13 Kindred

The Statement of the first hexagram

The kindred in the wilderness.
Continue.
Advance across the great river.
Gain by a wise one's purity.

The changing lines

The first line:
The kindred at the gate.
No fault.
The third line:
Armed and lying in ambush
under the thicket. Looming above
is their high mound.
For three years, there is no rising.
The fourth line:
Mounting their ramparts.
Unable to conquer.
Fortune.
The sixth line:
The kindred at the countryside sacrifice.
No regrets.

8 Joining

The Statement of the second hexagram

Joining brings fortune.
Repeating the divination by yarrow stalks
brings a supreme and lasting omen
without fault.
Those who are not sure
will join the plan.
Those who are late
will meet misfortune.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Fire rises into heaven:
kindred. The noble one
groups and sorts
all that must be done.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Water pooled
on the earth: joining.
The early kings founded
the myriad nations,
and kept close ties
with all the leaders.
