Hexagram 55 豐, Line 4
豐
Hexagram 55 · fourth line, undivided (nine)
豐其蔀，日中見斗，遇其夷主，吉。
The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject in a tent so large and thick that at midday he can see from it the constellation of the Bushel. But he meets with the subject of the (first) line, undivided like himself. There will be good fortune.

豐其蔀，位不當也。日中見斗，幽不明也。遇其夷主，吉；行也。
If only this line changes, hexagram 55 becomes hexagram 36.
