Hexagram 49 革 — Revolution

Tuesday, 2026-08-11 · same hexagram for every reader today

第49卦 革

Revolution (Wilhelm–Baynes: Revolution (Molting))

Upper 上卦 dui · Lower 下卦 li · Changing line 动爻 1

"Change is believed on the day it is completed, not the day it is announced."

己日乃孚,革而当。


Molting: the old order has genuinely expired and transformation is right. Time it precisely, carry the people's trust, and regret vanishes only when the change is thorough.

水火相息,其时大矣。己日乃孚,革而信之;顺天应人,悔乃亡。

体 · 用 — the day's essential qi and its acting agent

体 (Ti) — 兑 Lake

Day-qi element: Metal · joyous openness

用 (Yong) — 离 Fire

Changing line 1 sits here · clinging brightness

Per-line commentary (384 texts) is a phase-2 addition — until then, the changing line's position and its 体/用 role is already a real, traditional reading. How this is calculated →

Want to read the Yi Jing yourself — not just check the daily hexagram?

Method: derived by the Plum Blossom (梅花易数) date method — traditionally attributed to Shao Yong 邵雍, in fact a later Ming-era compilation — from the day's lunar data using the same night-zi (夜子时) convention as our almanac.
