Ming I / Darkening of the Light
above: K'un The Receptive, Earth
below: Li The Clinging, Flame
The sixth [six], divided, shows the case where there is no light, but (only) obscurity. (Its subject) had at first ascended to (the top of) the sky; his future shall be to go into the earth.
Line 6 sets forth the fate of the ruler, who opposes himself to the officer who would do him good and intelligent service. Instead of becoming as the sun, enlightening all from the height of the sky, he is as a sun hidden below the earth. I can well believe that the writer had the last king of Shang in his mind.
