This hexagram on ten matters

WorkCAREER

Shared gladness, offered sincerely. Joining with friends for discussion and practice — the joy here comes from exchange, not from being flattered.

LoveRELATIONSHIP

A cheerful relationship. Contented and sincere joyousness bring good fortune; coming joyousness brings misfortune — deliberate ingratiation is the bad case.

MoneyFINANCE

The pleasure of money coming in, but joyousness that is weighed is not at peace: if you feel uneasy, do not sign yet.

HealthBODY

Good spirits genuinely help the body. This hexagram favours activities done with others.

StudyLEARNING

Learning by discussion works best. Explaining it to someone is the best revision there is.

An examEXAM

A cheerful hexagram; you perform better relaxed. But coming joyousness brings misfortune — do not let the easy mood before the exam pull you off your routine in the final week.

PeopleSOCIAL

The most favoured category here. Things go well socially, though seductive joyousness warns that being swept along is not the same as wanting it.

A choiceDECISION

Decide, but not carelessly because the mood is good. Sincerity toward disintegrating influences is dangerous.

TravelJOURNEY

Go, and enjoy it. This hexagram is about gladness — company yields more than solitude here, though do not let the fun set the whole agenda.

A lost itemLOST ITEM

Lost while chatting or socialising. Ask the friends you were talking with.
