Traditional Reading of I Ching Hexagram 51, Bursting

I Ching Hexagram 51

The hexagram 52 of the I Ching, Bursting, consists of repetition of the Thunder trigram. It symbolizes a violent movement with important consequences all-around. The repetition indicates that the initiating power of Thunder is here increased. We are led by a very strong movement which has imposing and surprising effects for those outside of it. However, we should not be daunted by its powerful effects but benefit from this possibility of transformation. As this pure movement is reinforced, it is in harmony with itself. This means it has a center from which all changes can be done in a stable and productive way.

Quick guide for interpretation

We must benefit from the harmony inside a powerful transformation movement.
