Gate 8: Already accomplished [I Ching 63](Twilight)

Alternate Image A mechanical bird in a cage with a spring sticking out.

Interpretation When you stop, you die. You cannot have perfection, only growth or decay, so what looks like an ending or stopping place is preparation for the next stage.
Fire illuminating the abyss. Chaos and change always lie in wait.

Reversal Be careful of the flaws in supposed perfection, and wary of a search for stasis.
