Hexagram 11 泰, Line 4
泰
Hexagram 11 · fourth line, divided (six)
翩翩，不富以其鄰；不戒以孚。
The fourth line, divided, shows its subject fluttering (down);—not relying on his own rich resources, but calling in his neighbours. (They all come) not as having received warning, but in the sincerity (of their hearts).
James Legge (1882), public domain.
Small image (小象)
翩翩不富，皆失實也。不戒以孚，中心願也。
If only this line changes, hexagram 11 becomes hexagram 34.
← Hexagram 11 泰: judgment and all lines
