Guài (夬) — Breakthrough

Lake above Heaven — five yang lines and one final yin, almost all the way through. "Resolutely make the matter known at the court of the king." Full resolve, public announcement, no private negotiation with what has to go. The breakthrough requires complete commitment — a partial breakthrough isn't one. What's left of the obstruction needs to be named clearly before it can actually be removed.
