Sơn Phong Cổ (蠱) — Repairing What Was Spoiled Ý nghĩa tổng quan
Sơn Phong Cổ represents the work of restoration after decay or neglect. The upper trigram Sơn (Mountain) suggests stillness and solidity, while the lower trigram Phong (Wind) symbolizes penetration and change. Together they depict wind eroding the mountain's foundation—corruption or disorder that has taken root—and the patient effort required to repair it. This hexagram speaks to any situation where things have gone wrong through inattention or mismanagement, and healing demands both clear sight and sustained action. Khi bạn gieo được quẻ này
The I Ching suggests you are facing the aftermath of deterioration—whether in a project, relationship, or circumstance. Rather than despair, this is an invitation to diagnose the root causes honestly and begin methodical reconstruction. The situation calls for your active participation; improvement will not come by waiting. Consider what you or others have neglected, and ask whether you have the resolve and wisdom to address it directly. Tình duyên
In matters of love and partnership, this hexagram signals that a relationship may require intentional repair. Honest conversation about what has eroded—trust, communication, or care—is the first step. If you are unattached, it suggests preparing your heart by resolving lingering hurts before beginning anew. Genuine renewal takes time and sincerity from both partners. Sự nghiệp
At work, Sơn Phong Cổ may indicate inherited problems or a project in disarray. Your role is to assess the damage clearly and implement steady improvements. This is not the time for shortcuts; building back credibility and function requires diligence. Focus on fundamentals and restoring confidence. Tài lộc & sức khỏe
Financially, attend to neglected obligations or systems that have slipped. In health, the hexagram suggests addressing underlying issues that have been ignored—prevention and consistent care now prevent larger problems later.
