Governing text · Sheng: Six at the beginning
In plain wordsGo along with those above you and rise together with them in all sincerity. Great good fortune.
- Now
- Like a tree growing up out of the ground: little by little, but always growing.
- The key
- Only one line is changing: Six at the beginning. The answer is in that line. This text describes a good outcome. Act the way it says and the matter can succeed. The promise has a condition: keep to the right course.
- Where it is heading
- Things are moving toward Tai (Peace): A good time when above and below are in touch and everything runs smoothly.
- What to do
- Do not worry; go and see the people who can help you. Follow the natural order and build up bit by bit, the small adding up to the large.

Verdict words in the text
Nuclear hexagram · Guimei (The Marrying Maiden)
The position is wrong and the standing is not proper; pushing forward on your own initiative will cost you.
The nuclear hexagram is formed from the four inner lines. It shows what is going on inside the situation.
