12 Clogging

The Statement of the first hexagram

Clogging by wicked people.

Nothing to be gained,

even from a steadfast prince.

The great goes, the vile comes.

The changing lines

The second line:
Wrapped in flattery, the vile prosper.

Great people are clogged. Continue.
The third line:
Wrapped in shame.

44 Copulating

The Statement of the second hexagram

Copulating: the woman is powerful.
Do not marry such a woman.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

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

The Image of the second hexagram

Wind under heaven:
copulating.
The sovereign
issues commands
to the four quarters.
