8 Joining
The Statement of the first hexagram
Joining brings fortune.
Repeating the divination by yarrow stalks
brings a supreme and lasting omen
without fault.
Those who are not sure
will join the plan.
Those who are late
will meet misfortune.
The changing lines
The third line:
Joining with robbers.
39 Hindered
The Statement of the second hexagram
Gain in the west and south.
No gain in the east and north.
Gain by seeing the great person.
Pure fortune.
The Image of the first hexagram
Water pooled
on the earth: joining.
The early kings founded
the myriad nations,
and kept close ties
with all the leaders.
The Image of the second hexagram
Water on top of the
mountain: hindered.
The noble one
turns inward
to cultivate virtue.
