Duration, derived from thunder above gentle wind? How's that again? Two formless changing moving principles combine to give Duration? It is the inner directive, the adherence to one's true nature that endures.
This is also the eldest son wed to the eldest daughter. While moving a bit a way from that dimension of the analysis, it does draw the eye to the current condition of the upper/outer trigram being the complement of the lower/inner trigram. Obviously there are eight such arrangements, and distinguishing among them will be a worthy goal. The outer and inner are "opposites," complementing each other. In this case the outer is a strong and forceful trigram, thunder; this is the public face of the day. But the inner face of the day is the gentle wind. And there must be a kind of solidity, a trueness to form, to sustain such a seeming disparity.
This hexagram also brings to light the development of the nuclear trigrams. In effort to make sense of this arrangement who could resist finding meaning in the presence of the Ch'ien trigram, in this case we find it in the "lower" nuclear trigram; this then suggests we also have Sun, the gentle wind, as an "upper" nuclear trigram, which in turn could lead us to a new hexagram. We won't be following that path today, but it is there and it is part of the depth of study to which the chun tzu aspires.
Duration, despite seemingly transitory phenomena. Soon it will change.
