第 16 卦 · 雷地豫

豫卦原文
豫。利建侯行师。

象曰：雷出地奋，豫。先王以作乐崇德，殷荐之上帝，以配祖考。

白话文解释
豫卦：有利于封侯建国，出兵打仗。
《象辞》说：本卦上卦为震，震为雷，下卦为坤，坤为地。春雷轰鸣，大地震动，催发万物，这是豫卦的卦象。先王观此卦象，取法于声满大地的雷鸣，制作音乐，歌功颂德，光荣归于上帝，光荣归于祖考。
《断易天机》解
豫卦震上坤下，为震宫初世卦。雷出地奋，象征春雷使万物苏醒，君王之威行于子民，因此有利于建候、行师。

北宋易学家邵雍解
雷出地上，悦服快乐；安乐之中，预防忧患。
得此卦者，顺天应时，事事吉祥，可得长辈之助，但须防色难，切不可沉迷于声色欢场之中。

身体：祷告静心。

传统解卦
这个卦是异卦（下坤上震）相叠，坤为地，为顺；震为雷，为动。雷依时出，预示大地回春。因顺而动，和乐之源。此卦与谦卦互为综卦，交互作用。
大象：雷出于地上，阳气奋发，万物欣欣向荣。
运势：如意安泰，可得长辈扶助，但须防色难，凡事应有备而战。
事业：十分顺利，事业可以获得成功，但必须符合实际，顺应潮流，且得自己努力奋斗，树立远大目光，尤其不可因事业的顺利而放松谨慎小心的态度，陷于懒散享乐。否则，必将后悔莫及。
经商：时运已到，应大胆行动，即使发生挫折，也可以很快化险为夷。应加强同他人的合作，开诚布公，共同开发事业。
求名：天资聪颖，如能坚守正直的品德，严格要求自己，努力上进，不因有成绩骄傲满足，停止前进，而是兢兢业业，不惰不怠，必定可以有重大成功。
婚恋：十分顺利，一生顺利和吉祥，但万不可掉以轻心，更不可玩弄感情，否则将会出现悲剧。
决策：一生顺利，不会出现大的波折，容易比较顺利得到自己应该得到的。但关键在于自己的努力和奋斗，不得耽于安乐，不可玩物丧志。豁达、大度更有利于健康和长寿。一旦遇到意外的灾害，只要时时严格要求自己，坚守纯正，乐不忘忧，居安思危，必可转危为安。

第十六卦的哲学含义

雷地豫卦，由坤卦和震卦组成，下坤上震，坤为地，为顺；震为雷，为动。雷依时出，预示大地回春。
从卦象上看，坤为地在下，是万物生长之处，震为雷在上，雷在沉寂的大地上发生轰鸣，表明春天来了，给万物带来了生机，所以形成了万物合乐的局面。震为动在上，坤为顺在下，说明震在前动，坤在后顺其意志而行，从而显出彼此的和好，其乐无穷的气氛。
豫卦位于谦卦之后，《序卦》之中这样说道：“有大而能谦必豫，故受之以豫。”在此之前是大有卦与谦卦，接着一定是代表愉悦的豫卦。豫卦与谦卦互为正覆关系，“豫”有愉悦之意，但也有居安思危的预备之意。
《象》中这样解释豫卦：雷出地奋，豫。先以作乐崇德，殷荐之上帝，以配祖考。
《象》中指出：雷从地下出来，万物振作，这就是豫卦。古代君王学习这种精神，制作音乐来推崇道德，并以隆重的仪式向上帝祭祀，连带也向祖先祭祀。
雷地豫卦启示了顺时依势的道理，属于中中卦。《象》中这样来断此卦：太公插下杏黄旗，收妖为徒归西歧，自此青龙得了位，一旦谋望百事宜。
豫卦之象:有两重山，为出字；官人在中，出求贵义；一鹿一马，指禄马运动；金钱数锭一堆者，乃厚获钱钞无数，占者得之求才遇贵吉利之兆。凤凰生雏之卦，万物发生之象。

