and received a response of:
19 Arrival
The Statement of the first hexagram
The arrival of the maker: everywhere,
giving and pure.
When the eighth moon comes,
there will be misfortune.
The changing lines
The second line:
All arrival: fortune.
Nothing but gain.
The third line:
Luscious arrival,
but no place brings gain.
Once grieving passes, there is no fault.
36 Smothered Light
The Statement of the second hexagram
Smothered light.
Gain is difficult: persist.
The Image of the first hexagram
Earth by the lake: arrival.
The noble one
is inexhaustible
in teaching,
and boundlessly protects
the people.
The Image of the second hexagram
Brilliance
in the earth's core:
smothered light.
The noble one
governs the multitude
by obscurity-
but with enlightenment.
