5 Waiting

The Statement of the first hexagram

Waiting. Stay confident:

there is light everywhere.

Pure fortune.

Advance across the great river.

The changing lines

The first line:
Waiting in the countryside.

Gain by being steadfast.

Be without fault.
The second line:
Waiting in the sand.

The small will talk.

At last, good fortune.
The third line:
Waiting in the mud

draws raiders to arrive.
The fifth line:
Waiting with wine and food.

Pure fortune.
The sixth line:
Entering into a cave and

finding uninvited strangers.

Three people come. Honor them

and in the end there will be good fortune.

23 Splitting

The Statement of the second hexagram

Splitting; no gain

in having a place to go.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Clouds rising to heaven:
waiting. The noble one
drinks, eats,
and feasts with joy.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

The mountain resting on
the earth: splitting.
When the high
are generous
to those below,
all dwell in peace.
