The Situation

54. Kuei Mei - The Marrying Maiden
Above (in front): Chên - The Arousing (Thunder)
Below (behind): Tui - The Joyous (Lake)




The Judgement for the Current Situation

The Marrying Maiden.
Undertakings bring misfortune.
Nothing that would further.


The Image for the Current Situation

Thunder over the lake:
The image of The Marrying Maiden.
Thus the superior man
Understands the transitory
In the light of the eternity of the end.


Interpretation of the Changing Line(s)

Line 2: A one-eyed man who is able to see.
The perseverance of a solitary man furthers.


The Future

51. Chên - The Arousing (Shock, Thunder)
Above (in front): Chên - The Arousing (Thunder)
Below (behind): Chên - The Arousing (Thunder)


The Judgement for the Future

Shock brings success.
Shock comes--oh, oh!
Laughing words--ha, ha!
The shock terrifies for a hundred miles,
And he does not let fall the sacrificial spoon and chalice.


The Image for the Future

Thunder repeated: the image of Shock.
Thus in fear and trembling
The superior man sets his life in order
And examines himself.
