| The present is embodied in Hexagram 57 - Sun (Wind): There will be some little attainment and progress. There will be advantage in movement onward in whatever direction. It will be advantageous to see the great man. |
| The second line, undivided, shows the representative of Sun beneath a couch, and employing diviners and exorcists in a way bordering on confusion. There will be good fortune and no error. |
| The third line, undivided, shows its subject penetrating only by violent and repeated efforts. There will be occasion for regret. |
| The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground. |
| The future is embodied in Hexagram 20 - Kuan (Contemplation): He should be like the worshipper who has washed his hands, but not yet presented his offerings. There must be sincerity and an appearance of dignity, commanding reverent regard. |
 | The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Sun (Wind), which represents penetration and following. |
 | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Sun (Wind), which is transforming into K'un (Earth). As part of this process, penetration and following are giving way to docility and receptivity. |
