Hexagram 22 賁 changing to hexagram 13 同人
Changing lines (counted from the bottom): 4, 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 22 賁, line 5
賁於丘園，束帛戔戔，吝，終吉。
The fifth line, divided, shows its subject adorned by (the occupants of) the heights and gardens. He bears his roll of silk, small and slight. He may appear stingy; but there will be good fortune in the end.
Hexagram 22 賁, line 4
賁如皤如，白馬翰如，匪寇婚媾。
The fourth line, divided, shows one looking as if adorned, but only in white. As if (mounted on) a white horse, and furnished with wings, (he seeks union with the subject of the first line), while (the intervening third pursues), not as a robber, but intent on a matrimonial alliance.
The two hexagrams
Hexagram 22 賁 — judgment
亨。小利有攸往。
Pî indicates that there should be free course (in what it denotes). There will be little advantage (however) if it be allowed to advance (and take the lead).
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.
