The six lines
line 1 is at the bottom
- Line 1Yang
遇其配主，雖旬无咎，往有尚。
Partnering with someone who shares your goals will now provide you with clarity and motivation. It's wise to maintain this close relationship until your project is finished.
- Line 2Yin
豐其蔀，日中見斗，往得疑疾，有孚發若，吉。
You currently lack influence over what you desire. External obstacles hinder your progress. If you push forward aggressively, you may provoke jealousy and distrust. A positive outcome is possible if you remain sincere and honest, which might enhance your influence.
- Line 3Yang
豐其沛，日中見沫，折其右肱，无咎。
Ineptitude is at its peak. Exercise patience.
- Line 4Yang
豐其蔀，日中見斗，遇其夷主，吉。
Even though your situation hasn't been ideal, you will finally encounter the right circumstances to help you achieve your objectives. Enthusiasm combined with sound decisions leads to success.
- Line 5Yin
來章，有慶譽，吉。
Be open to the insights of others. Seek advice from the most capable individuals you know. This humility can lead to unexpected benefits and fruitful results for everyone involved.
- Line 6Yin
豐其屋，蔀其家，闚其戶，闃其无人，三歲不覿，凶。
Your pursuit of wealth has made you arrogant. Your desire to preserve it has caused you to become isolated. You're out of sync with the times and disconnected from those around you. As a result, you've already lost your most valuable possessions.
