what does he want with me?
and received a response of:
27 Nourishing
The Statement of the first hexagram
Nourishing. Pure fortune.
Watch the jaws
and what one seeks to fill one's mouth.
The changing lines
The third line:
Jaws shake in opposition. Persistence
will bring misfortune. For ten years,
all will be useless and no place
will bring gain.
The sixth line:
Through nourishment
in severity comes fortune.
Advance across the great river.
36 Smothered Light
The Statement of the second hexagram
Smothered light.
Gain is difficult: persist.
The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder below the mountain: nourishing.
The noble one is
careful in speech
and temperate
while eating and drinking.
The Image of the second hexagram
Brilliance
in the earth's core:
smothered light.
The noble one
governs the multitude
by obscurity-
but with enlightenment.
