| In the first (or lowest) line, undivided, there is no approach to what is injurious, and there is no error. Let there be a realisation of the difficulty and danger of the position, and there will be no error. |

| The situation is shifting, but neither Yin (the passive feminine force) nor Yang (the active masculine force) is gaining ground. |

 | The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Li (Fire), which is transforming into Chi'en (Heaven). As part of this process, brightness and warmth are giving way to strength and creativity. |
 | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Chi'en (Heaven), which is transforming into Sun (Wind). As part of this process, strength and creativity are giving way to penetration and following. |
