Read a record of the questions asked of I Ching, read the response, and read the comments of others

there has to be a reason for all this shit, right?
and received a response of:
46 Rising
The Statement of the first hexagram
Rising. Great continuing.
Act now to see the great person.
Do not be distressed. Advance southward:
fortune.
The changing lines
The second line:
Trust the gain in the summer sacrifice.
No fault.
The fourth line:
The king makes offerings on Mount Qi.
Fortune. No fault.
62 Small Crossing
The Statement of the second 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 Image of the first hexagram
Wood growing in the
center of the land: rising.
The noble one is mild,
gradually raising what is
tiny into the tall and great.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder above the
mountain: small crossing.
The noble one acts with
more than enough
reverence, destroys
excessive grief, and uses
more than enough
economy.
