27 Nourishing

The Statement of the second hexagram

Nourishing. Pure fortune.

Watch the jaws

and what one seeks to fill one's mouth.

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

Thunder below the mountain: nourishing.
The noble one is
careful in speech
and temperate
while eating and drinking.
