The Judgement

Obstruction. The southwest furthers.
The northeast does not further.
It furthers one to see the great man.
Perseverance brings good fortune.

The Image

Water on the mountain:
The image of Obstruction.
Thus the superior man turns his attention to himself
And molds his character.

Changing Lines

Changing yin at the bottom means:
Going leads to obstructions,
Coming meets with praise.

Changing yin in the second place means:
The king's servant is beset by obstruction upon obstruction,
But it is not his own fault.

Changing yang in the third place means:
Going leads to obstructions;
Hence he comes back.

Changing yin in the fourth place means:
Going leads to obstructions,
Coming leads to union.

Changing yang in the fifth place means:
In the midst of the greatest obstructions,
Friends come.

Changing yin at the top means:
Going leads to obstructions,
Coming leads to great good fortune.
It furthers one to see the great man.