16.雷地豫(䷏)-高岛易断
按：“豫”字从象，从牙，左旁之牙垂地，象之大者也。象性柔缓，进退多疑，以其外行安舒，一俯一仰，而不抑藏，故以安舒不抑藏为豫，遂以《豫》名卦。卦体《坤》下《震》上，《坤》下顺而载乎上，《震》上动而振乎下，盖谓扬舒于外，而不抑藏于内，是以为《豫》也。《豫》与《谦》对，《序卦》曰，“有大而能《谦》必《豫》，故受之以《豫》”，此《豫》所以次于《谦》也。
豫：利建侯行师。
▲　甲骨文豫
《豫》，和悦也，《震》动也；《坤》，顺也，上动而下顺，故“利”。《坤》为国，《震》为侯，是以利于建侯；《坤》为业，《震》为行，是以利于行师。夫不动则不威，不顺则不利，以顺而动，所以君立而民顺，师出而有功，利莫大焉，故《传》曰“顺以动”。主万邦，集大众，非《豫》不能也。
《 彖传》曰：豫，刚应而志行，顺以动，豫。豫顺以动，故天地如之，而况建侯行师乎？天地以顺动，故日月不过，而四时不忒；圣人以顺动，则刑罚清而民服。豫之时义大矣哉！
卦体下《坤》上《震》，《震》雷《坤》地，有雷出地奋之象。《坤》地静也，纯阴主闭，闭极则郁结而不畅；《震》动也，阳气动而万物出，故悦。九四一阳当《坤》之交，静极而始动，闭极而始宣，不先不后，应时顺动，故曰《豫》。夫天下之事，逆理而动者，其心常劳，其事多难，惟以顺动，从容不迫，此心安和，故“刚应而志行”，全在顺以动之也。顺而动，在天则“四时不忒”，在人则动止和顺，其“建侯”也，屏藩五国，其“行师”也，吊民伐罪，皆出于豫乐之义，谓之“刚应而志行，顺以动，豫”也。盖“顺以动”三字，为此卦之德性，故“天地如之，况建侯行师乎”？天地顺动以下，言豫之功用无比。“日月不过”者，谓日月之行度无过差；“刑罚清而民服”者，谓圣代至治之准则。狱讼衰息，民志大畏，协中而民服也。盖圣人无心，惟顺物而动，彼善则顺其善而赏之，彼恶则顺其恶而罚之，不敢稍存偏私，刑无过刑，罚无过罚，而刑罚自清。如此皆出于“顺动”之德，三才之道，万物之理，皆不过此，故曰“豫之时义大矣哉”。《彖传》前曰“顺以动”，后曰“以顺动”。“顺以动”者，就卦象之自然释之；“以顺动”者，就人事之作用而说。曰“天地”，曰“圣人”，相对而言也，后“则”字，对上文，当用故字，今曰“则”字，大有意味。“天地以顺动”者，即亘万古而无有退转，必然之定理也，以“故”字承之。《 易》中单称“圣人”者，即指天子，盖必有圣人之德者，而后富有四海，尊为天子，是谓顺命。文王、周公、孔子之圣，皆不得其时，不得其位，是则圣人之在天位，有不可必然者，故后文以“则”字承之，是此篇之主眼，《易》教之本意也。故以天地日月四时为宾，以圣人为主，重在圣人一句，读者匆匆匆看过。
凡《象传》用“大矣哉”，共有十二卦，其上有曰“时义”，有曰“时用”，或单言“时”。其中曰“时义大矣哉”五卦，《豫》、《随》、《遁》、《姤》、《旅》是也，言浅旨深，欲人熟思之也。曰“时用大矣哉”三卦，《坎》、《睽》、《蹇》是也，虽皆非美事，圣人有时而用之。曰“时大矣哉”四卦，《颐》、《大过》、《解》、《革》是也，皆因大事变而警诫之。要之其义各有取也。
以此卦拟人事，此卦五柔一刚，其人必多柔少刚。柔主顺，刚主动，柔必应刚而能行，故曰“应”。夫“刚应而志行，顺以动，豫”，天地之动，日月往来，而四时乃定，圣人则之，以定刑罚，而万民乃服。人处天地之中，沐圣人之化，人而在下，无所谓建侯，凡求友亲师者类是；无所谓行师，凡祛邪嫉恶者类是，凡有所动，皆当法天地之顺，斯动无过则也。能顺天地，则天地亦顺之，使得永保其安豫；若过豫而不省，则必将为初六之“凶”，六三之“悔”，六五之“疾”，上六之“冥”，是自失其豫矣。其为豫，乃其所为忧也，必如六二之“介”，九四之“勿疑”，斯得焉。人固当顺理而动，动顺夫理，动乃无咎，所以豫也。
以此卦拟国家。《震》为动而在上，《坤》为顺而居下，上动下顺，是上行威令，下皆顺从也，故曰“主万帮，聚大众，非豫不能也”。夫天下之人不同，其心同也，天下之心不同，其理同也，己能顺理而动，则人莫不顺之。九四一阳，居执政之位，有刚明之德，威权赫赫，以统治国家，故卦中众阴皆和顺而悦服。《震》为侯，为建，《坤》为国，为臣民，为顺，即为臣民服从之象。四为成卦之主，与六五之君，阴阳相比，而辅佐之，使万民豫乐和顺。至其行政，一法天道，如寒极则温风至，暑极则凉风至，世之所好好之，世之所恶恶之，赏罚公明，毫无私意，是豫之时也。但执政负国家之重，威权独揽，未免近逼，或致动群僚之“疑”，启君心之“疾”，尾大不掉，亦可惧也。惟当尽其至诚，勿有疑虑，乃能合众力以安其上，庶几上之信任愈隆，将赏其功劳，而封建为侯，有不服王命者，即命之以征伐。上卦《震》之方伯，动而俱进，下卦《坤》之众民，悦而顺从，谓之“利建侯行师”。四体《震》，《震》为长子，故曰“建侯”；以一阳统众阴，故曰“行师”。此卦五爻以下，有《比》之众，《比》为建国亲侯，故曰“建侯”；三爻以上，有师之象，故曰“行师”。“利”字括“建侯”“行师”两行，豫之时势如此。上下悦乐之余，《豫》之极，危之基也，所当反之以《谦》，一转移而天下治乱安危系焉。惟其善则归君，过则归己，利公而不专，害审而不避，是为大臣处《豫》之道，而上下交泰矣。
通观此卦，其要旨不出“顺以动”三字。凡顺之至者，不动则不悦，动而顺应，故悦。未顺则不先，既顺则不后，由气机之自然而已。豫之时心劳意足，其乐已极，处乐之极，遂至纵情逸欲，流连忘返，亦恒情所不免也。圣人忧之，故未《豫》而先者为“鸣豫”，不动者为“介”豫，坐而观者为“盱”，当豫而顺者为“由，”过豫而不忘者为“疾”，极豫而忘返者为“冥”。在初爻则戒其“穷”，在六三则警其“悔”，在六五则防其“疾”，在上六之“渝”，则危不可长，幸其终改。“鸣”、“盱”、“疾”、“冥”四者，居《豫》之咎，所谓失豫者也。惟六二之“介于石”，为能熟察忧乐治乱之机，故顺莫善于“贞”，动莫善于“由”，“贞”以待顺，“由”以行动，由未豫而豫必至，既豫而豫不忧。天地圣人之悦豫无疆者，惟其能处乎豫也。读此卦而圣人谆谆于世之意，可见矣。
按：六爻言《豫》不同。初六上六之《豫》，逸豫也；六二之《豫》，几先之豫也；六三之《豫》，犹豫也；九四之《豫》，和豫也；六五之疾，弗豫也；《彖》之言《豫》，众人和同之豫也；爻之言《豫》，各人一己之豫也。要之示悦豫之必与众同，非可自私之意也。盖人事不可无豫，人心不可有豫也。
《大象》曰：雷出地奋，豫。先王以作乐崇德，殷荐之上帝，以配祖考。
雷者，得时而奋出地上，阳气宣发，震动有声，足以鼓动天地之和，发越阴阳之气，通达和畅，《豫》之象也。故先王法震之动以作乐，为象其声以鸣盛也；先王法《坤》之顺以崇德，为明其体以报功也。盖乐之作也，近而闺门，远而邦国，显而人事，幽而鬼神，无不用之。至于荐上帝而上帝来格，配祖考而祖考来享，幽感明孚，《豫》之所以为《豫》也。故《履》为《 易》中之礼，《豫》为《易》中之乐，人君克体此意，以使万民乐和，《豫》之至也。

