Power in the toes. Continuing brings misfortune. This is certainly true.

2

Posição 2: Perseverance yin

Perseverance brings good fortune.

3

Posição 3: Power Misused yang

The inferior man works through power. The superior man does not act thus. To continue is dangerous. A goat butts against a hedge and gets its horns entangled.

4

Posição 4: Perseverance Rewarded yang

Perseverance brings good fortune. Remorse disappears. The hedge opens; there is no entanglement. Power depends upon the axle of a big cart.

Loses the goat with ease. No remorse.

6

Posição 6: Entangled Strength yang

A goat butts against a hedge. It cannot go backward, it cannot go forward. Nothing serves to further. If one notes the difficulty, this brings good fortune.
