How can I stop or counteract the staying awake up?
and received a response of:
7 Armies
The Statement of the first hexagram
Armies must be steadfast.
With a great leader
they will find fortune.
They must remain without fault.
The changing lines
The first line:
Armies must march with rules.
Otherwise, whether gain or loss,
there will be misfortune.
The fifth line:
There are birds in the field. Catch them!
No fault when the eldest one
commands armies, but if it is a trainee-
carts of corpses and pure misfortune.
The sixth line:
The great prince takes command.
He founds a country
and supports the clans.
He does not employ petty people.
61 Confidence Within
The Statement of the second hexagram
Confidence within:
Pigs. Fish. Fortune.
Advance across the great river.
Gainful purity.
The Image of the first hexagram
The earth's center
is filled with water.
The noble one supports
the people and cares for
everyone.
The Image of the second hexagram
Wind above the lake:
inner truth.
The noble one
discusses the law
and grants reprieve
from execution.
