What is the true nature of our relationship?
and received a response of:
27 Nourishing
The Statement of the first hexagram
Nourishing. Pure fortune.
Watch the jaws
and what one seeks to fill one's mouth.
The changing lines
The second line:
With jerking jaws, you disobey
the right ways. Find nourishment
in the nearby hills
instead of journeying far away.
The fourth line:
Moving jaws are fortunate.
Like a glaring tiger, passion runs full,
but there is no fault.
The sixth line:
Through nourishment
in severity comes fortune.
Advance across the great river.
54 Marrying Sister
The Statement of the second hexagram
Advance: misfortune.
No place will bring gain.
The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder below the mountain: nourishing.
The noble one is
careful in speech
and temperate
while eating and drinking.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder over lake:
marrying sister.
The noble one pursues
far-reaching goals
while keeping aware
of possible ruin.
