The hexagram drawn this for this week is #2- Kun/ Receptive or Receiving. It is very often called Earth, but, Master Huang explains that that is not exactly correct. It represents the "function of Earth", which is to open and allow Qian's (Heaven/Initiating) creative energy to intermingle with it. Together, as Yin and Yang energy, the movement of these two together is what began all of the life in form as we know it, according to ancient Chinese cosmology.
