61 Confidence Within

The Statement of the first hexagram

Confidence within:

Pigs. Fish. Fortune.

Advance across the great river.

Gainful purity.

The changing lines

The third line:
Encountering an enemy:

Some drum, some halt.

Some sob, some sing.
The fourth line:
The moon is nearly full:

one of the horses vanishes. No fault.
The sixth line:
The sound of a white horse

rising to heaven: pure misfortune.

43 Decisiveness

The Statement of the second hexagram

Decisiveness. Proclaim in the royal court.

Trust in the commands. Be stern.

There will be severity.

Announce to your own city.

There is no gain in going to war.

Gain by having a place to go.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Wind above the lake:
inner truth.
The noble one
discusses the law
and grants reprieve
from execution.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Lake rising to heaven:
decisiveness. The noble one
bestows wealth
to those below
and shuns dwelling
on his own virtues.
