I Ching Ti & Yong: Reading Trends and Changing Lines
Learn Ti and Yong in the Plum Blossom tradition: notice support or pressure, then follow the changing line into the resulting hexagram. A trend to observe, not a fixed verdict.
Start with your position and the situation around you. Then ask what is changing, rather than stopping at the first impression.

Two steps, one continuing question
- Read the present relationship. In this single-changing-line Plum Blossom introduction, the trigram containing the moving line is Yong; the other is Ti. Use the five-phase relationship to notice support or pressure.
- Follow the change. Read the changing line and the resulting hexagram. Compare that symbolic direction with what actually unfolds; a change from pressure toward support is a possibility, not a promise.
- Choose and review. Write down your situation, what you can act on, and what you need to observe next. Return to the same reading as events develop.
English narration
How do you use the I Ching to understand trends, and what may come next? Start with Ti and Yong, then watch how the lines unfold.
First, use the Plum Blossom method of Ti and Yong: how the matter is leaning, and how you stand in it. Then go deeper with the hexagram and its changing line.
Ti is where you stand. Yong is the matter in motion. On the present hexagram, the trigram with the changing line is Yong; the other is Ti. No casting lesson.
Watch the five-element relation. If the matter feeds you, that's supportive: you're helped. If it presses on you, that's straining: you're under pressure.
That's only a first orientation, not a final verdict, and not yet what may come next.
First, on the present hexagram, Ti and Yong give you a first read: support or pressure, and where you stand. Then follow the changing line into the resulting hexagram: the lean of what may come next.
Why two steps? The first read can stop at now. The second shows how the lean may develop, even from pressure toward support. A method, not a verdict.
A trend is a lean you can watch, not a verdict you must obey. Make better choices, not a yes-or-no oracle. Educational only, not fortune-telling. Start here: yiphase.com.

怎样借《易经》理解趋势，以及接下来可能如何发展？先看体用，再看爻的变化。
先用梅花易数的体用方法，看事情偏向哪里、自己处在什么位置；再深入本卦与动爻。
体代表自己所处的位置，用代表正在变化的事情。在本卦中，动爻所在的三爻卦为用，另一卦为体。本片不教具体起卦步骤。
观察五行关系：事情生扶自己，可理解为得到支持；事情克制自己，可理解为承受压力。
这只是初步定位，不是最终判决，也还没有完整展开后续走向。
先在本卦中看体用，辨明支持或压力以及自己的位置；再沿动爻进入变卦，观察事情可能发展的倾向。
为什么分两步？第一步容易停留在当下；第二步继续观察这种倾向可能怎样发展，甚至由压力转向支持。这是方法，不是判决。
趋势是可以观察的倾向，不是必须服从的判决。帮助自己做更好的选择，而不是只讨一个是或否。教育向，不作命运判决。学习入口：yiphase.com。
Traditional source and scope
The traditional Meihua Ti-Yong Zongjue (体用总诀) describes Ti as the subject and Yong as the matter, and considers mutual and resulting hexagrams as the reading develops. It discusses generation, restraint, matching phases and seasonal strength.
This short film selects two relationships to introduce the method; it is not the whole five-phase framework or a casting tutorial. Its two-step order is a teaching route. The illustrations convey ideas, not a fully calculated worked example. The original owner-supplied film and its English captions are unchanged.
传统体用论还涉及互卦、五行生克比和与旺衰。本片选取“生扶与压力”作入门说明，并非完整断法；两步讲解是教学安排。画面为概念示意，不作为逐爻计算的例题。保留站主提供并审核的原片。
