13 Kindred

The Statement of the first hexagram

The kindred in the wilderness.
Continue.
Advance across the great river.
Gain by a wise one's purity.

The changing lines

The fourth line:
Mounting their ramparts.
Unable to conquer.
Fortune.
The fifth line:
The kindred first wail and yet later laugh:
great armies are able to meet.
The sixth line:
The kindred at the countryside sacrifice.
No regrets.

36 Smothered Light

The Statement of the second hexagram

Smothered light.

Gain is difficult: persist.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Fire rises into heaven:
kindred. The noble one
groups and sorts
all that must be done.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Brilliance
in the earth's core:
smothered light.
The noble one
governs the multitude
by obscurity-
but with enlightenment.
