Great Power · Lei Tian Da Zhuang
Great Power — strength that has earned the right to move.
The traditional reading
Hexagram 34 is the great power of the thunder that moves only when it should. Force is available to you now — but power is proven not by its size, but by its appropriateness. Do not push against the proper order; move with it, and let your strength arrive like weather rather than like a shove.
