变爻解读 Interpretation
解读层 / Interpretation layer: Dao Oracle reflective commentary, not direct classical quotation.
四爻变动，鼎足折断，食物倾覆，大凶之兆。承担了超出能力的重任，必然倾覆出丑。变为山风蛊卦，暗示根基腐坏导致崩塌须彻底整治。
The fourth line changing: the cauldron's legs break, spilling the prince's meal — great misfortune. Taking on responsibilities beyond one's capacity leads to humiliating collapse. Transforming into Work on the Decayed warns that rotten foundations cause collapse and demand thorough repair.
