Hexagram 11 – ䷊ – PEACE.

Hexagram 11 is named 泰 (tài), "Pervading". Other variations include "Peace" and "greatness". Its inner (lower) trigram is ☰ (乾 qián) force = (天) heaven, and its outer (upper) trigram is ☷ (坤 kūn) field = (地) earth.

I never imagined that doing such a job could actually infuse this specific sentiment. It was a great exercise trying to carve the line as similar as possible, nine lines could make you so humble.

Letter carving commission on Italian slate.
