Let's say you draw 1.5.

Do you think of that as relating to Hex 14, or do you see it as relating to 14.5?

13 influence on 1 elicits a change/distortion into general properties of 14.

or more so:

Line 5
"One may be riding high but one needs some guidance[direction]."

Singlemindedness, combined with a context of making partnerships with the like-minded (hexagram 13), leads to the behaviour of becoming the center of proactive directing and advancement (hexagram 14). To stay on the path of singlemindedness you need to formalise and so structure your actions by establishing a degree of uniformity (hexagram 7).

"elicits a change/distortion into general properties of 14."

'General properties' is the way I've been looking at it, yeah.

At the risk of flogging a dead horse (that poor old horse - never mind, it's dead) I don't see it as 'change/distortion INTO', but more as 'meaningful connection with'.

sure - gets into two types of change, as in core change vs shape-shifting, surface change.

Thus the characterstics of shape shifting reflect context distorting text enough to appear as if connected with 14. This position, if we zoom-in, in fact maps to a dodecagram that is neither 1 nore 14 but a quality in between.

Core change is a true conversion to 14, a 'transcendence', a new beginning etc and as such is revolutionary compared to shape shifting that is evolutionary. The suggestion in general is that shape shifting is more common.

The previous text shows what context to introduce to neutralise the existing - if it is 13 then introduce 07 and so maintain the journey through 01.(but dont force 07 too much, otherwise it will elicit change!)

shapeshifting is more about balancing than going beyond...
