卦象：大畜(乾下艮上)变为暌(兑下离上)

The symbol: 100111 (Earth over heaven)-> 101011 (Fire over water)

大畜：利贞，不家食吉，利涉大川。

这个卦象说明，地震的能量积蓄很大，不呆在家里才是吉利的。必须克服大的障碍。

The symbol for current says, that the energy of the earthquake is superior.  The luck falls on the people who did not stay in houses.  To get out of troubles, one has to go over huge obstruction.

This clearly described the current situation in the earthquake.

彖曰：大畜，刚健笃实辉光，日新其德，刚上而尚贤。 能止健，大正也。 不家食吉，养贤也。 利涉大川，应乎天也。

这是说，地震的规模非常大，每天都带来新的灾害，同时贤明的领导正在尽责。他们能够停止地震的灾难进一步扩大，这是非常正大的功绩。他们亲临救灾现场，成就他们的贤名。这一巨大的艰险终于会渡过，这是合乎天意的。

This is to say, the scale of the earthquake is superior, it creates new crisis everyday.  Meanwhile, the leaders of China is doing there duty well.  Their work will stop the follow up damage.  This is very positive achievement.  They reach the frontier of the rescue.  It proves that they are sage-like.  The huge crisis caused by the earthquake will be overcame.  This is upright by the means of God.

象曰：天在山中，大畜；君子以多识前言往行，以畜其德。

大地震的现象，就像天塌在了山中。我们应当吸取此次和前人的经验教训，为未来做准备。

This event is like heaven fell in the mountains.  There are a lot of things we should learn from it and the history, to be prepared of future crisis.

这一卦的三，四爻将发生变化。

The third and fourth marks are predicted to change.

九三：良马逐，利艰贞。 曰闲舆卫，利有攸往。 象曰：利有攸往，上合志也。

九三：最强的军力被派出，对克服困难大有好处。平日努力训练的军队，在这里将派上大用场。这个现象说明此次灾难的应对合宜，会取得最佳效果。

The third mark is to be changed from positive to negative.  This means that the best military power has been sent to relief the damage of earthquake.  This is the best solution under current circumstance.  The well trained troops will be the best force to help people out of the crisis.  This means that the action is proper and the best result is expected.

六四：童豕之牿，元吉。象曰：六四元吉，有喜也。

六四：在小牛未长大时，就给它装上横木。这是正确的。及时的救灾行动对灾民来说预示最好的结局。

The fourth mark is to be changed from negative to positive.  This means an in time action is the best action.  It omens a good ending.

变卦为睽，意味着未来。

The predictable future of the earthquake impact is predicted as the symbol of Kui (101011).

睽：小事吉。

睽：从小处，细节着手，将得到好的结局。

The symbol Kui means that if the government will be able to handle every detailed issues, the best ending is expected.

彖曰：睽，火动而上，泽动而下； 二女同居，其志不同行；说而丽乎明， 柔进而上行，得中而应乎刚；是以小事吉。 天地睽，而其事同也； 男女睽，而其志通也；万物睽，而其事类也；睽之时用大矣哉！

就是说，一个是灾区民众增加的能源需求如何满足，一个是淤塞湖如何泄洪。这两大危机，在竞争救灾的人力物力。如果能够得到平衡的处理，照顾到细节，是可以期待良好解决的。这两大危机虽然不同，却都关系到救灾的成败。能够平衡分配救灾人力物力，不忽视任何细节，关系重大啊。

This is to say, the fire goes up, the consuming need of refugees is increasing; while the water goes down, the clogged lakes post flood threaten to the refugees.  These two major crisis is competing for the bailout force.  If the distribution of the force will be evenly distributed, and all details are taken care of, we could expect the best result.  These two crisis are different, but both critical to the success of rescue mission.  It is very important that all details are concerned and the force are evenly distributed.

象曰：上火下泽，睽；君子以同而异。

这个现象是说，上有火下有水，质地相悖，我们必须坚持原则，分而治之。

This event is to say, increasing fire and downpour water, so different crisis, we have to hold the proper course, to deal with them for the ultimate purpose.

Bless the refugees!
