This does not seem useful?
and received a response of:
23 Splitting
The Statement of the first hexagram
Splitting; no gain
in having a place to go.
The changing lines
The first line:
The bed's feet split:
If you disregard the signs: misfortune.
The fifth line:
The court ladies and concubines
are like fish tethered to a line:
nothing but gain.
42 Increase
The Statement of the second hexagram
Increase. Gain by having a place to go.
Advance across the great river.
The Image of the first hexagram
The mountain resting on
the earth: splitting.
When the high
are generous
to those below,
all dwell in peace.
The Image of the second hexagram
Wind and thunder:
increase. The noble one
sees perfection
and shifts to fit its pattern,
and corrects his own faults.
