Increase — it furthers to undertake something; the great crossing of the water.
The Six Moving Lines
Nine at the beginningIt furthers one to undertake great things; supreme good fortune, no blame.初九:利用为大作,元吉,无咎。
Six in the second placeSomeone indeed increases him; ten pairs of tortoises cannot oppose it; supreme good fortune; the king presents him before God; good fortune.六二:或益之十朋之龟,弗克违,永贞吉。王用享于帝,吉。
Six in the third placeOne is enriched through unfortunate events; no blame; be sincere, and walk in the middle way; report to the prince with a seal.六三:益之用凶事,无咎。有孚中行,告公用圭。
Six in the fourth placeIf you walk in the middle and report to the prince, he will follow; it furthers one to be used in the removal of the capital.六四:中行,告公从,利用为依迁国。
Nine in the fifth placeIf you have a sincere heart, do not ask again; supreme good fortune; the sincere heart is recognized as having virtue.九五:有孚惠心,勿问元吉。有孚惠我德。
Nine at the topNo one tries to increase him; someone strikes him; he does not keep his heart constant; misfortune.上九:莫益之,或击之,立心勿恒,凶。
