10. Determining the number of the hexagram in the Table 1

The Table 1 shows the numbers of 64 hexagrams according to octanalysis (in brackets – according to King Wen). The following are octanalytic interpretations of 64 hexagrams in the sequence of octanalysis.

The sequence of hexagrams according to octanalysis, which we will also call “harmonious sequence of hexagrams”, is formed as follows.

Eight hexagrams #1 – #8 successively describe combinations of a person-situation: 00-, 70-, 60-, 50-, 40-, 30-, 20-, 10-combination. This sequence of hexagrams #1 – #8 corresponds to the harmonious 07654321-hierarchy of instances of the human psyche in combination with instance 0-Source/Kun of the situation. Similarly, the sequence of the next eight hexagrams #9 – #16 is formed in combination with instance 7-Imagination / Qian of the situation, etc.

When moving from one group of eight hexagrams to the next group of eight hexagrams, the instance of the situation changes in accordance with the harmonious 07654321-hierarchy of instances of the psyche.

Thus, the sequence of 64 hexagrams according to octanalysis corresponds to the harmonious 07654321-hierarchy of instances of both a person and the situation. Therefore, the sequence of hexagrams according to octanalysis is called “harmonious sequence of hexagrams”.

This means that any transition from the previous to the next hexagram according to octanalysis is harmonious for a person. For example, a person is in a state that corresponds to hexagram #14 according to octanalysis. Then octanalysis recommends that a person make efforts to move to a state that corresponds to hexagram #15 according to octanalysis. Such a transition is harmonious for a person.
