05 Calculated Waiting, Serving
In a context of perseverance we utilise control.
In hexagram 05 when danger exists (one's 'moment' has not yet come) one needs to keep one's balance by bidding one's time and let external events follow their course; serving and cultivating as we wait.
How does this hexagram become more entangled with something/someone? Hexagram 3
03 Sprouting
In a context of enlightenment, a new beginning, we utilise control.
Trigrams : enlightenment (bottom), control (top) : with/from enlightenment comes control. [water over thunder]
The mud from which 03 has emerged is best described by analogy to the under-stated qualities of hexagram 20, admiring (passive motivation - setting an example, being an example). There is a sense here of a new bud emerging and turning itself to face the source of its nourishment - the sun - and so an attractive source that aids in, that motivates, development (as covered in hexagram 20).
A situation covering analogy to a bud breaking through the surface (the enlightening) and turning to its source of nourishment (the 'Sun') and so controlling.
