Hexagram 16 — 豫 (Yù), Enthusiasm
Above: ☳ 震 Thunder Below: ☷ 坤 Earth
The Judgment
利建侯行师。
Enthusiasm unites the masses — favorable to organize and to move people together.
The Image (Daxiang)
「雷出地奋，豫；先王以作乐崇德，殷荐之上帝，以配祖考。」Thunder bursts from the earth — the kings made music to exalt virtue and honor the ancestors.—— 《周易·大象传》（The Image Commentary）
The Tuan Commentary
彖曰：豫，刚应而志行，顺以动，豫。豫顺以动，故天地如之，而况建侯行师乎？天地以顺动，故日月不过，而四时不忒。圣人以顺动，则刑罚清而民服。豫之时义大矣哉！——《易传·彖传》

In Plain Terms
Momentum through shared enthusiasm — organize and move. When you receive this hexagram, hold the judgment beside your question: it describes a posture and a season, not a script.
