Duration — success, no error; perseverance furthers; it furthers to have somewhere to go.
The Six Moving Lines
Six at the beginningSeeking duration too hastily brings misfortune persistently; nothing that would further.初六:浚恒,贞凶,无攸利。
Nine in the second placeRemorse disappears; one cannot remain forever in one's place; to make changes brings good fortune.九二:悔亡。
Nine in the third placeHe who does not give duration to his character meets with disgrace; persistent humiliation.九三:不恒其德,或承之羞,贞吝。
Nine in the fourth placeNo game in the field; it furthers one to hunt; if one is constantly on the move, nothing furthers.九四:田无禽。
Six in the fifth placeGiving duration to one's character through perseverance; this is good fortune for a wife, misfortune for a husband.六五:恒其德,贞,妇人吉,夫子凶。
Six at the topGiving duration to one's character through perseverance; this is good fortune for a wife, misfortune for a husband.上六:振恒,凶。
