Mirror group 15.5-39.5-16.2-40.2

About how convinced to be without losing flexibility

15.5 yin: Not rich through one's neighbor. Fruitful to benefit from invading and attacking. Nothing that does not bear fruit.

Don't starve by politeness, go after what you need.

39.5 yang: Big limping: partners come.

Show what you need (dare not to know-all) and others may come to help.

Lines 15.5 and 39.5 are each others zhi-yao (fanyao), like views on the same landscape but from a different side, Earth-Water and vv. Asking for different (complementary) actions.

16.2 yin: Confined by rocks. Not to the end of the day. Determination auspicious.

Don't petrify, live with an open heart.

40.2 yang: At the hunt catching three foxes. Acquiring a gold arrow. Determination auspicious.

Do what you need to improve yourself and your world.
