35 Advancing

The Statement of the first hexagram

Marquis Kang receives gifts

of many breeding horses,

welcoming them three times

in one day.

The changing lines

The fourth line:
Advancing like rodents.

Pure harshness.
The sixth line:
Advancing with their horns.

Secure by exerting: attack the town.

Harsh fortune. No fault,

but persistence brings sorrow.

2 Earth

The Statement of the second hexagram

Earth: maker, everywhere.
Gain from a mare's purity.
The noble one wanting to go far
is first confused, but later finds guidance.
Gain friends in the west and south,
Lose friends in the east and north.
Peace: this is a sign of fortune.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Brightness emerges above
the earth: advancing.
The noble one brightens
her own virtue.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Ground as the power
of earth:
the noble one generously
supports all things.
