• Dayan Interpretation Order — Judgment, Tuan Zhuan, Great Image, Line Statements, Xiao Xiang: Which to Read First When You Finish Casting, with Full Criteria and Breakers

  After casting a hexagram you face five layers of text — Judgment, Tuan Zhuan, Great Image, line statements, Xiao Xiang. Which comes first? The answer depends on one thing: does your hexagram have moving lines? Moving-line hexagram takes Path A. Static hexagram takes Path B. Two paths, completely opposite starting points. Includes a full walkthrough example with Lei Huo Feng, first line moving.

• One Moving Line to Six Moving Lines — Zhu Xi's Complete Divination Rules for Every Moving Line Count, with Full Criteria and Breakers

  Zhu Xi's divination rules from Yixue Qimeng: one moving line — read the line statement. Two — read both, prioritize the upper. Three — read the original and transformed hexagram Judgments. Four — read the two unmoving line statements in the transformed hexagram. Five — read the single unmoving line statement. Six — read the transformed hexagram Judgment. Every rule comes with a full interpretation example. Essential for Dayan method divination.

  From the first change to the eighteenth, one line at a time. Follow a full Dayan casting step by step with a real example. Each step: which change, which line, what remainder sum, what value (9/6/7/8), what to draw (⚊/⚋). Final output: original hexagram, transformed hexagram, and the list of moving lines.

• How to Interpret a Static Hexagram — The Complete Method for When No Lines Move, with a Full Example from Judgment to Commentary to Action Guide

  Static hexagrams appear at roughly 2% probability — rare but it happens. No moving lines means 'the current state will not change' or 'the time to change has not come.' Interpretation order: Judgment → Commentary → Great Image. Zhu Xi says static hexagrams prioritize the Judgment; line statements are supplementary. Includes a full interpretation example using Di Feng Sheng ䷭ — from overall fortune to action steps, nothing omitted.
