CHANGING LINE:
Nine at the beginning [yang at bottom] means:
Landscape with the Fall of Icarus, 1555 - Bruegel the Elder In times of resolute advance, the beginning is especially difficult. We feel inspired to press forward but resistance is still strong; therefore we ought to gauge our own strength and venture only so far as we can go with certainty of success. To plunge blindly ahead is wrong, because it is precisely at the beginning that an unexpected setback can have the most disastrous results. |
