Opposition. In small matters, good fortune.

Above, fire; below, the lake:
The image of Opposition.
Thus amid all fellowship
The superior one retains one's individuality.

Changing Lines

Line 1: Yang Opening

Remorse disappears.
If you lose your horse, do not run after it;
It will come back of its own accord.
When you see evil people,
Guard yourself against mistakes.

Line 2: Yang Opening

One meets one's lord in a narrow street.
No blame.

Line 3: Yin Firming

One sees the wagon dragged back,
The oxen halted,
A one's hair and nose cut off.
Not a good beginning, but a good end.

Line 4: Yang Opening

Isolated through opposition,
One meets a like-minded one
With whom one can associate in good faith.
Despite the danger, no blame.

Line 5: Yin Firming

Remorse disappears.
The companion bites one's way through the wrappings.
If one goes to one,
How could it be a mistake?

Line 6: Yang Opening

Isolated through opposition,
One sees one's companion as a pig covered with dirt,
As a wagon full of devils.
First one draws a bow against one,
Then one lays the bow aside.
One is not a robber; one will woo at the right time.
As one goes, rain falls; then good fortune comes.
