Great video! It explains very well why the images were chosen in the first place. But still I do not see why the trigrams should be connected to the images the way it is traditionally done. For instance: the earth could just as well be considered solid and durable while the sky is penetrable and ever changing.

From perusing what was available in the "Look Inside" feature, it looks to me like the author really doesn't know what science is. Neither does he know that Yin-Yang theory didn't come along until at least five centuries after the Yijing was first created and should therefore be treated as an afterthought rather than fundamental or foundational. But obviously he isn't alone in not knowing that.