Judgment
Legge: Enthusiasm indicates that feudal princes may be set up and the army advantageously mobilized.
Wilhelm/Baynes: Enthusiasm. It furthers one to install helpers and to set armies marching.
Blofeld: Repose profits those engaged in building up the country and sending forth armies. [This means that perfect certainty as to the rightness of our cause is of great value under the conditions mentioned. The usual meaning of this character is "beforehand" or "happiness." In the English translation of Wilhelm's version, it appears as "enthusiasm." "Repose" was suggested by the Chinese experts who kindly vetted this manuscript. At first I felt hesitant about adopting it, until I realized that, where it is used favorably, it must be understood as the kind of mental repose which follows absolute confidence that the action now being taken is the right one. In lines one, three and six, however, it clearly means failure to act when action is essential; in line five, failure to act owing to incapacity.]
Liu: Happiness. It is of benefit to build up the country (or business), and send the army forth. [Receivers of this hexagram should be wary of exhibiting excessive enthusiasm when beginning a new undertaking. If they are not, there will be misfortune. The hexagram also advises that everything necessary for advancement should be made ready. Then if an opportunity presents itself, it should be seized immediately, without hesitation.]
Ritsema/Karcher: Providing-for, Harvesting: installing feudatories to move legions. [This hexagram describes your situation in terms of what is needed to meet the future. It emphasizes that accumulating strength through foresight and prudence so things can be fully enjoyed is the adequate way to handle it. To be in accord with the time, you are told to: provide-for!]
Shaughnessy: Excess: Beneficial to establish a lord and to move troops.

Cleary (1): Joy. It is advantageous to set up a ruler and mobilize the army.
Wu: Merriment indicates the advantage of establishing principalities and taking military actions.
The Image
Legge: Thunder exploding out of the Earth -- the image of Enthusiasm. The ancient kings, in accordance with this, composed their music and honored virtue, offering it especially to God when they worshipped him at the service of their ancestors.
Wilhelm/Baynes: Thunder comes resounding out of the earth: the image of Enthusiasm. Thus the ancient kings made music in order to honor merit, and offered it with splendor to the Supreme Deity, inviting their ancestors to be present.
Blofeld: This hexagram symbolizes thunder over the earth. The ancient rulers venerated heaven's gifts with solemn music and they sacrificed abundantly to the Supreme Lord of Heaven in order to be worthy of their ancestors.
Liu: Thunder arising from the earth symbolizes Happiness. The ancient kings composed music to honor virtue, offering it to God and the spirits of their ancestors.
Ritsema/Karcher: Thunder issuing-forth-from earth impetuously. Providing-for. The Earlier Kings used arousing delight to extol actualizing-tao. Exalting worship's Supreme Above. Using equalizing the grandfather predecessors. [Actualize-tao: ability to follow the course traced by the ongoing process of the cosmos... Linked with acquire, TE: acquiring that which makes a being become what it is meant to be.]
Cleary (1): When thunder emerges the earth stirs: Thus did the kings of yore make music to honor virtue, offering it in abundance to God, thereby to share it with their ancestors.
Wu: Thunder breaks out above the earth with a boom; this is Merriment. Thus the ancient kings used music to praise virtuous accomplishments and made grand offerings to the Supreme Being to be accompanied by their ancestors.
COMMENTARY
Confucius/Legge: Enthusiasm shows one dynamic line inspiring responsive obedience in all the others: devoted obedience takes action. Such obedient action conforms to natural law and creates order and discipline in the people. The planets and the seasons follow their natural cycles. The sages similarly obey the

laws of their nature and the people acknowledge their regulations and punishments as just.
Legge: Enthusiasm shows harmony and contentment throughout the
kingdom -- a time when the people rejoice in their sovereign and readily obey him. At such a time his appointments and any military undertakings would be hailed and supported. Because he is close to the fifth place of dignity, the dynamic fourth line is seen as the chief executive officer of the ruler. The ruler has confidence in him, and all of the magnetic lines yield their obedience. Obedience is the attribute of the lower trigram which here takes the initiative and uses Movement, which is the attribute of the upper trigram. The symbolism of the Image is more obscure than usual. The use of music at sacrifices is supposed to assist in producing the union between God and his worshippers as well as the present and past generations.
NOTES AND PARAPHRASES
Judgment: Delegate authority and gather your forces. The Superior Man synchronizes his will with the intent of the Self via the principles of the Work. Enthusiasm is the reverse of the preceding hexagram of Temperance. In Temperance we saw the calm strength of a mountain concealed within the earth. In Enthusiasm we see thunder exploding out of the ground into the sky: the strength that was formerly tempered and restrained is now released. It is significant to note that while every line of Temperance is more or less
"favorable,” every line of Enthusiasm is either negative or cautionary -- even the generally positive fourth line carries a hint of warning about “doubt.” Negatively, Self-Deception (the passion of True Believers) seems to be what this hexagram is portraying. The figure often suggests a callow or deluded
buoyancy -- the kind of outlook associated with romantic idealists. In its most
negative aspect, Enthusiasm is Intemperance -- the exact opposite of the moderation and restraint shown in the preceding hexagram. The behavior of an untrained Great Dane puppy suddenly bursting into a formal dinner party could be described as "enthusiasm,” but hardly a desirable form thereof. The lower trigram of Obedient Devotion has suddenly employed the action and energy of the upper trigram of Thunderous Shock to express itself. This is inconsistent with the code of the superior man. Conversely, in its most positive sense, Enthusiasm suggests the surety of total self-confidence. Blofeld translates this as Repose, explaining that the name was suggested to him by his Chinese advisors. We begin to understand this subtle distinction when we compare the seemingly obscure connection with music in the Image with a passage from Chuang- tse:

