Hexagram 62 Xiăo Guò, the Small Pass Gua Poem: Small trespass, expansion, harvest - determination. Permitting Small Affairs. Not permitting Great Affairs. The flying bird leaves behind its sound: it is not fit above, it is fit below. Greatly auspicious. The great image says: Above mountain is thunder, small exceeding. The noble one exceeds in respect in actions, exceeds in sorrow at funerals, exceeds in thrift at spending.

Top 6: Not meeting him/it. Passing him/it. The flying bird is caught in a net. Pitfall. This is rightly called a calamity and a disaster.
One cannot do everything one wants to do, not even if one has the right to. It has to fit in reality, in circumstances. Stay within the borders of safety, of common sense, of experience - or you will be struck by disaster.

6 at 5: Shrouding clouds, no rain from our Western fields. The duke hits with a string-arrow over there in a cave.
When nothing seems to work and no ideas will come, then try something, make a guess, everything is better than freezing. Risk a shot, you might hit something, but if you get paralyzed, you will stay stuck. Also open your mind, there is more between heaven and earth than your eyes can see.
