The no2DO<\/a> interpretation model<\/a><\/em> splits a hexagram<\/a> into upper and lower trigram<\/a> (“lower trigram”,”upper trigram”), and both core character<\/a> (“first core character”; “second core character”). <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Just like a plant that grows bottom-up, a hexagram is built from bottom to top during consultation. And that is exactly how the hexagram is read with the no2DO interpretation model<\/a>: from bottom to top, visually speaking from purple (“Lower Trigram”) to light green (“Upper Trigram”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although some other authors may not explicitly consider this sequencing, it is undisputed that the two core character reveal how lower and upper trigram interact. To me it just seems logical to match the way a hexagram is built and how it is lateron read (from bottom to top).<\/p>\n\n\n

Interestingly enough, there is a specific order in the way individual trigrams evolve: each trigram has only two ways to transform itself into another trigram:

The dark arrow indicates that a (broken) yin<\/a> line is added. The red arrow indicates that a (solid) yang<\/a> line is added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hexagram 11 – Peace<\/em><\/a> (shown in the animation above) would result in the following graphic: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For some years now, I have also been using pictogram<\/a>s to represent the individual hexagrams on the interpretation pages. Here you can find thoughts on the subject of pictograms: The images stem from the ideas<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this model in mind an interpretation of the hexagram can be elaborated:
