34 Great Vigor

The Statement of the first hexagram

Great vigor, gainful purity.

The changing lines

The first line:
Vigor in the toes:

advancing brings certain misfortune.

Uprightness brings fortune.
The fourth line:
Pure fortune. Regrets vanish.

The hedge breaks: entanglement is gone.

Strong as a great car's axle blocks.
The sixth line:
A ram butts the hedge and cannot pull out

or escape. No place is gainful.

First difficulty, then fortune.
