38 Estrangement

The Statement of the first hexagram

Estrangement.

In small matters: fortune.

The changing lines

The first line:
Remorse vanishes. Do not search:

a lost horse returns by itself.

When seeing the wicked, make no mistakes.
The sixth line:
Strange sights: a pig shouldering mud,

a cartload of ghosts. One first draws a bow,

then lowers it. No raider- a groom. Go.

Meet the rain, and with it, fortune.

40 Releasing

The Statement of the second hexagram

Gain in the west and south.
No cause to move forward-
then comes return, and fortune.
To have a place to go: dawn fortune.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Fire above, lake below:
estrangement. The noble
one works with others,
but remains an individual.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Thunder and rain act:
releasing.
The noble one
pardons errors
and forgives offenses.
