how is his feelings to me?
and received a response of:
24 Returning
The Statement of the first hexagram
Returning. Continue.
In coming and going,
there is neither sickness nor distress.
Companions come without fault.
Returning is its Tao.
In seven days, returning comes.
Gain by having a place to go.
The changing lines
The first line:
Returning from a short distance
is not regrettable. Great fortune.
The second line:
Resting, then returning:
fortunate.
The fourth line:
Returning alone
in the middle of the road.
40 Releasing
The Statement of the second hexagram
Gain in the west and south.
No cause to move forward-
then comes return, and fortune.
To have a place to go: dawn fortune.
The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder in the center of
the earth: returning.
The ancient kings
closed the borders
during the solstices.
Traveling merchants
did not journey. Sovereigns
did not tour the provinces.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder and rain act:
releasing.
The noble one
pardons errors
and forgives offenses.
