Judgment

不利有攸往。
Splitting apart. It does not further one to go anywhere.

The mountain rests on the earth: the image of splitting apart. Thus those above can ensure their position only by giving generously to those below.
Six Lines
— Bottom to top
Modern Readings
— Interdisciplinary
Career & Management
Comprehensive business contraction, severe asymmetric blow, broken capital chain. Counter-cyclical betting is suicide; cut to the irreducible core (the uneaten fruit) and survive.
Psychology & Cognition
Accept loss. When the environment turns hostile entirely, abandon illusion; minimize damage; keep the inner fire alive.
Decision Guidance
It does not further to go anywhere. Do not deploy capital, do not expand. Hold the seed.
Western Parallels
— Cross-cultural
Nassim Taleb's 'risk of ruin' and the imperative to avoid the irreversible; Schumpeter's downside of 'creative destruction' for the destroyed firm; the Stoic distinction between what you control and what you cannot; the biological wisdom of dormancy through winter.
