what would be the outcome of telling CH I don't want to go forward?
and received a response of:
52 Stilling
The Statement of the first hexagram
One stills one's back
and does not move one's body.
There is movement in one's courtyard,
but one does not see one's people.
No fault.
The changing lines
The second line:
Stilling one's calves.
One cannot raise one's followers.
One's heart is unhappy.
The third line:
Stilling one's waist.
Splitting the muscles of the back.
Cruelty smokes one's heart.
The fourth line:
Stilling his trunk.
No fault.
The fifth line:
Stilling his jaws.
Speech is orderly.
Regrets vanish.
6 Dispute
The Statement of the second hexagram
Dispute: keep confident
even if blocked and alarmed.
In the middle, good fortune,
but in the end, misfortune.
Gain by seeing a great person.
Do not advance across the great river.
The Image of the first hexagram
Doubled mountains:
stillness.
The noble one
does not consider matters
beyond his position.
The Image of the second hexagram
Heaven and water clash:
dispute. The noble one
devises the right beginning
in all matters.
