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 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.
