The judgment
Things drift apart. In small matters there is still good fortune: look for agreement on what is possible.
The image
Fire above, the lake below. So the wise person, even among similar people, keeps their own difference.
The six lines
- Nine at the beginningRemorse disappears. Don't chase the lost horse: it will come back by itself. Meet hostile people too.
- Nine in the second placeYou meet your lord in a narrow lane: no blame.
- Six in the third placeThe wagon dragged back, the oxen held: a hard beginning, but a good end.
- Nine in the fourth placeIsolated by opposition, you meet a kindred person and join them in sincerity: danger, but no blame.
- Six in the fifth placeRemorse disappears. Your kindred one bites through the bark: what blame in going to them?
- Nine at the topIsolated by opposition, you see a pig covered in mud and a wagon full of spirits. First you draw the bow, then lower it: not an enemy, but a suitor. Going on, rain comes, and good fortune.
Commentary
There is distance or misunderstanding between you and someone. Big agreements are hard now, but small ones are possible. Respect differences without trying to erase them. Often what looks like an enemy is only a misunderstanding.