He who understands the music of heaven lives in accordance with nature in his life and takes part in the process of change of things in his death. In repose, his character is in harmony with the yin principle; in activity, his movement is in harmony with the yang principle. Therefore he who understands the music of heaven is not blamed by heaven or criticized by men ... It is said, "In action he is like heaven. In repose he is like the earth ... Because his mind has found repose, therefore the creation pays homage to him.” To understand “the music of heaven” is to attain Repose, which is another way of describing the tranquility that comes with furthering the intent of the Self. The only dynamic line in the hexagram is in the minister's place just below the fifth-line ruler. He has the confidence of his sovereign and his actions therefore accord with heaven. We can turn to the Stoics to find an illustration of this idea: My will is simply that which comes to pass. For I esteem what God wills better than what I will. To Him will I cleave as His minister and attendant; having the same movements, the same desires, in a word the same will as He. -- Epictetus Thus we see that the hexagram can describe either one of two opposite
conditions -- the intemperate Enthusiasm of ego-confidence (a synonym for Self-Deception), or the calm Repose of true SELF-confidence. The fifteenth and sixteenth hexagrams, each the inverse of the other, represent magnetic and dynamic aspects of the same general idea: Enthusiasm, when it emanates from the Self, is just Temperance in action.

初六变卦

  初六爻动变得周易第51卦：震为雷。这个卦是同卦（下震上震）相叠。震为雷，两震相叠，反响巨大，可消除沉闷之气，亨通畅达。平日应居安思危，怀恐惧心理，不敢有所怠慢，遇到突发事变，也能安然自若，谈笑如常。

初九爻的哲学含义

豫卦第一爻，爻辞：初六：鸣豫，凶。
从卦像上看，初六位于豫卦的最底端，没有什么地位，但是因为其能与九四相应，有这个卦中唯一的领导的“关照”，所以心生得意。
象曰：“初六鸣豫”，志穷凶也。
这就是说，初六在最低位又德行修养不够，却自鸣得意，会导致凶险。
初六爻阴爻居于阳位，并且与九四阳爻相应，由于豫卦的背景是和平年代的娱乐，所以初六与九四有贪图享乐的含义。谦卦的初六爻辞为“鸣谦”，前面已经讲过了，是宣扬谦虚之德。而这里是“鸣豫”，即宣扬享乐之意。其“鸣”的含意与谦卦所述的意思相同。所以此处的“鸣豫”中初六与九四互相应和、共鸣一种享乐的思想。和平年代人们追求享乐本无可厚非，但是如果一味贪求，享乐过分，则会有凶险。所以初六的爻辞为凶险。这就好比李隆基和杨玉环纵情享乐的时候，而等待他们的却是一个盛世的结束，叛乱的开始。所以说和平年代，应当提高精神文明建设，以杜绝人们的奢欲。

初六：鸣豫，凶。
《象传》曰：初六鸣豫，志穷，凶也。
“鸣豫”者，自鸣得意之谓，悦豫之情动于心，而发于声者也。初爻阴柔不才，居最下之位，与四相应，恃其爱眷，心满意溢，不胜其悦，应而自鸣，其凶可知也，故曰“鸣豫，凶”。《象传》曰“志穷，凶也”。“穷”谓满极，初才得志，便为满极，盖时方来而志已先穷矣，故凶。一说穷在凶下，谓志凶穷也。
按：《豫》初六，与《谦》上六相反，《谦》上曰“鸣谦”，应九三而鸣也；《豫》初曰“鸣豫”，应九四而鸣也。鸣人之谦吉，鸣己之豫凶，故曰：“《谦》可鸣。《豫》不可鸣也。”
【占】　问时运：初运颇佳，但一经得意，使尔夸张，以致穷也。
○　问商业：初次必得利，不可过贪。
○　问家宅：恐鸟啼猿啸，致有怪异之惊，凶。
○　问疾病：不利。
○　问讼事：鸣冤不直，宜自罢讼。
○　问失物：不得。
【例】　余一日赴横滨访亲友某氏，客有先在者，求余一占，筮得《豫》之《震》。
断曰：此卦九四一阳，得时与位，威权赫赫，上下五阴皆从之。今足下得初爻，四爻阴阳相应，有大受爱顾之象。足下得其爱顾，藉其权势，颇有扬扬自得之意，谓之“鸣豫，凶”。占筮如此，劝足下宜顾身慎行。客怫然而去。
客归后，主人告余曰，彼以其女为某贵显之妾，时时出入其邸，卑鄙谄谀，无所不至。时或假贵显手书，历赴诸外县，以营私利。又临豪商等集会宴席，举动效如贵显亲族，诳惑俗人。今君占断，道破小人心事，使彼不堪惭愧而去。

Line-1
Legge: The first line, magnetic, shows its subject proclaiming her pleasure and satisfaction. There will be evil.
Wilhelm/Baynes: Enthusiasm that expresses itself brings misfortune.
Blofeld: The crowing of the cock bespeaks repose -- an evil omen! [A sleepy cockcrow is not likely to bring men leaping from their beds, yet the traditional role of the cock is to sound the call to renewed action.]
Liu: Happiness that shows itself off brings misfortune.
Ritsema/Karcher: Calling Provision. Pitfall. [Provide(-for)/Provision, YU: ready, prepared for; prearrange, take precaution, think beforehand; satisfied, contented, at ease.]

