why all these changes?
and received a response of:
28 Great Excess
The Statement of the first hexagram
The ridgepole sags.
Gain by having a place to go.
Continue.
The changing lines
The fifth line:
Withered wood blooms with flowers.
An old woman takes a husband.
Neither fault nor praise.
32 Constancy
The Statement of the second hexagram
Constancy is to continue
without fault.
Gain through purity.
Gain by having a place to go.
The Image of the first hexagram
The lake overwhelms
the trees: great excess.
The noble one stands alone
without fear,
and can withdraw
from the world
without sorrow.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder and wind:
constancy.
The noble one stands
without changing direction.
