Traditional Reading of I Ching Hexagram 25, Innocence

  new question

I Ching Hexagram 25

The hexagram 25 of the I Ching, Innocence, associates the creative force of Heaven to the power of Thunder to initiate movement. Its meaning is somewhat abstract as it concerns the problem of beginning a creative movement, which is done by innocence alone. This implies that a creative movement does not spring from ulterior motives but begins in pure innocence. It is by setting itself in motion that creativity opens ways and creates meanings which are really new.

Quick guide for interpretation

Innocence allows the creation of something new.
