30 Brilliance

The Statement of the first hexagram

Brilliance. Gainful purity.
Continue.
Tame the bull: fortune.

The changing lines

The first line:
Walk cautiously
with correct reverence.
No fault.
The third line:
Brilliance sets with the sun.
Do not drum on a crock with your singing.
When great elders' sighs come:
misfortune.
The fifth line:
Weeping and running tears
as if in mourning and grief:
fortunate.

12 Clogging

The Statement of the second hexagram

Clogging by wicked people.

Nothing to be gained,

even from a steadfast prince.

The great goes, the vile comes.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Brightness doubled:
brilliance. The great person
spreads his brilliance
to illuminate
all four directions.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Heaven and earth
separate: clogging.
The noble one acts
with self-restraint
in the face
of punishing hardship,
and avoids glory or riches.
