Hexagram 46 av 64
Att Skjuta Uppåt
升 · Shēng
Kun (Earth) · Xun (Wind)
Domen
Shăng antyder att det (under dess förhållanden) kommer bli stora framsteg och framgång. Genom att söka (med de egenskaper som antyds i den) möta den store mannen, behöver dess subjekt inte ha någon ängslan. Framryckning mot söder kommer vara lyckosam.
De sex linjerna
Linje 1
The first SIX, divided, shows its subject advancing upwards with the welcome (of those above him). There will be great good fortune.
Linje 2
The second NINE, undivided, shows its subject with that sincerity which will make even the (small) offerings of the vernal sacrifice acceptable. There will be no error.
Linje 3
The third NINE, undivided, shows its subject ascending upwards (as into) an empty city.
Linje 4
The fourth SIX, divided, shows its subject employed by the king to present his offerings on mount Khî. There will be good fortune; there will be no mistake.
Linje 5
The fifth six, divided, shows its subject firmly correct, and therefore enjoying good fortune. He ascends the stairs (with all due ceremony).
Linje 6
The sixth six, divided, shows its subject advancing upwards blindly. Advantage will be found in a ceaseless maintenance of firm correctness.