Shaughnessy: Calling out in excess; inauspicious.
Cleary (1): Trumpeting joy is inauspicious.
Wu: Crowing over merriment will be foreboding.
COMMENTARY
Confucius/Legge: Her wishes have been satisfied to overflowing. Wilhelm/
Baynes: This leads to the misfortune of having the will obstructed. Blofeld: The evil mentioned in this passage is that which results from utter exhaustion of the will-power. Ritsema/Karcher: Purpose exhausted, pitfall indeed. Cleary (2): Trumpeting joy bodes ill when the aspiration reaches an impasse. [The first yin harmonizes with the fourth yang above and rejoices in this; having no real qualities in oneself, only aspiring to cleave to others, how can one not come to an impasse?] Wu: Lacking aspiration will be foreboding.
Legge: Line one is magnetic, with a dynamic correlate in the fourth place. She may well enjoy the happiness of the time, but unable to contain herself, she erupts in boastful enthusiasm and calls undue attention to herself. Enthusiasm has thus been her undoing.
NOTES AND PARAPHRASES
Siu: At the outset, the man is enthusiastic and boastful.
Wing: Although you may have a harmonious connection with someone in a high position, it does not necessarily indicate that you are on top of the situation. Furthermore, if you boast of your advantage, you will surely invite disaster.
Editor: The meaning here can be subtle. Something (a strong emotion or attitude perhaps) is upsetting one’s equilibrium. In addition to the usual meaning of “enthusiasm,” this can symbolize any release or loss of energy (even despair, anguish, depression or grief – “Anti-Enthusiasm,” if you will), which serves to demolish Repose. Shaughnessy labels it Excess. Wilhelm and Blofeld render the Confucian commentary in terms of the obstruction or exhaustion of willpower. Ritsema/Karcher describe a loss of purpose; Cleary and Wu, blocked aspiration. If this is the only changing line, the hexagram changes to Shock, a plausible consequence in this case. But woe unto you that are rich! For ye have received your consolation. Woe unto you that are full! For ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! For ye shall mourn and weep.
Luke 6: 24-25

A. A false sense of well-being – or, a false sense of despair. Examine the situation to determine where your conscious outlook or emotional response does not conform with the goals of the Work.
B. Ego/Self Repose is obstructed by inappropriate belief.

九二爻的哲学含义

占得此爻者，你要保持清醒，不要在娱乐中放纵自己而忘了该办的正事。这样，你就能做到享乐、事业两不误。
在这个方面有一个反面的例子，就是刘备的儿子刘禅。刘禅庸碌无能，贪图享乐，沉溺其中。在位前期，主要依靠诸葛亮来治理国政。自诸葛亮死后，刘禅更加昏庸无道，贪图享乐，不理朝政，宦官黄皓乘机取宠弄权，结党营私，朝政日非。魏国来攻，刘禅反缚自己双手，出城投降。在魏国时还是沉溺于玩乐之中，乐不思蜀。
占得此爻者，要深知欢乐必须适中有度，并能固守贞正之道，这样才会有吉祥的结果。

六二：介于石，不终日，贞吉。
《象传》曰：不终日，贞吉，以中正也。
“介于石”者，谓操守坚固，而不可移动也。夫逸豫之道，恣则失正，故《豫》之诸爻，多不得正，惟此爻以中正居阴，其与九四之刚，非应非比，有自守独立之操，其节之介，犹石之坚也。夫人之处豫也，或洋洋而自得，或恋恋而不舍，或昏迷而不悟，是皆失其正中矣，遂致豫方来而祸即随之，世之不知自守者，往往如此。六二独节操坚固，不为外物所动，知豫乐之不可恋，而去之不待终日，其察理甚明，其操身甚固，其审几甚决，其避患甚速，故曰“介于石，不终日，贞吉”。“介”者，坚确不拔之谓，所谓“不以三公 易其介”者是也。惟其能介，是以中正也，《象传》曰“以中正也”；惟“以中正”，故能辨之明，知之速也。按此爻互卦为艮，《艮》为石，故有“介于石”之象。
【占】　问时运：其人品行高尚，不随世为隆汙，吉。
○　问商业：能决定己志，不为奸商摇惑，贩运快速，获利。
○　问家宅：主家者宜严正持之，凡非人来往，速宜斥绝。吉。
○　问战征：所谓守之如山，发之如火，能审机也。
○　问疾病：新疾即愈，夙疾即亡，终日间也。
○　问六甲：生女，即产。
【例】　明治二十二年，某局属官某氏来访，曰：余自明治四年创局之始，奉职一等属，尔来十八年，日夜黾勉，当事务多端之冲，未尝少怠，足下之所知也。部下新任者，多升上任，今日居我上者，大概昔日之部下也。凡所升迁，亦非有过人之学问，余甚不慊于意，本欲辞职，犹恐别无位置，是以郁郁居此。请为一筮，以占后来气运。筮得《豫》之《解》。
断曰：此卦九四一阳，专擅威权，五阴不得不应之。今占得二爻，与九四非应非比，故于足下眷顾独薄。在足下品行中正，不事谄媚，惟以坚守职务为事，确乎不拔，如石之介，凡非分之事，惟恐浼焉，避之甚速，故曰“介于石，不终日，贞吉”。然自二爻进之四爻，气运一变，三年后，必可升进。
后至明治二十四年，此人果升高等官。

Line-2
Legge: The second line, magnetic, shows one who is firm as a rock. She sees a thing without waiting till it has come to pass; with her firm correctness there will be good fortune.
Wilhelm/Baynes: Firm as a rock. Not a whole day. Perseverance brings good fortune.
Blofeld: Unmoved as a rock; before the end of day, righteous persistence will bring good fortune. [Unmoved as a rock because of the repose which results from absolute confidence in a decision already taken.]
Liu: Firm and stable like a rock. Do not wait a whole day. Continuing brings good fortune.
Ritsema/Karcher: Chain-mail tending-towards petrification: Not completing the day. Trial: significant.
Shaughnessy: Scratched on a rock; not to the end of the day; determination is auspicious.
Cleary (1): Firm as a rock, not procrastinating, rectitude is good.
Wu: He is upright like a rock. In less time than the passing of the day, he discriminates the good from the bad. To be persevering is auspicious.
COMMENTARY
Confucius/Legge: This is shown by the central and correct position of the line. Wilhelm/Baynes: Because it is central and correct. Blofeld: This is indicated by the suitable position of this line which is central to the lower trigram. Ritsema/Karcher: Using centering correcting indeed. Cleary (2): It is balanced in the right way. Wu: Because he is central and correct.
The Master said: "Does not he who knows the inception of things possess spirit-like wisdom? The superior man, in his intercourse with the high, uses no flattery, and, in his intercourse with the low, no coarse freedom: does not this show that he knows the inception of things? Those beginnings are the slight stirrings of movement, and the earliest

