What can I learn from this that I'm not seeing?"?
and received a response of:
9 Smallness Tames
The Statement of the first hexagram
Smallness tames. Persevere.
Dense clouds, no rain
at my western border.
The changing lines
The fifth line:
Have confidence. Entwine
with your neighbor for wealth.
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
Wind moving high
in heaven: smallness tames.
The noble one acts
with restraint, culture,
and morals.
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.
