Read a record of the questions asked of I Ching, read the response, and read the comments of others

why has this sorrow come over me?
and received a response of:
31 Feeling
The Statement of the first hexagram
Feeling. Pervasive
with gainful purity.
Taking a spouse brings fortune.
The changing lines
The fifth line:
Feeling in the spine.
No fault.
62 Small Crossing
The Statement of the second hexagram
Small crossing. Continue for gainful purity.
Small matters can be done,
but not large matters.
Flying birds leave their sound:
it is unsuitable to go high-
the suitable is below.
Great fortune.
The Image of the first hexagram
Lake on a mountain:
feeling.
The noble one
accepts people openly.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder above the
mountain: small crossing.
The noble one acts with
more than enough
reverence, destroys
excessive grief, and uses
more than enough
economy.
