decrease.
The noble one, seeing this,
restrains anger and curbs desire.
