24 Fu
Fu indicates
that there will be free course and progress (in what it denotes). (The
subject of it) finds no one to distress him in his exits and entrances;
friends come to him, and no error is committed. He will return and repeat
his (proper) course. In seven days comes his return. There will be advantage
in whatever direction movement is made.
1. The first
NINE, undivided, shows its subject returning (from an error) of no great
extent, which would not proceed to anything requiring repentance. There
will be great good fortune.
2. The second
six, divided, shows the admirable return (of its subject). There will
be good fortune.
3. The third
six, divided, shows one who has made repeated returns. The position is
perilous, but there will be no error.
4. The fourth
six, divided, shows its subject moving right in the center (among those
represented by the other divided lines), and yet returning alone (to his
proper path).
5. The fifth
six, divided, shows the noble return of its subject. There will be no
ground for repentance.
6. The topmost
six, divided, shows its subject all astray on the subject of returning.
There will be evil. There will be calamities and errors. If with his views
he put the hosts in motion, the end will be a great defeat, whose issues
will extend to the ruler of the state. Even in ten years he will not be
able to repair the disaster.
