"Ting gives the intimation of great progress and success. "
" "
"1. The first line, divided, shows the caldron overthrown and its feet "
"turned up. (But) there will be advantage in its getting rid of what "
"was bad in it. (Or it shows us) the concubine (whose position is im- "
"proved) by means of her son. There will be no error. "
" "
"2. The second line, undivided, shows the caldron with the things (to "
"be cooked) in it. (If its subject can say), My enemies dislikes me, "
"but he cannot approach me, there will be good fortune. "
" "
"3. The third line, undivided, shows the caldron with (the places of) "
"its ears changed. The progress (of its subject) is (thus) stopped. "
"The fat flesh of the pheasant (which is in the caldron) will not be "
"eaten. But the (genial) rain will come, and the grounds for "
"repentance will disappear. There will be good fortune in the end. "
" "
"4. The fourth line, undivided, shows the caldron with its feet "
"broken; and its contents, designed for the ruler's use, overturned "
"and spilt. Its subject will be made to blush for shame. There will "
"be evil. "
" "
"5. The fifth line, divided, shows the caldron with yellow ears and "
"rings of metal in them. There will be advantage through being firm "
"and correct. "
" "
"6. The sixth line, undivided, shows the caldron with rings of jade. "
"There will be great good fortune, and all action taken will be in "
"every way advantageous. "

" Fire continues to burn when it is supplied with fresh wood and stirred"
" by the wind. A wise person finds his true place in life and lives in"
" accord with what fate decrees. His inner strength nourishes his actions"
" and all people benefit from this harmony, just as food nourishes the"
" body."
