Direct answer
King Wen 16, Enthusiasm, is the first generation member of 震 Palace. Its fixed Liu Yao chart has upper 震, lower 坤, Shi on line 1, Ying on line 4, and six reproducible Najia rows; dated and interpretive fields remain separate.
Definitions and prerequisites
Use the fixed upper 震 and lower 坤 structure, the 震-Palace generation table, the trigram Najia rows, and the palace-relative Five-Element formula. Preserve bottom-up line order; reversing the rows creates a different chart.
Method or reference rule
Read bottom to top: 乙未⚋ · 乙巳⚋ · 乙卯⚋ · 庚午⚊ · 庚申⚋ · 庚戌⚋. Derive every Six Relative from 震 Palace 木, mark Shi at line 1 and Ying at line 4, and leave all day-dependent fields unset until a dated cast is supplied.
Worked example
A deterministic check flips line 4 of Enthusiasm and reaches King Wen 2, The Receptive. That single-bit result can be reproduced without interpretation; an actual changed hexagram uses only lines whose stored cast values are 6 or 9.
Closest failure case
Assigning permanent Six Spirits or a permanent verdict to Enthusiasm is incorrect. Six Spirits depend on the casting day stem, while movement comes from stored values 6 or 9. The same fixed hexagram can therefore appear in different dated charts without changing its base Najia rows.
Sources, interpretation and limits
This is the Liu Yao structural chart for Enthusiasm, not a general “meaning of hexagram 16” page. Six Spirits, month/day influence, void, actual moving lines, Yongshen, and an outcome require a dated cast; the fixed identity cannot prove what will happen.
The Zhouyi source supports the numbered hexagram identity and received text; the historical manual supports the named Eight-Palace list; OpenFate code supports the displayed current Najia table.
Verification checklist
Save the question, cast time, timezone, face convention, six line values, source edition and product version whenever they can change the result.
- Reproduce the six stored line values before interpretation.
- Name the method, edition and product settings used.
- Cite the decisive chart facts instead of one dramatic label.
- Use observable records and qualified advice for high-stakes decisions.
