why should i stay away?
and received a response of:
40 Releasing
The Statement of the first hexagram
Gain in the west and south.
No cause to move forward-
then comes return, and fortune.
To have a place to go: dawn fortune.
The changing lines
The sixth line:
The duke uses this chance to shoot a hawk
from the top of the ramparts.
Nothing but gain in capturing.
64 Not Yet Across
The Statement of the second hexagram
Not yet across. Continue.
The young fox, nearly across,
soaks its tail.
No place is gainful.
The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder and rain act:
releasing.
The noble one
pardons errors
and forgives offenses.
The Image of the second hexagram
Fire on top of water:
not yet across. The wise
one distinguishes things
carefully, and puts them
in their places.
