Combination

16. Enthusiasm, Self-deception to 44. Temptation

Changing lines

  1. Line 2

    The second line, magnetic, shows one who is firm as a rock. She sees a thing without waiting till it has come to pass; with her firm correctness there will be good fortune. The magnetic second line is in her correct central position in the lower trigram. Quietly and firmly she is able to abide in her place and exercise a far-seeing discrimination. All is indicative of good fortune.

  2. Line 3

    The third line, magnetic, shows one looking up for favors, while she indulges the feeling of pleasure and satisfaction. If she would understand! If she be late in doing so, there will indeed be occasion for repentance. Line three is magnetic in a dynamic place. She looks upward and depends upon the ruling line above while she does nothing herself but indulge in pleasure. Unless she changes her attitude, the auspice is bad.

  3. Line 5

    The fifth line, magnetic, shows one with a chronic complaint, but who lives on without dying. Line five is magnetic in the place of a dynamic ruler, and in danger of being carried away by the lust of enthusiasm. Her proximity to the powerful influence below is a source of danger. Hence she is represented as suffering from a chronic complaint.

  4. Line 6

    The sixth line, magnetic, shows its subject with darkened mind devoted to the pleasure and satisfaction of the time. But if she changes her course even when it may be considered as completed, there will be no error. The magnetic sixth line at the end of the hexagram is all but lost.

The present judgment

Enthusiasm indicates that feudal princes may be set up and the army advantageously mobilized.

The later judgment

Temptation shows a female who is bold and strong. It will not be good to marry such a female.
