Unified Pattern — Pair of two — YANG + YIN mutant, hexagram 10 (Jie, Deliverance — King Wen no. 40)
One of 256 distinct Unified Patterns — a 12×12 Jacquard construction where every cell's colour is read off a single hexagram of the Yi King, hexagram Jie, Deliverance. Binary numbering 0–63; in brackets, the traditional King Wen number.
Family Pair of two — YANG + YIN mutant, one of the 8 admissible families (out of 15) in the system's classification — see the lexicon for how families are built and admitted.
The pattern's three colour classes, set independently — change one, the other two stay put.
One tint, read in light and dark — a luminance reading, not three colours with two greyed out.
Reading the cell, line by line
The 144 cells of the 12×12 cell fall into six levels of 24 cells, one per line of the hexagram. Where the line is solid (yang), the level takes its colours from the family's YANG grid; where it is broken (yin), from its YANG mutant grid. Count of each colour, level by level:
| Level | Line | Grid read | Colour 1 (violet) | Colour 2 (magenta) | Colour 3 (orange) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | broken | YANG mutant | 8 | 8 | 8 |
| 2 | solid | YANG | 8 | 8 | 8 |
| 3 | broken | YANG mutant | 8 | 8 | 8 |
| 4 | solid | YANG | 8 | 8 | 8 |
| 5 | broken | YANG mutant | 8 | 8 | 8 |
| 6 | broken | YANG mutant | 8 | 8 | 8 |
| Whole cell | 48 | 48 | 48 | ||
The three colours are exactly balanced: 48 cells each. The cell is unchanged by reflection in the vertical axis, reflection in the horizontal axis, a half turn.
Hexagram 10 (King Wen no. 40) — Deliverance
Upper trigram ☳ Zhen (The Arousing, Thunder); lower trigram ☵ Kan (The Abysmal, Water).
Image
Thunder and Rain arise: the image of deliverance. The tension built up in the air is finally released, the storm breaks and purifies what it crosses — a resolution that soothes rather than destroys. This is the figure of relief after constraint. Thus the noble one forgives faults and shows clemency toward wrongs: true deliverance does not stop at oneself, it extends also to those still held captive by their own mistakes.
Judgement — Resolution
The knots of obstruction come loose, the passage opens. What seemed inextricable ends up, with time and the right tension released at the right moment, coming undone by itself. This line teaches that deliverance rarely comes by force — it comes when pressure finally finds its rightful outlet.

Same shape, other colourings
Two involutions leave this motif's shape unchanged and only permute its three tints — verified across every family and every hexagram in the corpus, not just this one: swapping the pairing used to read the hexagram (YANG/YANG-mutant ↔ YIN/YIN-mutant), and taking the hexagram's binary complement (63 − 10 = 53). Toggle them below; the tiling never changes, only the colours do.
