Great Power. We are 1/4th the way through the building cycle from zero to 63; 1/8th the way through the full cycle from zero to zero, Kun to Kun, darkamptyreceptive to darkemptyreceptive. This is the 16th hexagram in our studies, and corresponds to the number 15 in the binary numbering system.
The readings speak of great strength or great power. But they also harp on the dangers inherent therein. For the life of me I cannot get anything better from the readings than the classic ending panel of Amazing Comics #15, "With great power comes great responsibility."
Energetically this is the first time we see a solid swell of lightmaleyang energy making its way from the bottom of the stack all the way across the divide between trigrams. So the active principle is on the rise and even uniting the trigrams, Heaven below connects with Thunder above via their light lines. But just as the image represents a heretofore unseen solidifying of the active principle on the formerly empty receptive field, it is nonetheless immature, unbalanced. So while there is power here it is not the power to break with traditions and remake the world to our liking. It is instead the power to benefit by doing the right things the right way. Nose to the grindstone, shoulder to the wheel, for this is the day that our efforts will not be for naught, when our great power can serve duty and right. Soon it will change.
