Welling

Hexagram 48 is named 井 (jǐng), “Welling”. Other variations include “the well”. Its inner trigram is ☴ (巽 xùn) ground = (風) wind, and its outer trigram is ☵ (坎 kǎn) gorge = (水) water.

Confucius/Legge: Wood penetrates the water and raises it, giving the image of The Well which gives nourishment yet is not exhausted. The dynamic central lines in the second and fifth places indicate that the town site may change, but the well does not. If the rope does not reach the water the well does not serve its purpose. A broken bucket brings about evil.
