29 Pit

The Statement of the first hexagram

Repeated pits.
Have confidence.
Tether your heart and continue.
Action brings honor.

The changing lines

The first line:
Pit within a pit.
Entering an underground vault:
misfortune.
The second line:
The pit has dangers.
Inquiries get little.
The third line:
Drumbeats come: stuck in danger.
Entering the underground vault
will be of no use.
The fifth line:
The pit is not yet flooded to the brim.
No fault.

36 Smothered Light

The Statement of the second hexagram

Smothered light.

Gain is difficult: persist.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Flowing water comes:
repeated pits.
The noble one moves
with constant virtue, and
repeatedly teaches
the critical matters.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Brilliance
in the earth's core:
smothered light.
The noble one
governs the multitude
by obscurity-
but with enlightenment.
