27 The Corners of the Mouth (Providing Nourishment) Hungering
|
"[With enlightenment comes discernment] : [Knowledge]. Below the mountain is thunder. Ingesting. One considers one's words when talking, just as one regulates one's eating and drinking."
Class: Differentiating
In hexagram 27 we recognize that nourishment is a vital part of generation, without it we die. But it does not need to have meaning, it just needs to be filling; be warned. Contextually, a degree of devotion and openness develops into a difficult beginning and one hungers for information.
Five-Phase Relationships : The trigram of Thunder reflects raw Production. The trigram of Mountain reflects Filtration-by-discernment. Production through Filtration-by-discernment is expresses as hungering for 'food' with a warning on what comes into one's mouth ('take in') as well as what comes out of one's mouth ('furnish what is necessary').
Goal of 27 - hexagram 43 (or 'how do I 43? - 27')
27 is the goal of 04 (or 'how do I 27? - 04' How do I hunger? Fill the 'inside'? Through education, masking )
The raw context from which the situation derives is described by hexagram 24. The base line position is described through analogy with hexagram 02 devoting/receiving. It passed through hexagram 03 Difficult Beginnings before reaching here.

The raw context from which the situation derives is described by hexagram 02 devoting/receiving. It passed through hexagram 03 Difficult Beginnings before reaching here.
By introducing this hexagram as context, you can change a state described by any other hexagram into a state described by hexagram 24. To make a state associated with another hexagram transform into this state, introduce hexagram 24 as context.
It is important to remember that, when using transformative methods, the more lines requiring change, the more energy required when attempting to introduce a different context. It may therefore be of benefit to work on existing changing lines and achieve your goal in steps rather than attempt, for example, a six-line change all at once.
To 'go with the flow', any hexagram that is changing into hexagram 62 reflects an influence of 27 on that hexagram in that the 'flow' is in hexagram 27 and as such this reflects the need to adapt to that flow and so take-on the properties and methods of 27.
