Is the gallery going in the right direction?
and received a response of:
38 Estrangement
The Statement of the first hexagram
Estrangement.
In small matters: fortune.
The changing lines
The third line:
Seeing the wagon dragged back, his oxen
taken, his men's hair and noses cut off.
Not a beginning, but an ending.
14 Great Holdings
The Statement of the second hexagram
Great hold_ings:
supreme
every_where.
The Image of the first hexagram
Fire above, lake below:
estrangement. The noble
one works with others,
but remains an individual.
The Image of the second hexagram
Fire in heaven:
great holdings.
The noble one
curbs evil and fosters good,
and is favored
with heaven's blessings
and commands.
