5 Waiting

The Statement of the first hexagram

Waiting. Stay confident:

there is light everywhere.

Pure fortune.

Advance across the great river.

The changing lines

The first line:
Waiting in the countryside.

Gain by being steadfast.

Be without fault.
The third line:
Waiting in the mud

draws raiders to arrive.
The fourth line:
Waiting in a bloody cave.

Get out!
The sixth line:
Entering into a cave and

finding uninvited strangers.

Three people come. Honor them

and in the end there will be good fortune.

6 Dispute

The Statement of the second hexagram

Dispute: keep confident

even if blocked and alarmed.

In the middle, good fortune,

but in the end, misfortune.

Gain by seeing a great person.

Do not advance across the great river.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

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

The Image of the second hexagram

Heaven and water clash:
dispute. The noble one
devises the right beginning
in all matters.
