eight forces
I Ching Trigrams
Trigrams give the hexagram body breath: the upper force shows outer weather, the lower one shows inner support.

passivity, self-erasure, consent where a boundary is needed
☳
Thunder
awakening
shakes, starts, awakens
panic, abruptness, noise instead of action
☴
Wind
gentle penetration
enters gradually, persuades, repeats
vagueness, over-adaptation, quiet manipulation
☵
Water
depth and risk
flows through a dangerous place
fear, repeated trap, dependence on anxiety
☲
Fire
clarity and attachment
illuminates, reveals, connects
blindness, dependence on recognition, dramatization
☶
Mountain
stillness
stops, gathers, guards the boundary
freezing, stubbornness, refusal to see movement
☱
