Decrease one's ailment, and quickly, so that there is joy. No blame.
損其疾，使遄有喜，无咎。
平Neutral
Reading
Neither good nor bad. It depends on how you act.Giving something up, cutting back a little, is worth it now.
Governing text · Sun: Six in the fourth place
In plain wordsCut away your own faults, and do it fast; if you are quick there will be joy. No blame.
- Now
- A hexagram of decrease: taking from what is yours to benefit others, or a larger cause. As long as it comes from the heart, it is great good fortune.
- The key
- Only one line is changing: Six in the fourth place. The answer is in that line. Neither good nor bad. Do your part, correct mistakes, and nothing will go wrong.
- Where it is heading
- Things are moving toward Kui (Opposition): You are out of step with each other. Big things will not work; small ones still can.
- What to do
- Give what ought to be given; no need for display, it is enough that your heart is in it. For yourself, it means less anger and less greed.
