Lake (☱) — Joyous

Two yang lines beneath one yin — joy, openness, the quality of genuine exchange. Lake is the youngest daughter, the joyous principle, the element of pleasure, speech, and the satisfaction that comes from authentic connection. It appears in fifteen hexagrams, carrying qualities of joy, expression, and the openness that refreshes without depleting. The lake receives rain and gives back reflection; the exchange is its nature.