indications of good fortune or ill. The superior man sees them, and acts accordingly without waiting for the delay of a single day. As is said in the I Ching, `He is firm as a rock, and acts without waiting for the delay of a single day. With firm goodness there will be good fortune.' Firm as a rock, how should he have to wait a single day to ensure his knowing those beginnings and his course? The superior man knows the minute and the manifested; he knows what is weak, and what is strong: he is a model to ten-thousand."
Legge: The magnetic second line is in her correct central position in the lower trigram. Quietly and firmly she is able to abide in her place and exercise a farseeing discrimination. All is indicative of good fortune.
NOTES AND PARAPHRASES
Siu: The man is quiet, but firm as a rock, yet sensitive to the first imperceptible signs of impending changes. He does not delay in taking action.
Wing: To be able to recognize the early signs of a change in fortune is a tremendous gift. While others may be swept away by compelling rhythms and fads, you adhere firmly to the underlying principles of your nature and react appropriately to the demands of the time. Such is the behavior of leaders.
Editor: All translations except Legge and Cleary's render the second sentence in the imagery of "not waiting for a whole day to pass,” which suggests action taken on the basis of foresight, premonition or intuition. This line is sometimes
an injunction to follow your common sense -- saying in effect, that an oracle is unnecessary to proclaim the obvious.
You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows. -- Bob Dylan
A. Proper discrimination knows when to act, and when to refrain from action.
B. Your own intuition already knows the answer to your query.

周易第十六卦九三爻详解详解
六三爻辞
六三。盱豫，悔。 迟有悔。
象曰：盱豫有悔，位不当也。
白话文解释
六三：懒散游乐，将招致后悔；再加上懈怠大意，那就后悔莫及。
《象辞》说：懒散游乐，将招致后悔，因为六三之爻居于阳位，是处置不当，像人之行事与所处地位不相称。

北宋易学家邵雍解
凶：得此爻者，投机取巧，是非不一。

台湾国学大儒傅佩荣解
时运：本身不正，因而有悔。
财运：稍纵即逝，快速得利。
家宅：速防窃盗。
身体：立即就医。

六三变卦

  六三爻动变得周易第62卦：雷山小过。这个卦是异卦（下艮上震）相叠。艮为山，震为雷，过山雷鸣，不可不畏惧。阳为大，阴为小，卦外四阴超过中二阳，故称“小过”，小有越过。

九三爻的哲学含义

豫卦第三爻，爻辞：六三：盱豫悔；迟有悔。
从卦象上看，整个卦之中九四居于主爻，是全卦之中的领导。六三仰目上望，企图巴结九四。可是六三属于阴爻居于阳位，不得势，位不当，所以无法如愿，结果懊恼。占得此爻者，不必去巴结讨好别人，以求安乐，这样会难以如愿的，必然心生后悔。
从卦象上看，六三一爻在六二、六三、九四组成的互艮中，比六二更接近艮的上爻，艮为止的意思，所以六三不是“不终日”而是“迟”，迟迟不能摆脱诱惑，迟迟不能去做正事，结果必然后悔。
占得此爻者，已经意识到了自己这样耽于安乐是不对的，但是却意志薄弱，无法摆脱诱惑，无法立刻去做正事，这样拖下去，早晚会后悔的。
经文意思是：小人揭上以逸乐惑主，会有忧悔。悔恨太迟更要后悔。象辞意思是：小人媚上以逸乐惑主的忧悔，是因为六三爻阴居阳位的缘故。

六三：盱豫，悔，迟有悔。
《象传》曰：“盱豫有悔，位不当也。
“盱”者，为张目企望之象，譬如见乌之飞，仰瞻太空，见鱼之泳，俯眄深渊，不胜眷恋，故曰“盱豫”。六三阴居阳位，不中不正，其所盱者，盖上视九四之权势，而欲趋附之也。九四为一卦之主，居大臣之位，独擅威福，众阴皆归附之，六三是以惟盱瞻视，欲冀攀援，以固豫悦，谓之“盱豫”。九四以其窥探窃视，不得中正，为所鄙弃，是以有悔也。既知其悔，当翻然立改，效六二之介，决意远避，不俟终日，悔复何有？若一念以为悔，一念以为豫，迟疑不决，流连不返，悔必难免矣，故曰“悔，迟有悔”。“迟”之一字，可谓当头一棒，提醒昏昏，教其及早审悟也，最当玩味。《象传》曰“位不当也”，谓其柔居阳位，优柔不决，不当其位也。此爻变则为《巽》为不果，故知悔而犹不改，有迟疑不决之象。
【占】　问时运：目下运非不佳，在自己作为不正，是以有悔。
○　问商业：能窥探商情，为商家之能事，然一得消息，卖买宜决，若一迟疑，便落人后。
○　问家宅：须防窃盗，宜速警备。
○　问失物：速寻则得，迟则无矣。
○　问讼事：宜速了结。
【例】　某县官吏，携友人介书来访，请占气运。筮得《豫》之《小过》。
断曰：此卦九四一阳得时，上下五阴皆归应之，足下占得三爻，与四爻阴阳亲比，可知长官意气相投。然在他人见之，或未免有阿谀长官，假弄威福之嫌。今后宜注意，毋贻后日之悔。后闻长官转任他县，此人请附骥尾，其事不成，遂辞其职。

Line-3
Legge: The third line, magnetic, shows one looking up for favors, while she indulges the feeling of pleasure and satisfaction. If she would understand! If she be late in doing so, there will indeed be occasion for repentance.
Wilhelm/Baynes: Enthusiasm that looks upward creates remorse. Hesitation brings remorse.

