Nourishment
Hexagram 27 of the Yi Jing · 颐 Yí
The figure
The Mountain above Thunder: stillness above, movement below — the image of a mouth, of care for what nourishes.
What this figure illuminates
Nourishment lights up what you feed on — in the broad sense: thoughts, company, attention. You become what you take in; care begins with choosing what you let enter.
For a decision, the figure questions your sources: “what I'm feeding on right now — information, relationships, habits — does it grow me, or consume me?”.
A question to keep
Does what you're feeding on right now help you grow?
