44 Copulating

The Statement of the first hexagram

Copulating: the woman is powerful.
Do not marry such a woman.

The changing lines

The first line:
Checked by a metal brake: pure fortune.
There's a place to go, but misfortune
will be seen. A weak pig will surely falter.
The fourth line:
The wrapping has no fish:
the start of misfortune.
The sixth line:
Copulating with a horn. Remorse.
No fault.

5 Waiting

The Statement of the second hexagram

Waiting. Stay confident:

there is light everywhere.

Pure fortune.

Advance across the great river.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Wind under heaven:
copulating.
The sovereign
issues commands
to the four quarters.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Clouds rising to heaven:
waiting. The noble one
drinks, eats,
and feasts with joy.
