9 Smallness Tames

The Statement of the first hexagram

Smallness tames. Persevere.
Dense clouds, no rain
at my western border.

The changing lines

The third line:
Carriage spokes halted.
Husband and wife quarrel.
The fifth line:
Have confidence. Entwine
with your neighbor for wealth.
The sixth line:
Rain is done, all is in place. Respect and virtue
are full. Yet a woman's chastity is imperiled.
When the moon is nearly full,
the prince attacks: misfortune.

19 Arrival

The Statement of the second hexagram

The arrival of the maker: everywhere,
giving and pure.
When the eighth moon comes,
there will be misfortune.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Wind moving high
in heaven: smallness tames.
The noble one acts
with restraint, culture,
and morals.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Earth by the lake: arrival.
The noble one
is inexhaustible
in teaching,
and boundlessly protects
the people.
