40 Releasing

The Statement of the first hexagram

Gain in the west and south.
No cause to move forward-
then comes return, and fortune.
To have a place to go: dawn fortune.

The changing lines

The fourth line:
Releasing the big toe.
Friends arrive, and with them, confidence.
The fifth line:
The superior one rules by releasing. Fortune.
One has the confidence
of the common people.
The sixth line:
The duke uses this chance to shoot a hawk
from the top of the ramparts.
Nothing but gain in capturing.
