I Ching Hexagram 18: Work on the Decayed, astrological interpretation

I-Ching Category

Interpretation: There is a notion of repair present when it comes to things that may have crumbled, fallen into ruin, broken, or spoiled.
The first step consists of taking stock of the situation, so determining what there is, what there was, and what is no longer, and then skillfully and successfully separating out the best parts for future use.
Next, there is a notion of enhancement and improvement so that any mistakes that were once made will not be repeated, so that the same deterioration will never be repeated, so that things are easier to maintain, and so that we have a more optimistic attitude.
It’s like an artisan who comes back to their work, taking the time to carve out the smallest details using their expertise and skills.

Astrological points to pay attention to: In terms of archetypes, we may often find the sign of Virgo and the 6th house here, which represent good analytical skills, expertise, and perfectionism for carrying out these sorts of meticulous tasks. This is a part of this archetype’s temperament.
The notions of corruption, disintegration, and decomposition may lead the forces of Pluto to be involved, or sometimes those of Neptune, though in some cases there is simply a dissonant aspect.
The planet Uranus may also come into play when it comes to our vision of the future or a projection onto whatever we want to change or implement, with the goal of sublimating the system.
In any case, there is a good, healthy alliance between the forces of Earth and those of Air, which both may retain their practical and pragmatic aspects and may also be able to deal with concepts, plans, curiosity, and intuition.

Remarks: This hexagram evokes notions of reconstruction, reform, and refurbishment. You have to accept old things as they are in order to change them and rebuild them in a different way.
