Hexagram 09
Xio Ch, tending small livestock
Gua Poem:
Small accumulation, expansion. Shrouding clouds, no rain
from our Western fields.
The great image says: Wind moves high in heaven, small
accumulation. The noble one cultivates the pattern of virtue.

Xio Ch: the ideogram and the story. (../hexstories/09.html) What does it mean for
your question?

Top 9: Already rain, already dealing with it. Thanks to the virtue it carries.
Housewife determination: danger. The moon is almost full. The noble one
rectifying: pitfall (../origins/goodbad.htm#Xiongpitfall).
Every change always contains unexpected possibilities, but you find them only if
youre open to it. Stay versatile, things always change in an unexpected way. Be
creative, dont stick only to your own job. Never be too sure of anything. And even if
you are the one who knows everything, even then dont force anyone.
(Changes to hex.5) (hex_05.html)
9 at 5: Inspiring confidence, making order (out of chaos) thus. Rich through
ones neighbor.
Make friends with people when things go well, then they will be your friends when
times are tough. Sincerity and trustworthiness, compassion and generosity are your
tools to give structure to your life and its surroundings.
(Changes to hex.26) (hex_26.html)
6 at 4: Inspiring confidence. Blood goes away, fear goes out. Without fault.
(../origins/goodbad.htm#JIUfault)
Small human matters, fears, ties, frustrations, they are forgotten when inspiration
brings big images, ideals. Now one is no longer following human patterns, but
dedicating oneself to higher aims. When the soul 'knows', there is no fear. He will
follow his knowing.
(Changes to hex.1) (hex_01.html)
9 at 3: The cart loses spokes. Husband and wife turn away their eyes.
Reactions are telltale of the spirit in the house. If they are a bit wrong in small
mishaps, they will be disastrous in big ones. So pay attention to all the small and big
events, and especially to reactions.
(Changes to hex.61) (hex_61.html)
9 at 2: Led by a cord to return, auspicious. (../origins/goodbad.htm#Ji:
auspicious)
When running a small farm (or anything that can be symbolized by that image) it is
good to be reminded convincingly of the things one should do.
Dont let contacts distract you from your own road, but do use their reactions as
tokens of your own influences. Reactions of others can tell you a lot about yourself and
your actions
(Changes to hex.37) (hex_37.html)
Initial 9: Return to ones way. How could that be faulty
(../origins/goodbad.htm#JIUfault). Auspicious (../origins/goodbad.htm#Ji:
auspicious).
Go your own road. When you stray off, then go back again. Sometimes it will be
difficult, people expecting you to act in a certain way, you yourself insecure or
convinced another way is better. Being and doing what you essentially are, can never
be wrong.
