    The changing lines
    
        
    The fifth line:
    Not enriched by his neighbors.

Nothing but gain.  
     
   
 
    
  
  
 
  
   
  
    39 Hindered

    The Image of the first hexagram
  
  
    Mountains in the middle 
of the earth: humility. 
The wise person

to add to the meager,
weighing and balancing 
fairly.  
      
      
      
      
     
    
        
    The Image of the second hexagram
  
  
    Water on top of the 
mountain: hindered. 
The noble one 
turns inward 
to cultivate virtue.
