3 Sprouting

The Statement of the first hexagram

Sprouting begins everywhere,
abundant and pure.
No need to go far:
gain by naming allies.

The changing lines

The first line:
A boulder and a willow.
It is gainful to dwell staunchly here.
Gain by naming allies.
The second line:
How like the difficulty of sprouting!
Rushing like a team of horses: it is not a raider
who woos, yet the chaste girl refuses.
She waits ten years for betrothal.

29 Pit

The Statement of the second hexagram

Repeated pits.
Have confidence.
Tether your heart and continue.
Action brings honor.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Clouds and thunder: sprouting. The noble one
considers the principles.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Flowing water comes:
repeated pits.
The noble one moves
with constant virtue, and
repeatedly teaches
the critical matters.
