兌
Hexagram 58 · fourth line, undivided (nine)
商兌,未寧,介疾有喜。
The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject deliberating about what to seek his pleasure in, and not at rest. He borders on what would be injurious, but there will be cause for joy.
James Legge (1882), public domain.
Small image (小象)
九四之喜,有慶也。
If only this line changes, hexagram 58 becomes hexagram 60.
