The top line of the *Cui* (Gathering Together) hexagram states: "赍咨涕洟，无咎" (sighing and weeping, no blame) — tears and sighs bring no real misfortune. Gatherings always end eventually. It is normal to grieve when teams disband, friends drift apart, or bonds fade. Yet sorrow must not halt daily life: comings and goings are the natural order, and an ending is never a failure.
The top line of the *Gathering Together* hexagram (Cui) states: "赍咨涕洟，无咎" — sighing and shedding tears, yet no blame. Gatherings always end eventually. It is normal to grieve, feel reluctant, or cry when a team disbands, friends leave, or bonds fade. But sorrow aside, life goes on. Coming together and parting are constant; never mistake a farewell for failure.
The Nine in the Fifth Place of the *Cui (Gathering Together)* hexagram states: "萃有位，无咎。匪孚，元永贞，悔亡" — Gathering people while holding a high position brings no blame. But if followers are not sincerely convinced, one must uphold the correct path steadfastly to eliminate remorse. The hardest part of leadership is not securing the position, but winning genuine respect. Coercion only yields outward obedience, while heartfelt cohesion lasts long.
The Nine in the Fourth Place of the *Gathering Together* Hexagram (萃卦) states: "Supreme Good Fortune, No blame" (大吉，无咎) — meaning great auspiciousness with no fault. At this stage, you have gathered a team and secured certain resources. The biggest taboo is hoarding all control and benefits for yourself. Only by leaving room for others and sharing gains can you retain talent and achieve lasting good fortune.
The Nine in the Second Place of Gou (Coming to Meet) states: *"包有鱼，无咎。不利宾"* — "There is fish in the kitchen; no blame. It is not favorable to entertain guests." If you hold firm boundaries and inner resolve, you will stay unharmed interacting with anyone. But never let just anyone into your core circle: people around you shape you imperceptibly, and over time, you will grow to be just like them.
The Sixth Line (Six at the Beginning) of the Gou Hexagram (Coming to Meet) states: "Tied to a golden brake (系于金柅), perseverance brings good fortune (贞吉). If one sets out to act, misfortune follows (见凶)." It advises hitting the brakes and staying upright for auspicious results. When first meeting someone, don’t rush to conclusions, bare your heart, or dive into feelings. Pause, observe, and get to know the person first.
The Nine in the Second Place line of *Guai (Breakthrough)* states:「惕号，莫夜有戎，勿恤」— "Be vigilant and raise the call; if enemies attack at night, have no fear." For family conflicts and issues, as long as you stay alert and prepare in advance, sudden outbursts will not catch you off guard. The real trouble comes when you take things lightly on a daily basis and panic only when problems blow up.
The first line (Nine at the Beginning) of Hexagram Guai (Breakthrough) states: "壮于前趾，往不胜为咎" — meaning strength shows in the front toes; advancing without victory brings blame. It urges prompt action at the first sign of trouble before issues escalate. Yet sheer drive is not enough: one must assess their own capability. Charging ahead when unable to handle the situation is sheer recklessness.
The Six in the Third Place of the *Increase* Hexagram states: 「益之用凶事，无咎。有孚中行，告公用圭」 — meaning applying gains to urgent crises incurs No blame; acting with sincerity, holding to the middle path, and reporting to the lord with a jade scepter. In relationships, giving must fit timing and the recipient: timely support in a pinch is far more effective than constant, unthinking compliance.
The Six in the Third Place (六三) line text of the hexagram reads: "负且乘，致寇至" (Carrying burdens while riding a carriage draws robbers). For those with weak constitutions who stay up late, eat recklessly, and force themselves through constant stress, this is exactly "carrying burdens while riding" — that’s how subpar health creeps in. When conditioning your body, don’t rush to take tonics first; stop all those self-sabotaging habits first.
The Nine in the Second Place line of *Hexagram Reading* states: "田获三狐，得黄矢，贞吉" — hunting in the fields catches three foxes and yields yellow arrows; upholding correctness brings good fortune. To judge if a relationship is sincere, rely neither on gut feeling nor guesswork, but on careful observation and impartial judgment. Root out hidden risks mindfully and hold to a balanced, upright heart, and your bond will stay steady.
The *Six at the Beginning* line of the Deliverance Hexagram (雷水解) states "無咎" (No blame) — meaning no major flaws or serious troubles. When you’ve just pulled yourself out of a tough spot, don’t chase an overnight breakthrough; first steady your footing so you don’t slide back. "No blame" is not about lacking ambition, but about securing your position before pursuing goals. Having no setbacks right now is already a win.