Blofeld: To gaze reposefully brings regret; tardy action brings regret. [This suggests inactivity prolonged beyond reasonable measure.]
Liu: Looking upward leads to remorse. Delay brings regret.
Ritsema/Karcher: Skeptical Providing-for, repenting. Procrastinating possesses repenting.
Shaughnessy: A bowl's excess; regret; being slow there is regret.
Cleary (1): Looking up to joy, if repentance is tardy, there will be regret.
Cleary (2): Looking up in joy, repent. If too late, there is regret.
Wu: Gazing at merriment will bring regret. Loitering about will bring regret.
COMMENTARY
Confucius/Legge: This is intimated by the position not being the appropriate one. Wilhelm/Baynes: The place is not the appropriate one. Blofeld: This is indicated by the line's unsuitable position. Ritsema/ Karcher: Situation not appropriate indeed. Cleary (2): Wu: Because his position is improper.
Legge: Line three is magnetic in a dynamic place. She looks upward and depends upon the ruling line above while she does nothing herself but indulge in pleasure. Unless she changes her attitude, the auspice is bad.
NOTES AND PARAPHRASES
Siu: The man looks upward for favors and continues his dependency upon others. He indulges in visions of pleasure and affluence. Unless he changes immediately, he will be sorry.
Wing: You have waited complacently for a cue from someone else to motivate you. Whatever the reasons for your hesitation, whether it is idle pleasure in the present or simply inertia, you are losing your independence and self-reliance. You can still save yourself. Move.
Editor: This line is magnetic when the times call for dynamic action, giving us an image of indolent dependency. Without doing anything, she wants to "have her cake and eat it too.” Sometimes one receives this line when in a state of despair: feeling as if abandoned to one's fate by an incomprehensible cosmos. The idea is that fate isn't going to make the transition for you: you must do it yourself.

To those who are self-conceited and vain of their imaginary knowledge of exterior things, having no real wisdom, nothing can be shown, because the perverted action of their own minds opposes the harmonious action of the Universal Mind and repulses it. The spheres of their souls become narrow and contracted, and cannot expand towards the whole. They rest self-satisfied, buried in the shadow of their own ignorance, and are inaccessible to the light of Nature.
Paracelsus -- Philosophia Sagax
A. Stop indulging yourself and do what you know to be correct in the matter at hand.
B. Your confidence is misplaced.
C. The image suggests weakness and dependency.

周易第十六卦九四爻详解详解
九四爻辞
九四。由豫，大有得，勿疑，朋盍簪。
象曰：由豫大有得。志大行也。
白话文解释
九四：田猎取乐，大获鸟兽。筮遇此爻，勿疑友人多嘴而谗己。
《象辞》说：田猎取乐，大获鸟兽，说明猎获甚多，如愿以偿。

九四变卦

  九四爻动变得周易第2卦：坤为地。这个卦是同卦（下坤上坤）相叠，阴性。象征地（与乾卦相反），顺从天，承载万物，伸展无穷无尽。坤卦以雌马为象征，表明地道生育抚养万物，而又依天顺时，性情温顺。它以“先迷后得”证明“坤”顺从“乾”，依随“乾”，才能把握正确方向，遵循正道，获取吉利。

九四爻的哲学含义

豫卦第四爻，爻辞：九四：由豫，大有得；勿疑，朋盍簪。
在整个豫卦之中，只有九四这一爻是阳爻。众阴归附所从，朋友前来簪聚，他给人们带来了生机和欢乐。可是，在卦之中九五是君主之位，九四是阳爻居阴位，所以要对九五至诚相待，以免引起怀疑。这样才能上下信服，出现一派合乐的场面。
在这方面有一个典型的例子，便是诸葛亮。刘备死后，他辅佐刘禅，兢兢业业，对刘禅表现出臣子对天子的尊重。诸葛亮既得到了士兵的拥护，也得到了刘禅的信任。占得此爻者，既要注意礼贤下士，又要注意尊重领导，这样才能吉祥。
九四爻是卦中唯一的阳爻，他可以得到众阴爻的应和。所以喜乐自来，会有大的收获。“朋盍簪”是什么意思呢？“朋”便是朋友；“盖”便是相合；“簪”就是聚拢头发用的发针，古代男人也留长发，所以男人与女人都用簪子聚拢头发。这三个合起来便是说将朋友聚集起来，就像用簪子聚拢头发一样。从卦象上看，豫卦九四爻就像一根发簪，其他阴爻则像盘在一起的头发，所以九四的爻辞有“朋盍簪”的说法。众阴爻应和、归顺于九四阳爻，所以会有大的收获，可以得志。

