indicates that (under the conditions which it denotes) action will be
evil, and in no wise advantageous.
1. The
first NINE, undivided, shows the younger sister married off in a position
ancillary to the real wife. (It suggests the idea of) a person lame
on one leg who yet manages to tramp along. Going forward will be fortunate.
2. The
second NINE, undivided, shows her blind of one eye, and yet able to
see. There will be advantage in her maintaining the firm correctness
of a solitary widow.
3. The
third six, divided, shows the younger sister who was to be married off
in a mean position. She returns and accepts an ancillary position.
4. The
fourth NINE, undivided, shows the younger sister who is to be married
off protracting the time. She may be late in being married, but the
time will come.
5. The
fifth six, divided, reminds us of the marrying of the younger sister
of (king) Ti-yi, when the sleeves of her the princess were not equal
to those of the (still) younger sister who accompanied her in an inferior
capacity. (The case suggests the thought oo the moon almost full. There
will be good fortune.
6. The
sixth six, divided, shows the young lady bearing the basket, but without
anything in it, and the gentleman slaughtering the sheep, but without
blood flowing from it. There will be no advantage in any way. |
