Have I done the right thing writing to R?
and received a response of:
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 sixth line:
Sincere arrival.
Gain without fault.
22 Adornment
The Statement of the second hexagram
Adornment. Continue.
Slight gain in having a place to go.
The Image of the first hexagram
Earth by the lake: arrival.
The noble one
is inexhaustible
in teaching,
and boundlessly protects
the people.
The Image of the second hexagram
Fire at the foot
of a mountain: adornment.
The noble one thereby
governs with clarity, and
does not dare
to decide lawsuits lightly.
