📜The Judgment

Shock brings success. Shock comes, then cautious movement and fearful words. Laughing words afterwards. The shock terrifies for a hundred miles. One does not let fall the sacrificial spoon and chalice.

🏔The Image

Thunder repeated. The superior person sets their life in order through examination and self-reflection.

⚊The Lines

Yang

First (Bottom)

Shock comes. Then cautious steps. Afterward laughing words. Good fortune.

Yin

Second

Shock comes bringing danger. Thoughts of loss. Climb to the nine hills. Do not go in pursuit. After seven days you will get it back.

Yin

Third

Shock comes and makes one distraught. If shock spurs to action, one remains free of misfortune.

Yang

Fourth

Shock is mired. Unable to act decisively.

Yin

Fifth

Shock goes hither and thither. Danger. However, nothing is lost. There are things to be done.

Yin

Sixth (Top)

Shock brings ruin. Terrified gazing. Going brings misfortune. If it has not yet reached one's body, only one's neighbor, there is no blame. One's comrades have something to talk about.
