Commentary

Wind and thunder bestow increase, and the transformation leads to water above wood — the inexhaustible well of the Well. Six eyes gleam with eagerness, each desiring to reach a destination. But all halt, their baggage still unpacked, waiting for the dawn to break. Three people — 'six eyes' — are poised to depart but hold themselves in check, not yet setting out. The shared anticipation creates a charged stillness: everyone is ready, but the right moment has not arrived. They wait for first light to travel safely. From Increase to the Well, the dynamic is one of resources gathered and held in readiness. The well nourishes without being depleted; the travelers who wait for dawn rather than rushing into darkness demonstrate the Well's principle: patient service at the right time yields far more than impulsive action.
