Ancient Comments on the Image

— Duke of Zhou

Wind moves upon water, dispersal
the ancient kings accordingly offered sacrifices to the High God and established temples.

Judgment

— King Wen of Zhou

Dispersal: success. The king reaches the temple; favorable to cross great rivers, favorable steadfastness.

Moving Lines

— Duke of Zhou

1
employ strong horses for rescue, auspicious.
2
dispersing, rushing to its support; regret vanishes.
3
dispersing one's body, no regret.
4
dispersing its group, fundamentally auspicious. Dispersal has a hill; not what ordinary thinking considers.
5
dispersing sweat and the great cry; dispersing the king's dwelling, no blame.
6
dispersing its blood; go far and emerge, no blame.

Ancient Comments on the Moving Lines

— Confucius

1
The auspiciousness of the first six is following.
2
Rushing to its support, the wish is attained.
3
Dispersing one's body; the intention is outside.
4
Dispersing its group, fundamentally auspicious; radiance expanding.
5
The king's dwelling having no blame—this is the correct position.
6
Dispersing its blood is distancing the harm.

Ancient Comments on the Judgment

— Confucius

Dispersal, success. The firm comes and is not exhausted; the yielding obtains position on the outside and joins with what is above. The king reaches the temple; the king is then in the center. Favorable to cross great rivers; riding wood brings accomplishment.
