Heksagram 57 af 64
Det Milde
巽 · Xùn
Xun (Wind) · Xun (Wind)
Dommen
Sun antyder, at der (under de betingelser, det betegner) vil komme en smule opnåelse og fremgang. Der vil være fordel i bevægelse fremad i hvilken som helst retning. Det vil (også) være fordelagtigt at møde den store mand.
De seks linjer
Linje 1
The first SIX, divided, shows its subject (now) advancing, (now) receding. It would be advantageous for him to have the firm correctness of a brave soldier.
Linje 2
The second NINE, undivided, shows the representative of Sun beneath a couch, and employing diviners and exorcists in a way bordering on confusion. There will be good fortune and no error.
Linje 3
The third NINE, undivided, shows its subject penetrating (only) by violent and repeated efforts. There will be occasion for regret.
Linje 4
The fourth SIX, divided, shows all occasion for repentance (in its subject) passed away. He takes game for its threefold use in his hunting.
Linje 5
The fifth NINE, undivided, shows that with firm correctness there will be good fortune (to its subject). All occasion for repentance will disappear, and all his movements will be advantageous. There may have been no (good) beginning, but there will be a (good) end. Three days before making any changes, (let him give notice of them); and three days after, (let him reconsider them). There will (thus) be good fortune.
Linje 6
The sixth NINE, undivided, shows the representative of penetration beneath a couch, and having lost the axe with which he executed his decisions. However firm and correct he may (try to) be, there will be evil.
