HEX 20 : KUAN / CONTEMPLATION
(SUN: Wind, gentle | K'UN: Earth, receptive)
Washed but offering not yet made.
Sincerity brings sincerity. Wind across the earth. Rulers of old visited the
regions, observing the people, to plan their instruction. [2nd=6] Peeping from
behind a door. Advantageous in a woman. [4th=6] Contemplating the country's glory. Advantage as the
ruler's guest.
HEX 6 : SUNG / CONFLICT
(CH'IEN: Heaven, active | K'AN: Water, dangerous)
Though sincere, you are obstructed. Acting
cautiously brings good fortune. Persistence brings misfortune. Advantage to see
the great one, but not to cross the great water. Heaven and water go their
opposite ways. The superior one carefully considers the first move before
commencing any venture.
