Left FROM right rather than left VS right

analysis of the left brain/right brain development and functions suggest
that the left emphasises the particular and as such emerged from the general
of the right.

When we associate the transcend/transform dichotomy so the left is (a)
emerged from the right and (b) has a 'drive' to transcend, to go beyond...
and as such is high energy focused. Thus hexagram 02 has an emphasis on
transforming, on learning 'good' habits, refining instincts and as such
intergrate with all of the other boxes it shares space with; IOW the goal is
to conserve energy when compared to the transcendence seeking perspective
that expends energy.

What shifts 'something' from the material to the ideal is exageration. The
exageration of the DEVOTION in 02 leads to the emergence of the
SINGLEMINDEDNESS mapped to 01. This particularisation also encapsulates the
singlemindedness such that the focus is WITHIN the box, excluding all other
boxes. This devotion to others becomes total belief in SELF (or whatever the
single context reflects - a la fundamentalism etc)

The refinement of these emergences introduces them as 'archetypes' appearing
'seperate' from their orgins (to the extent that 01 'opposes' 02 etc - gets
very 'Freudian' ;-))

As further examples, the exageration of the 'pruning' in 23 becomes
expressed in the 'spreading the word' in 43. The passive setting an example
(20) is exagerated to be expressed as the proactive inspiration of 34. The
planning/foresight of 16 is exagerated into the proactive development making
small gains upon which to stand upon and become 'influencial'. The 'need' to
make progress by being accepted (35) is manifest in the calculated waiting,
the development of 'contacts' for the future as expressed in 05. The rigid
support of one's beliefs (12) is exagerated to become a proactive focus on
balance and harmony (11). The trickary and retreat of 33 if exagerated leads
to a turn and approach of the 'high' (19) to a degree where the 'high' will
need to 'defer'. The compromise of 06, if exagerated becomes the
uncompromising of 36. etc etc etc [note in all of these the underlying
'vibe' for each hexagram - IOW 06 seeks transforming, learning 'new' habits
to deal efficiently with the context. 36 has a focus on transcending, on
'escaping' to assert one's own context.

Overall we have:

left (transcend) <--- right (transform)

01 <--- 02
43 <--- 23
14 <--- 08
34 <--- 20
09 <--- 16
05 <--- 35
26 <--- 45
11 <--- 12

10 <--- 15
58 <--- 52
38 <--- 39
54 <--- 53
61 <--- 62
60 <--- 56
41 <--- 31
19 <--- 33

13 <--- 07
49 <--- 04
30 <--- 29
55 <--- 59
37 <--- 40
63 <--- 64
22 <--- 47
36 <--- 06

25 <--- 46
17 <--- 18
21 <--- 48
51 <--- 57
42 <--- 32
03 <--- 50
27 <--- 28
24 <--- 44

Happy reflections ;-)
