19 Arrival

The Statement of the first hexagram

The arrival of the maker: everywhere,
giving and pure.
When the eighth moon comes,
there will be misfortune.

The changing lines

The second line:
All arrival: fortune.
Nothing but gain.
The third line:
Luscious arrival,
but no place brings gain.
Once grieving passes, there is no fault.
The fifth line:
Knowledge arrives.
The noble one is proper.
Fortune.

The Statement of the second hexagram

Already across. Continue.

Small gain: be steadfast.

In the beginning, fortune.

At the end, disorder.

Earth by the lake: arrival.
The noble one

in teaching,
and boundlessly protects
the people.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Water on top of fire:
already across. The wise
one prepares for calamity
by forethought.
