止Hold back
Reading
Not now.There is something that should be cleared away, and the time has come to decide.
Governing text · Guai: Six at the top
In plain wordsThere is no one left even to cry out to for help; in the end, misfortune. The faction has scattered, and the road has run out.
- Now
- Five parts good against one part bad; only the final decisive step remains. But that last step is still dangerous.
- The key
- Only one line is changing: Six at the top. The answer is in that line. This text describes a bad outcome. Carry on as you are and you will lose by it. Stop, step aside or change your approach. Do not force it.
- Where it is heading
- Things are moving toward Qian (Heaven): The momentum is just right. It is a good time to go all in, but don't overshoot.
- What to do
- Bring the matter into the open and state it clearly; win everyone's support. Put your own side in order first. Do not open with a head-on clash. Be decisive, but not impulsive.
