《易經》第二掛 – 坤為地
卦意
坤(Hexagram Kun)卦是《易經》六十四卦之第二卦。上上卦
坤為地(坤卦)柔順伸展,;地是廣大的,地上萬物生長,象徵當前關係比較寬鬆而悠閒。
形像說明當前主客關係狀態。相對於我們所在位置來說,地是靜止的,代表當前關係是靜止狀態,變化較少。
相較於乾屬「領導者」之卦,坤則為「追隨者」之卦。 坤卦為十二消息卦,原文『地勢坤,君子以厚德載物』,坤卦六爻皆陰,象徵大地的母親,是最柔順的掛,來者不. 拒可以說是包容萬物,柔順溫和又堅強,,全卦比做「母馬」,馳行大地沒有疆界,地面上相當具有行動力。『厚德載物』中的厚代表日積月累,涓滴成河,同樣的彖傳坤卦「至哉坤元,萬物資生」,日月累積才能產生出的厚度。沒有長期的努力是不會成功的,在人生處境中往往比做以下處境,弱勢對強勢。下屬對長官。子女對父母 ,在這些時刻需要溫順如大地負責盡職,在時機尚未成熟時,寧可厚植實力,收斂心思
坤卦爻辭
初六 – 『屬霜,堅冰至』
〖譯文〗踩踏在霜上,堅硬的冰到來
〖解說〗在寒冬來臨前需心思敏銳,觀察入微,預做準備,一切事物的開始時期有如在霜地和處嚴冬一樣不容易。
六二 -『直方大,不習無不利』
〖譯文〗正直、方正,而大度能容,天生有此德,不待學習,無所不利
〖解說〗在辦任何事時保持君子氣質,只要堅持正直,辦事有規矩方圓,並懷有博大的德業,既就是不用練習什麼其它,就此也足夠順利暢通無阻。
六三 -『含章可貞,或從王事,無成有終』
〖譯文〗包含優美內涵,可以堅持下去,有時侯順從王意做事,沒有成功,但會有一個結局
〖解說〗此一爻有一個時空觀念,若自身有一定的知識素質與道德修養,可以選擇跟隨於王者做事,當此條件還不成熟之時,又要去從事王事帝業,雖不能有所成就但也可以有個歸宿。
六四 -『刮囊,無咎無譽』
〖譯文〗將袋口綁緊,沒有災難也沒有稱譽,刮囊即是守口如瓶,謹言慎行,明哲保身以求得沒有罪咎。
〖解說〗六四為近於君位的多憂之地,又是陰爻居柔位,走到了六四,到了接近君王的位置,因此只能戰戰競競,謹慎小心,以求得不犯錯,這時適宜謹言慎行, 不求有功,但求無過。
六五 -『黃裳,元吉〗
〖譯文〗黃色下裙,大吉
〖解說〗黃裳比喻性情柔順而中庸。六五柔中,又處尊位,有美德而能自然表現於外君臨天下,到了一個極盛時期,此時自當大吉大利
上六 – 『龍戰於野,其血玄黃』
〖譯文〗龍在郊野相鬥,相爭不下兩敗俱傷,滴下黑黃色的血液與泥土相混雜而成玄黃色
〖解說〗此比喻人未能一開始就辨明正邪,剛愎自用,最終疑心致極而引發爭端。另一比喻為小人居君子位,為惡多端,最終事態敗露而引來災難,窮途而沒路,故《象傳》說「其道窮也」
用六 – 『利永貞』
〖譯文〗利於永遠堅持下去
〖解說〗宜於永遠貞定,卜到坤卦六爻全變,也就是「坤之乾」,則以「用六」為占驗。六個陰爻全部都變,符合陰隨陽,及坤卦堅持到底的德性。因此利永貞。用九為群龍無首之象,用六則是從一而終,專一堅定到底,蓋因坤陰之美德在於「貞」,因此用六曰「永貞」,為能永遠謹守貞正之美德。
小結
坤卦六爻皆陰,有陰而無陽,有地而無天,並沒有變化的條件,
既然如此何不謹言慎行,磨練智慧,安身應對,等待時機的來臨?
