卦辞

<p>The tiny sprout emerges, heralding a time of sublime prosperity and smoothness. Yet, heed this: steadfastness and uprightness are your allies. Tread carefully, for hasty steps may falter. A path unfolds before you, ripe with possibility. As in days of old when lords were appointed to secure new lands, so too should you establish strong foundations. The beginning brims with potential, but demands reverence and careful tending. Your actions now, however small, echo into the future. Be wise in your choices, firm in your resolve, and mindful of the delicate balance between action and patience. The time is favorable, but success hinges on your ability to nurture this nascent potential with unwavering dedication and foresight.</p>

象辞

<p>Clouds and thunder fill up. The superior person plans and sets things in order.</p>
