what is it about him that i don't like?

and received a response of:

6 Dispute

The Statement of the first hexagram

Dispute: keep confident

even if blocked and alarmed.

In the middle, good fortune,

but in the end, misfortune.

Gain by seeing a great person.

Do not advance across the great river.

The changing lines

The third line:
Surviving on old favors: a perilous sign.

In the end: fortune.

One may undertake royal service,

but without personal success.

The fourth line:
Unable to win the dispute. Go back now,

make your decisions.

Change your mind

and there will be peace.

The fifth line:
Dispute. Supreme fortune.

The sixth line:
One may be awarded a belt of high rank,

but by morning's end,

it will have been stripped away three times.

46 Rising

The Statement of the second hexagram

Rising. Great continuing.

Act now to see the great person.

Do not be distressed. Advance southward:

fortune.

The Image of the first hexagram

Heaven and water clash:
dispute. The noble one
devises the right beginning
in all matters.

The Image of the second hexagram

Wood growing in the
center of the land: rising.
The noble one is mild,
gradually raising what is
tiny into the tall and great.
