Short Summary
FreeWind rising from fire — warmth that extends outward. The family is the smallest commonwealth, and the place where character is most rigorously tested.
Your family — or whatever intimate group plays that role in your life — is where the deepest work happens. The hexagram is about the specific disciplines of close, lasting community: honest speech, clear roles, sustained warmth.
Fire warms the hearth
wind carries its warmth outward;
this is where we grow.
