同人 · Tóng Rén — Fellowship with Humanity
King Wen Sequence #13 (同人 Tóng Rén — Fellowship with Humanity) embodies bonfire beacon shining beneath the open vault of heaven. Assigned to the Li Fire Palace (离宫八卦 · Solar Radiance) · 归魂卦 (World Line 3 / Response Line 6) and resonant with Late Autumn & Early Winter Sovereign Heaven (立冬乾金 · 寒露—小雪), its six-line binary vector (101111) pairs 离 Li (Clinging Radiance) at the root with 乾 Qian (Creative Sovereignty) at the crown.
《大象》：天與火，同人；君子以類族辨物。 ｜ 《彖传》：同人，柔得位得中，而應乎乾，曰同人。同人曰，同人于野，亨。利涉大川，乾行也。文明以健，中正而應，君子正也。唯君子為能通天下之志。
Visual Archetype: town square hearth and shared lantern. When Heaven (Metal) interacts with Fire (Fire), the primary strategic mandate centers on building open-source communities and public alliances. Its Polarity Opposite (Cuo Gua · 错卦) is #7 师 (Disciplined Organization), its Overturned Inverse (Zong Gua · 综卦) is #14 大有 (Abundant Possession), and its Nuclear Core (Hu Gua · 互卦) reveals #44 姤 (Unexpected Encounter).
离宫 · 世爻第3爻 / 应爻第6爻
For decision-makers consulting 同人 (Tóng Rén) regarding building open-source communities and public alliances, the hexagram highlights the interplay between Fire foundation and Metal manifestation under the Fire Palace. Rather than generic haste, align execution with Late Autumn & Early Winter Sovereign Heaven (立冬乾金 · 寒露—小雪) rhythms and inspect whether your natal BaZi chart favors Fire, Metal, or Fire as its Favorable Element (喜用神).
