Hexagram 45 萃 changing to hexagram 8 比
Changing line (counted from the bottom): 4.
What to read
One changing line: read the text of that line in the original hexagram. (Rule set out by Zhu Xi in the Yixue qimeng.)
Hexagram 45 萃, line 4
大吉，无咎。
The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject in such a state that, if he be greatly fortunate, he will receive no blame.
The two hexagrams
Hexagram 45 萃 — judgment
王假有廟，利見大人，亨。利貞。用大牲吉，利有攸往。
In (the state denoted by) Zhui, the king will repair to his ancestral temple. It will be advantageous (also) to meet with the great man; and then there will be progress and success, though the advantage must come through firm correctness. The use of great victims will conduce to good fortune; and in whatever direction movement is made, it will be advantageous.
Hexagram 8 比 — judgment
吉。原筮元永貞，无咎。不寧方來，後夫凶。
Pî indicates that (under the conditions which it supposes) there is good fortune. But let (the principal party intended in it) re-examine himself, (as if) by divination, whether his virtue be great, unintermitting, and firm. If it be so, there will be no error. Those who have not rest will then come to him; and with those who are (too) late in coming it will be ill.
