27. Nourishment

Judgment

What and how you feed yourself and others — physically, intellectually, and in character. The hexagram asks you to examine the source and quality of what you're taking in.

The Image

Thunder at the foot of the mountain: the image of the mouth, and of the careful attention nourishment deserves.

Guidance

Pay attention to what you're feeding your mind, body, and relationships right now. Provide for others generously, but also be honest about what you truly need to sustain yourself.
