What should I expect from this relationship?
and received a response of:
28 Great Excess
The Statement of the first hexagram
The ridgepole sags.
Gain by having a place to go.
Continue.
The changing lines
The second line:
A withered trunk bursts with fresh vetch.
An old man takes a wife. Nothing but gain.
31 Feeling
The Statement of the second hexagram
Feeling. Pervasive
with gainful purity.
Taking a spouse brings fortune.
The Image of the first hexagram
The lake overwhelms
the trees: great excess.
The noble one stands alone
without fear,
and can withdraw
from the world
without sorrow.
The Image of the second hexagram
Lake on a mountain:
feeling.
The noble one
accepts people openly.
