Hexagram 8 — Holding Together (比)

Pattern Snapshot

This pattern appears when alignment and belonging matter.
The question is: who and what truly matches?

Timing Lens

Seek the right alliances. Don’t cling to the wrong ones.
Union is good when it’s real; false unity costs more than solitude.

Choose the group, the partner, the path that supports integrity.

Reflection

• Where do I genuinely belong?

• What connection strengthens me?

• What tie drains me?

Closing

Hold together with what is true. Release what is not.
