Breakthrough · Ze Tian Guai
Breakthrough — the last trace of the petty, flushed into the light.
The traditional reading
Hexagram 43 is the moment of decision when a persistent falsehood must finally be named and removed. The resolution must be announced openly — not whispered — so that everyone knows where the line stands. Act with resolve and without fanfare; do not make the correction a spectacle or a grudge.
