Hexagram 55 · ☳ over ☲

The judgment
Fullness and brilliance at their peak — this is the moment of greatest brightness and power, when everything aligns and conditions are perfectly met. Like the sun at noon, the hexagram also implies that what reaches its height will begin to change; the peak moment is for doing, not for looking at.
The image. Thunder above fire — great force above the brightest clarity, fullness in motion.
Guidance
Act now, while conditions are at their best. Bring full energy and clarity to what is in front of you — the peak moment belongs to those who use it.
How it’s built
Every hexagram is two trigrams — the lower one beneath the upper. This one is Lí below Zhèn.
☳Upper · Thunderthe Arousing — movement, shock, a sudden beginning, the eldest son
☲Lower · Firethe Clinging — light, clarity, beauty, the middle daughter
