Hexagram Forty-Four
姤
Coming to Meet
Wind moving under heaven: the small influence arriving that deserves early attention.


One yin line enters beneath five yang — something small coming to meet the established order. This hexagram is the mirror of Breakthrough: an arriving influence, charming and minor, that repays early scrutiny. Its counsel is neither alarm nor naivety — meet what approaches, examine it while it is still small, and set terms at the threshold rather than after it has settled in. Most guests are welcome; the point is to be the one who decides.
On wealth
Vet the small new arrival — the minor clause, the easy offer — at the door, while terms are still yours.
