Small Excess
Hexagram 62 of the Yi Jing · 小过 Xiǎo Guò
The figure
Thunder above the Mountain: movement held back by the immovable, the bird that must not fly too high. The image of the small's excess, of measure in the details.
What this figure illuminates
Preponderance of the Small lights up times that call for attention to the minute rather than to grand gestures. The moment is not for high ambitions but for the scrupulous care of small things.
For a decision, the figure invites you to aim right and low: “is this the time for great scope, or rather for doing the small things well, without overestimating my strength?”.
A question to keep
Is this the time for grand gestures, or scrupulous care of the details?
