63 Already Across

The Statement of the first hexagram

Already across. Continue.

Small gain: be steadfast.

In the beginning, fortune.

At the end, disorder.

The changing lines

The second line:
A wife loses her ornaments. Do not chase:

get them back in seven days.
The fifth line:
The eastern neighbor slaughters an ox,

not like the western neighbor's sacrifice

and worship: faithfully receives his happiness.
The sixth line:
Dunking his head.

Severe.

26 Great Restraint

The Statement of the second hexagram

Gain by being upright.
Not eating at home brings fortune.
Advance across the great river.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

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

The Image of the second hexagram

Heaven in the center of a
mountain: great restraint.
The noble one
frequently studies
the words and prophesies
of the past, and thereby
nourishes virtue.
