Hexagram 20 is named 觀 (guān), “Viewing”. Other variations include “contemplation (view)” and “looking up”. Its inner trigram is ☷ (坤 kūn) field = (地) earth, and its outer trigram is ☴ (巽 xùn) ground = (風) wind.
Viewing
Confucius/Legge: Observation from above — from the trigram of Flexibility surmounting the trigram of Docility. The ruler is in his correct central position, and thus exhibits his lessons to all below. He has purified himself, but not yet sacrificed. All beneath look to him and are transformed. When we contemplate the spirit-like way of heaven, we see how the four seasons proceed without error. The sages, in accordance with this spirit-like way, laid down their instructions, and all under heaven yield submission to them.
