What will happen, if Maria cslls me again tomorrow and I pick up?
and received a response of:
43 Decisiveness
The Statement of the first hexagram
Decisiveness. Proclaim in the royal court.
Trust in the commands. Be stern.
There will be severity.
Announce to your own city.
There is no gain in going to war.
Gain by having a place to go.
The changing lines
The first line:
Strong in the feet:
Going forward, there will be no triumph
due to mistakes.
The fourth line:
Buttocks without skin: one walks uneasily.
Follow like a sheep and regrets vanish.
Instead, words are heard but not believed.
The fifth line:
The amaranth mound decisively cleared:
the middle way is without fault.
The sixth line:
No signals:
the end will be misfortune.
18 Poison
The Statement of the second hexagram
Poison brings the great continuing.
Advance across the great river.
Before starting: three days.
After starting: three days.
The Image of the first hexagram
Lake rising to heaven:
decisiveness. The noble one
bestows wealth
to those below
and shuns dwelling
on his own virtues.
The Image of the second hexagram
Wind below the mountain:
poison. The noble one
stirs the people
and nourishes virtue.
