When it rains heavily, the rivers and lakes overflow, and it can move back and forth without any effort. This hexagram is the same hexagram (Xun on the lower and Xun on the upper) stacked together. Xun represents wind. The two winds are superimposed, the wind is endless and penetrates every hole. The meaning of Xun is smooth. A humble attitude and behavior will always be beneficial.
