Quick answer

Why does the Trung Phu hexagram mention pigs and fish?

The character "đồn" means piglet, and the character "ngư" means fish. Commentators understand the phrase "đồn ngư cát" in several different ways: some understand it as a simple offering, but with a true heart, heaven bears witness; some understand it as the creature hardest to move, and if even it can be moved, how much more so a person; some understand it as a symbol of subtle sensitivity to the weather. These interpretations do not exclude one another.

From the article “What does Hexagram 61, Phong Trạch Trung Phu (中孚), say about inner sincerity, and why can even pigs and fish sense it?”
