Overall Interpretation
This chapter specifically discusses the relationships of generation, restriction, entombment, exhaustion, and harmony in hexagram transformations. Based on my practical experience, whenever a hexagram transforms into a "reverse restriction" (回头克), it should be interpreted as an ominous sign, regardless of the strength or weakness of the Useful God🌪.
🌳 Xun (Wind, Wood) Transforming into Kan (Water, Generation)
Elder Brother Mao Wood ○ Self → Father Zi Water
Offspring Si Fire ′
Wife Wealth Wei Earth ″
Official Ghost You Metal ○ Response → Offspring Wu Fire
Father Hai Water ′
Wife Wealth Chou Earth ″
Interpretation: Xun belongs to Wood, transforming into Kan, which belongs to Water. Water generates Wood, known as transformation generation💧→🌱, indicating a reverse generative relationship. This is interpreted as auspicious.
🌳 Zhen (Thunder, Wood) Transforming into Qian (Heaven, Metal, Restriction)
Wife Wealth Xu Earth × Self → Wife Wealth Xu Earth
Official Ghost Shen Metal × → Official Ghost Shen Metal
Offspring Wu Fire ′
Wife Wealth Chen Earth × Response → Wife Wealth Chen Earth
Elder Brother Yin Wood × → Elder Brother Yin Wood
Father Zi Water ′
Interpretation: Zhen belongs to Wood, transforming into Qian, which belongs to Metal. Metal restricts Wood, known as transformation restriction⚔️, indicating reverse restriction. This is interpreted as highly inauspicious.
⚔️ Dui (Lake, Metal) Transforming into Zhen (Thunder, Wood, "Transforming Away")
Father Wei Earth ″ Self
Elder Brother You Metal ○ → Elder Brother Shen Metal
Offspring Hai Water ′
Father Chou Earth ″ Response
Wife Wealth Mao Wood ○ → Wife Wealth Yin Wood
Official Ghost Si Fire ′
Interpretation: Dui belongs to Metal, transforming into Zhen, which belongs to Wood. The original hexagram represents "me," and "I" restrict "him" (Metal restricts Wood). This is called transforming away. Although it involves restriction, it is not primarily inauspicious, as it indicates actively restricting the other party.
🌳 Zhen (Thunder, Wood) Transforming into Dui (Lake, Metal, "Transforming Toward")
Wife Wealth Xu Earth ″ Self
Official Ghost Shen Metal × → Official Ghost You Metal
Offspring Wu Fire ′
Wife Wealth Chen Earth ″ Response
Elder Brother Yin Wood × → Elder Brother Mao Wood
Father Zi Water ′
Interpretation: Zhen Wood transforms into Dui Metal. "He" restricts "me" (Metal restricts Wood), known as transforming toward. This indicates reverse restriction and is highly inauspicious⚠️, foreboding danger in all types of inquiries.
Case 1: Inquiry About an Elder’s Official Position on Xinsi Day in Mao Month (Xun Transforming into Qian)
Elder Brother Mao Wood ′ Self
Offspring Si Fire ′
Wife Wealth Wei Earth × → Offspring Wu Fire
Official Ghost You Metal ′ Response
Father Hai Water ′
Wife Wealth Chou Earth × → Father Zi Water
Background: Inquiry on behalf of an elder about their official position.
Analysis: Xun Wood transforms into Qian Metal, indicating reverse restriction, a hexagram of exhaustion🌪. There is no need to inquire about the official position; their life is nearing its end.
Result: The elder was indeed dismissed from their position in the Wu Year and passed away in July.
Case 2: Inquiry About the Master’s Illness on Bingyin Day in Wu Month (Li Transforming into Kan)
Elder Brother Si Fire ○ Self → Official Ghost Zi Water
Offspring Wei Earth × → Offspring Xu Earth
Wife Wealth You Metal ○ → Wife Wealth Shen Metal
Official Ghost Hai Water ○ Response → Elder Brother Wu Fire
Offspring Chou Earth × → Offspring Chen Earth
Father Mao Wood ○ → Father Yin Wood
Analysis: Li Fire transforms into Kan Water, indicating reverse restriction. Although Fire is strong in Wu Month, it will inevitably face danger when Water becomes strong in winter❄️.
Result: The master indeed passed away on Dinghai Day in September.
Case 3: Inquiry About Recovering a Property Debt on Yiyou Day in Mao Month (Kan Transforming into Kun)
Elder Brother Zi Water ″ Self
Official Ghost Xu Earth ○ → Elder Brother Hai Water
Father Shen Metal ″
Wife Wealth Wu Fire ″ Response
Official Ghost Chen Earth ○ → Wife Wealth Si Fire
Offspring Yin Wood ″
Analysis: The hexagram transforms into reverse restriction. The property debt is a minor matter; this year, all matters should be approached with caution⚠️.
Result: The person drowned in a boating accident in April. A minor inquiry revealed a major warning, as the divine spirit forewarned to allow timely avoidance.

Summary: Hexagram reverse restriction is a significant ominous sign⚠️. Regardless of the strength or weakness of the Useful God, it should be taken seriously. This reflects the Yijing's warning wisdom of "discerning subtle signs," which still holds practical value for risk identification in modern times.
