DIANJI · 典籍
睽·乖异·求同存异
小事吉。
睽象征乖异、疏离、意见不合。火往上、泽往下,志向相背。此状态下处理小事尚可获吉,不宜开展宏大合作。
初九 悔亡。丧马勿逐,自复。见恶人,无咎。
九二 遇主于巷,无咎。
六三 见舆曳,其牛掣,其人天且劓,无初有终。
九四 睽孤,遇元夫,交孚,厉无咎。
六五 悔亡,厥宗噬肤,往何咎。
上九 睽孤,见豕负涂,载鬼一车,先张之弧,后说之弧,匪寇婚媾,往遇雨则吉。
小事吉。
Under this estrangement, only modest undertakings turn out well.
Initial Nine: Regret fades. If a horse strays, don't chase it down — it will find its own way back. And when you cross paths with someone of bad character, simply stay alert enough not to be drawn into their trouble.
Nine in the second: Running into the right person by chance, in an unlikely alleyway — nothing wrong with that.
Six in the third: It looks grim at first — a cart hauled backward, the oxen balking, someone bearing a harsh punishment — but what starts badly here still resolves well.
Nine in the fourth: Cut off and alone in this rift, one finds a kindred spirit worth trusting fully — the situation stays risky, but nothing here is truly at fault.
Six in the fifth: Regret dissolves as a close ally pushes decisively through the obstacles between you — reaching out to meet them can hardly go wrong.
Nine at the top: At the furthest extreme of this rift, suspicion runs wild — a companion is mistaken for a filthy animal, or imagined as a cartload of ghosts. A weapon is raised in alarm, then lowered again once the truth is clear: this is no enemy, only someone seeking genuine connection. As the tension finally breaks, like rain arriving, good fortune follows.
