Personal tasks left for the last third?
and received a response of:
6 Dispute
The Statement of the first hexagram
Dispute: keep confident
even if blocked and alarmed.
In the middle, good fortune,
but in the end, misfortune.
Gain by seeing a great person.
Do not advance across the great river.
The changing lines
The first line:
Do not prolong this case.
The petty control all the talk.
In the end: fortune.
The third line:
Surviving on old favors: a perilous sign.
In the end: fortune.
One may undertake royal service,
but without personal success.
The fifth line:
Dispute. Supreme fortune.
14 Great Holdings
The Statement of the second hexagram
Great hold_ings:
supreme
every_where.
The Image of the first hexagram
Heaven and water clash:
dispute. The noble one
devises the right beginning
in all matters.
The Image of the second hexagram
Fire in heaven:
great holdings.
The noble one
curbs evil and fosters good,
and is favored
with heaven's blessings
and commands.
