Hexagram 14 大有 changing to hexagram 13 同人
Changing lines (counted from the bottom): 2, 5.
What to read
Two changing lines: read both line texts of the original hexagram; the upper one is the main one. (Rule set out by Zhu Xi in the Yixue qimeng.)
Hexagram 14 大有, line 5
厥孚交如，威如；吉。
The fifth line, divided, shows the sincerity of its subject reciprocated by that of all the others (represented in the hexagram). Let him display a proper majesty, and there will be good fortune.
Hexagram 14 大有, line 2
大轝以載，有攸往，无咎。
In the second line, undivided, we have a large waggon with its load. In whatever direction advance is made, there will be no error.
The two hexagrams
Hexagram 14 大有 — judgment
元亨。
Tâ Yû indicates that, (under the circumstances which it implies), there will be great progress and success.
Hexagram 13 同人 — judgment
同人于野，亨。 利涉大川，利君子貞。
Thung Zăn (or 'Union of men') appears here (as we find it) in the (remote districts of the) country, indicating progress and success. It will be advantageous to cross the great stream. It will be advantageous to maintain the firm correctness of the superior man.
