Traditional Reading of I Ching Hexagram 19, The Approach

  new question

I Ching Hexagram 19

The hexagram 19 of the I Ching, The Approach, indicates the moment of transition between a new beginning (hexagram 24) and its full and generous realization (hexagram 11). It is, thus, defined as the moment when we begin to approach success. Such transition indicates the attitude to adopt to achieve our goals, as it depends on a willingness to learn. Success is not a natural process, but the result of the effort of rising oneself to a broader knowledge of the situation.

Quick guide for interpretation
