What is money?
and received a response of:
56 Traveler
The Statement of the first hexagram
Traveler. Slight progress.
Be steadfast in travel: fortune.
The changing lines
The third line:
A traveler sets fire to his lodging,
loses his servants. Firm harshness.
The sixth line:
A bird sets fire to its nest. A traveler
first laughs, afterward howls and weeps.
Loses an ox in barter. Misfortune.
16 Delight
The Statement of the second hexagram
What delight!
Gain by naming allies.
Move armies.
The Image of the first hexagram
Fire on the mountain:
traveler. The noble one is
clear-minded and cautious
in meting out punishment
and yet does not delay trial.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder explodes,
shaking the earth: delight.
The early kings made music,
glorifying virtue as the
highest offering to God,
and so they were worthy
of their ancestors.
