No. 51, The Arousing / Shock:
“Shock brings success.
Shock comes --- oh, oh!
Laughing words --- ha, ha!
The shock terrifies for a hundred miles,
And he does not let fall the sacrificial spoon and chalice."
Look out - a big shock is coming.
"A person may receive this hexagram when he has experienced [or is about to experience] an unsettling event, which has shaken his confidence in the ordinary ways he has been relating to his life."
"The shock is to make him aware that these ordinary ways, which he has been taking for granted as correct, have failed to help him in the given situation."
"The severity of the Cosmic shock corresponds to the degree needed to wake the person up." Anthony/Moog
What's it going to take to wake you up? Are you learning the lesson the shock is trying to teach you?
