Mawangdui and Balkin/Baynes differ on exactly which reading goes with this hexagram. We will deal with Balkin's take on the Baynes. (I haven't dug any further into Balkin's choice of sources, but generally his work seems an updated phrasing of the Willhelm/Baynes.
Cui - Coming Together, then, is the reading, about creating a group by creating a social order, being a leader, bringing one's proper followers to one in preparation. Today I am able to see the failure of the reading to apply to my current circumstances, even as I find myself looking for ways to make it apply. This latter, of course, is the primary trick on which most success with the I Ching rests, similar to the psycho-dynamics of cold reading, what the N-LP folks call "transderivational search". But I digress.
Whether looking at the Mawangdui or the Baynes, this hexagram is the marshy water female younger daughter energy as the outer face and the earth mother primal receiver as the inner face. This is, perhaps, where all reflection on the I Ching should start: Which of the 8 are outer, which of the 8 are inner. And in divinatory casting there would be the question also of changing lines, so there would be the initial outer/initial inner and resulting outer/inner to draw on, teetering back and forth like a balance coming to rest. Let that suffice.
Soon it will change.
