Hexagram #38
睽 kuí
Opposition
离 Li (Fire)
fire · Clinging
兑 Dui (Lake)
metal · Joyous
Opposition. In small matters, good fortune.
Above, fire; below, the lake. The superior person retains their individuality.
First (Bottom)
Remorse disappears. If you lose your horse, do not run after it; it will come back on its own. When you see evil people, guard yourself against mistakes.
Second
One meets the lord in a narrow street. No blame.
Third
One sees the wagon dragged back, the oxen halted. The person's hair and nose cut off. Not a good beginning, but a good end.
Fourth
Isolated through opposition. One meets a like-minded person. Despite danger, no blame.
Fifth
Remorse disappears. The companion bites through the wrappings. If one goes to them, how could it be a mistake?
Sixth (Top)
Isolated through opposition. One sees a pig covered with dirt, a wagon full of devils. First drawing a bow, then laying it aside. Not a robber but a suitor.
