Trigram Qian - "Heaven"
Meaning
8. This is the final step on this cycle's path. All that you have traveled through, what you have experienced, dissolves into your being - transforming into something which you no longer perceive as external.
At the same time, you yourself have changed to such an extent that you have become a different person compared to how you remember yourself in the past. The old personality has already disappeared, now you define yourself in a different way. This stage consolidates the achievements, altering you permanently.
Your uncertainty in this matter likely stems from attempting to look at the new with the "old eyes". The opposite is also true - it may be confusing for your renewed self to be looking at something this old.
It is up to you to decide for yourself - who is looking and what they are looking at?
The unambiguity of this hexagram lies in the fact that there is a confusion within you, because your approach doesn't quite match the task at hand.
It's as if there's a door before you and a set of keys - you just need to choose the right one. The question is not how to do it, but rather recognizing this aspect in this particular situation. If you are already carrying the key, simply take a closer look at it.

This position is ideal for learning other people's experiences, where you can add your own skill and, later on, create an event, or a project, that is important for you.
It can also act as a final stage in personal evolution - you've mastered something and the time is ripe to turn on to full power.

Hexagram 34 indicates what it is that combines the energy and awareness of where it should be directed.
If you are in a negative state of mind, then this is a moment of self-destruction. In this case, it is better to think about completely changing your personality, otherwise it will destroy your body ...
If you are currently experiencing high vibrations, then this, in itself, is the most important thing - transformation in the desired direction will occur very quickly. This is the point of materialization concerning your inquiry.
Acknowledge that the hexagram is precisely aligned with the core of your question; thus, do not try to solve all your issues at the same time. However, it provides you with additional energy for other events, provided that you are able to stay on top of this wave.
Hexagram 34 interpretation of the Book of Changes
A place of creativity. Your ideas in this area reach their highest flowering.
This is one of the most important events in your life. But its importance is not in the doing itself, but in what you can see from this perspective.
This is an area of any decision. What you determine for yourself as significant, will be implemented.
Don't get caught up in trifles.
Remember, that this is not the ceiling, but the highest peak in the current evolution, from which you can see not only what has already passed, but also the other peaks.
From this position any of your advice will have prophetic power.

An excellent position for transferring your skills to the stage of mastery.

Hexagram 26 interpretation of the Book of Changes
This is a somewhat insidious hexagram, in which everything seems achievable, but you do not want to do anything.
It may seem to you that everything is too simple and you need new reference points for action, but it is not so. But in reality, you have seen the palace (the goal) and sat in front of the entrance gate. But no one will enter instead of you, so don't give in to the illusion of achievement.
This is not the time to rest on your laurels. If you allow yourself inaction or despondency here, you will quickly slip back to the beginning, after which it will be difficult to rise again.

The moment of illumination of mastery, when you realize that there is only a little bit left.

It's the most inappropriate time to rush. It is equally inappropriate to quit. What's left to do?
Reach the maximum point of relaxation, where you allow the solution to come without any pressure.
The decision will come for sure, exactly at the moment when the last impulse of desire to think it over disappears.
This is an agonizing process if you resort to force. The point is that the cycle cannot be turned back anyway, and your force is the start of another cycle. Just allow it, and it will happen on its own.
The highest point of joy here comes at the moment when there is no expectation at all - the answer appears ...
