P'i / Standstill [Stagnation]

above: Ch'ien The Creative, Heaven
below: K'un The Receptive, Earth

The third [six], divided, shows its subject ashamed of the purpose folded (in his breast).

The third line is weak. Its place is odd, and therefore for it incorrect. Its subject would vent his evil purpose, but has not strength to do so. He is left therefore to the shame which he ought to feel without a word of warning.
