is there any hope for him and me?
and received a response of:
16 Delight
The Statement of the first hexagram
What delight!
Gain by naming allies.
Move armies.
The changing lines
The first line:
Crowing delight.
Misfortune.
The second line:
Upright like a rock in character.
In less than a day
one shows that purity.
Fortune.
The third line:
Wide-eyed delight is regrettable.
If you are late
you will have regrets.
The fourth line:
Through delight, the great attains.
Do not doubt it! Friends gather
like hair in a clasp.
11 Prospering
The Statement of the second hexagram
Prospering: the vile goes,
the great comes.
Fortune. Continue.
The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder explodes,
shaking the earth: delight.
The early kings made music,
glorifying virtue as the
highest offering to God,
and so they were worthy
of their ancestors.
The Image of the second hexagram
Heaven and earth combine:
prospering.
The empress uses wealth
to fulfill the way
of heaven and earth.
She supports the order
of heaven and earth for
people on all sides.
