What will happen if I get some beers this weekend?
and received a response of:
62 Small Crossing
The Statement of the first hexagram
Small crossing. Continue for gainful purity.
Small matters can be done,
but not large matters.
Flying birds leave their sound:
it is unsuitable to go high-
the suitable is below.
Great fortune.

The changing lines
The second line:
Crossing to one's ancestors,
meeting one's dead mother.
Not reaching as far as one's king:
meeting his minister. No fault.

takes another in the cave.

The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder above the
mountain: small crossing.
The noble one acts with
more than enough

excessive grief, and uses
more than enough
economy.

The Image of the second hexagram
The lake overwhelms
the trees: great excess.
The noble one stands alone
without fear,
and can withdraw
from the world
without sorrow.
