how does he feel now that i know what he has been saying about me?
and received a response of:
4 Youth
The Statement of the first hexagram
A youth must be steadfast.
I do not seek the naive youth.
The naive youth seeks me.
At the first divination, I explain,
but after three times, it is irritating.
Annoyed, I explain no further.
Nevertheless, a gainful omen.
The changing lines
The second line:
To have the joy of holding your own child,
take a wife. It will lead to fortune:
your children will lead the family.
The third line:
It is useless to marry a woman
who loses herself when she sees
a golden man.
The fourth line:
A distressed and naive youth:
sorrow.
The sixth line:
Nothing is gained by beating a youth.
That is the way to treat raiders.
We gain by preventing misdeeds.
62 Small Crossing
The Statement of the second hexagram
Small crossing. Continue for gainful purity.
Small matters can be done,
but not large matters.
Flying birds leave their sound:
it is unsuitable to go high-
the suitable is below.
Great fortune.
The Image of the first hexagram
A spring gushes
below a mountain:
the naive youth.
The noble one nourishes virtue
with determination.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder above the
mountain: small crossing.
The noble one acts with
more than enough
reverence, destroys
excessive grief, and uses
more than enough
economy.
