The Situation

48. Ching - The Well
Above (in front): K'an - The Abysmal (Water)
Below (behind): Sun - The Gentle (Wind)




The Judgement for the Current Situation

The Well. The town may be changed,
But the well cannot be changed.
It neither decreases nor increases.
They come and go and draw from the well.
If one gets down almost to the water
And the rope does not go all the way,
Or the jug breaks, it brings misfortune.


The Image for the Current Situation

Water over wood: the image of The Well.
Thus the superior man encourages the people at their work,
And exhorts them to help one another.


Interpretation of the Changing Line(s)

Line 6: One draws from the well
Without hindrance.
It is dependable.
Supreme good fortune.


The Future

57. Sun - The Gentle (The Penetrating, Wind)
Above (in front): Sun - The Gentle (Wind)
Below (behind): Sun - The Gentle (Wind)


The Judgement for the Future

The Gentle. Success through what is small.
It furthers one to have somewhere to go.
It furthers one to see the great man.


The Image for the Future

Winds following one upon the other:
The image of the Gently Penetrating.
Thus the superior man
Spreads his commands abroad
And carries out his undertakings.
