will me and Ik get closer once again?
and received a response of:
26 Great Restraint
The Statement of the first hexagram
Gain by being upright.
Not eating at home brings fortune.
Advance across the great river.
The changing lines
The third line:
A good horse chases, but gain is difficult.
Be upright. Prepare the chariots daily
and be on guard.
Gain by having a place to go.
41 Decrease
The Statement of the second hexagram
Decrease. Have confidence.
Great fortune. No fault
if one can be upright.
Gain by having a place to go.
How should one act?
Two square bamboo baskets
can be used in offering.
The Image of the first hexagram
Heaven in the center of a
mountain: great restraint.
The noble one
frequently studies
the words and prophesies
of the past, and thereby
nourishes virtue.
The Image of the second hexagram
Lake below mountain:
decrease. The noble one
halts his anger
and curbs his desires.
