and received a response of:
58 Exchange
The Statement of the first hexagram
Exchange: progress and steadfast gain.
The changing lines
The first line:
Harmonious exchange.
Fortune.
The second line:
Sincere exchange.
Fortune. Regrets vanish.
The sixth line:
Guided to exchange.
12 Clogging
The Statement of the second hexagram
Clogging by wicked people.
Nothing to be gained,
even from a steadfast prince.
The great goes, the vile comes.
The Image of the first hexagram
Joined lakes in exchange.
The noble one
investigates and explains
knowledge to friends.
The Image of the second hexagram
Heaven and earth
separate: clogging.
The noble one acts
with self-restraint
in the face
of punishing hardship,
and avoids glory or riches.
