64 Not Yet Across

The Statement of the first hexagram

Not yet across. Continue.

The young fox, nearly across,

soaks its tail.

No place is gainful.

The changing lines

The first line:
Flooding his tail. Sorrow.
The second line:
Pulls his wheels.

Pure fortune.
The fourth line:
Pure fortune. Regrets vanish. Terrifyingly

attack the Gui Fang. In three years,

there will be rewards in a great country.

Pure fortune. No regrets.
The sixth line:
There is confidence in drinking wine.

No fault. Flooding one's head.

Have confidence in a vow.

24 Returning

The Statement of the second hexagram

Returning. Continue.
In coming and going,
there is neither sickness nor distress.
Companions come without fault.
Returning is its Tao.
In seven days, returning comes.
Gain by having a place to go.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Fire on top of water:
not yet across. The wise
one distinguishes things
carefully, and puts them
in their places.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Thunder in the center of
the earth: returning.
The ancient kings
closed the borders
during the solstices.
Traveling merchants
did not journey. Sovereigns
did not tour the provinces.
