Hexagram 59 van 64
De Verstrooiing
渙 · Huàn
Xun (Wind) · Kan (Water)
Het Oordeel
Hwân duidt aan dat er (onder zijn voorwaarden) vooruitgang en succes zal zijn. De koning begeeft zich naar zijn voorouderlijke tempel; en het zal voordelig zijn de grote rivier over te steken. Het zal voordelig zijn om juist en standvastig te zijn.
De zes lijnen
Lijn 1
The first SIX, divided, shows its subject engaged in rescuing (from the impending evil) and having (the assistance of) a strong horse. There will be good fortune.
Lijn 2
The second NINE, undivided, shows its subject, amid the dispersion, hurrying to his contrivance (for security). All occasion for repentance will disappear.
Lijn 3
The third SIX, divided, shows its subject discarding any regard to his own person. There will be no occasion for repentance.
Lijn 4
The fourth SIX, divided, shows its subject scattering the (different) parties (in the state); which leads to great good fortune. From the dispersion (he collects again good men standing out, a crowd) like a mound, which is what ordinary men would not have thought of.
Lijn 5
The fifth NINE, undivided, shows its subject amidst the dispersion issuing his great announcements as the perspiration (flows from his body). He scatters abroad (also) the accumulations in the royal granaries. There will be no error.
Lijn 6
The topmost NINE, undivided, shows its subject disposing of (what may be called) its bloody wounds, and going and separating himself from its anxious fears. There will be no error.
