63 Already Across

The Statement of the first hexagram

Already across. Continue.

Small gain: be steadfast.

In the beginning, fortune.

At the end, disorder.

The changing lines

The first line:
Pulling his wheels, flooding the rear.

No fault.
The fifth line:
The eastern neighbor slaughters an ox,

not like the western neighbor's sacrifice

and worship: faithfully receives his happiness.
The sixth line:
Dunking his head.

Severe.

52 Stilling

The Statement of the second hexagram

One stills one's back
and does not move one's body.
There is movement in one's courtyard,
but one does not see one's people.
No fault.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Water on top of fire:
already across. The wise
one prepares for calamity
by forethought.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Doubled mountains:
stillness.
The noble one
does not consider matters
beyond his position.
