what does after the end mean in this context?
and received a response of:
63 Already Across
The Statement of the first hexagram
Already across. Continue.
Small gain: be steadfast.
In the beginning, fortune.
At the end, disorder.
The changing lines
The fourth line:
Leaking: caulk with rags.
The whole day: be on guard.
49 Reform
The Statement of the second hexagram
Reform: on one's own day,
confidence is won-
making, pervasive, gainful, and pure.
Regrets vanish.
The Image of the first hexagram
Water on top of fire:
already across. The wise
one prepares for calamity
by forethought.
The Image of the second hexagram
Fire in the middle of the
lake: reform. The noble one
orders the calendar
by the seasons.