九四：由豫，大有得。勿疑，朋盍簪。
《象传》曰：由豫，大有得，志大行也。
九四以一刚统率众阴，为一卦之主，凡众阴之所豫，皆由九四之豫而为《豫》，故曰“由豫”。四近五，居大臣之位，承柔弱之君，负天下之重，包容诸柔，独得倚任，任大责重，故曰“大有得”也。但当此信任过重， 易致招疑，惟能开诚布公，自然无复疑虑矣。“勿疑”，乃能率众柔以奉上，犹如簪之贯众发而不乱也。“盍”，合也；“朋”，即众柔也。四刚而位居阴，犹得与诸柔相类为朋，故曰“勿疑，朋盍簪”。夫疑则生隙，隙则生忌，忌则众情离散，百事丛脞，虽有安豫之鸿业，必不能得其终也，故戒以“勿疑”。斯猜疑悉绝，上下同心，秉至诚以图事，合群力以从公，众贤汇萃，德泽宏施，足以成天下之豫者，斯之谓欤？《象传》曰“志大行也”，即所谓得志则泽加于民，功施于后。大道之行，可由豫而致也，庶乎交泰之道矣。此卦自初爻观之，为权臣，其豫者逸豫也；自四爻观之，为任政之贤臣，其豫者和豫也。《易》道之变动不居如此。
【占】　问时运：目下正大运方通。
○　问商业：会萃众货，大得利也。
○　问家宅：门庭豫顺，得财得福，大有之家。
○　问功名：即卜弹冠之庆。
○　问讼事：由此罢讼，两造豫悦。
○　问行人：必主满载归来。
○　问出行：由此前行，一路顺风，大得喜悦，可“勿疑”也。
○　问六甲：生男，易长易成，且主贵。
○　问失物：即得。
【例】　一日缙绅某来，请占某贵显气运，筮得《豫》之《坤》。
断曰：此卦春雷得气，奋出地上，有扫除积阴，启发阳和之象。拟之国家，必是祛谗进贤，能致太平之硕辅也。此爻九四一阳，居执政之大位，负国之重任，上承君德，下集群才，斯得大行其志，以启豫顺之休也。今占某贵显气运，得此爻，在某贵显，刚毅有为，德望夙著，固不待言，惟爻辞“勿疑”二字，最当审慎。盖一有疑心，则上下猜忌，庶政丛脞，必不能臻太平之治，故曰“勿疑，朋盍簪”。是某贵显所宜注意也。
缙绅闻之，甚感《 易》理精切，曰：吾他日当转语诸某贵显。
【例】　明治二十八年四月九日，占我国与清国和议之谈判，筮得《豫》之《坤》。
此卦雷出地奋，有威武和乐之象。今占得四爻，爻辞曰“由豫，大有得”，盖谓两国和议，成后大得有为，豫顺之休，由此来也。又曰“勿疑，朋盍簪”，谓从此两无猜疑，如唇依齿，并将合宇内友邦而同欢，犹簪之贯万缕之发而为一也。和议之成，可预决也。四月十七日，果议和约成。
此卦《大象》曰：“先王以作乐崇德，殷荐之上帝，以配祖考。”曰“上帝”，曰“祖考”者，即伊势大庙以下历代之皇灵也。

Line-4
Legge: The fourth line, dynamic, shows him from whom the harmony and satisfaction come. Great is the success which he obtains. Let him not allow suspicions to enter his mind, and thus friends will gather around him.
Wilhelm/Baynes: The source of enthusiasm. He achieves great things. Doubt not. You gather friends around you as a hair clasp gathers the hair.
Blofeld: From repose, great results accrue. Harbor no doubts. Why should it be harmful to befriend this official? [The meaning of this terse question is not obvious; but the enquirer may find it apt in the context either of his question or of subsequent events.]
Liu: The source of happiness. One receives great gain without hesitation. Your friends are already successful.
Ritsema/Karcher: Antecedent Provision. The great possesses acquiring. No doubting. Partners join-together suddenly.
Shaughnessy: Really excess; if one greatly has gain, do not doubt; cowries and shells slander.
Cleary (1): Being the source of joy, there is great gain. Do not doubt. Companions gather.
Wu: Let merriment have its way. There is much to gain. No doubt about it. Friends will unite their hairpins.

COMMENTARY
Confucius/Legge: His aims take effect on a grand scale. Wilhelm/Baynes: His will is done in great things. Blofeld: The first sentence indicates the fullest attainment of our will. Ritsema/Karcher: Purpose: the great moving indeed.
Cleary (2): The aspiration is carried out greatly. Wu: His aspirations are fully realized.
Legge: The dynamic subject of line four is the agent to whom the happy condition is owing, and it is only necessary to caution him to maintain his confidence in himself and his purpose. His adherents and success will continue.
Anthony: The source of enthusiasm is in believing in our path and its ultimate success, because it is correct. We gather friends and helpers when this belief is strong enough that we do not try to convince people or contend with them. Contending comes from the ego, which secretly disbelieves.
NOTES AND PARAPHRASES
Siu: The man is confident, free of suspicions of others, and sincere in his dedication. He instills harmony and satisfaction among his associates. People gather around him in effective cooperation.
Wing: Harmonious times are approaching. It is safe to exhibit your confidence in the future. Your attitude will attract others to you, who will co-operate in your endeavors. In this way you can accomplish great deeds.
Editor: As the only dynamic line in the hexagram, line four is considered to be its ruler. When we note that Legge mentions "harmony and satisfaction" instead of "enthusiasm," we begin to see the meaning behind Blofeld's title of Repose. Indeed, his translation of the line begins: "From repose, great results accrue..." Wilhelm's version gives the idea of consolidating forces "as a hair clasp gathers the hair." Psychologically interpreted, a process of integration is symbolized. The line can sometimes be a gentle admonition to have faith in your own unconscious processes to advance the Work. The One does not aspire to us, to move around us; we aspire to it, to move around it. Actually, we always move around it; but we do not always look. We are like a chorus grouped about a conductor who allow their attention to be distracted by the audience. If, however, they were to turn towards their conductor, they would sing as they should and would really be with him. We are always around The One. If we were not, we would dissolve and cease to exist. Yet our gaze does not remain fixed upon the One. When we look at it, we then attain the end of our desires and find rest.
Plotinus -- The Enneads

A. A powerful force calmly organizes separate elements to effect a synthesis.
B. Quiet SELF-confidence inspires the allegiance of inner forces, accumulating energy for transformation.

六五爻辞
六五。贞疾，恒不死。
象曰：六五贞疾，乘刚也。恒不死，中未亡也。
白话文解释
六五：卜问疾病，长时间内不会死去。
《象辞》说：六五爻辞讲患病，因为六五阴爻居于九四阳爻之上，犯了柔乘刚之象。“长时间不会死去”，因为六五之爻居于上卦中位，正当不死之象。

六五变卦

  六五爻动变得周易第45卦：泽地萃。这个卦是异卦（下坤上兑）相叠。坤为地、为顺；兑为泽、为水。泽泛滥淹没大地，人众多相互斗争，危机必四伏，务必顺天任贤，未雨绸缪，柔顺而又和悦，彼此相得益彰，安居乐业。萃，聚集、团结。

九五爻的哲学含义

豫卦第五爻，爻辞：六五：贞疾，恒不死。
从卦象上看，六五这一爻本来是属于君主之位，可是却是阴爻，而且下面九四是全卦之中唯一的阳爻。六五不得位，势力不如九四，但是因为居中，处于君主这一位置上，所以平安无事。
六五爻得了病，这是怎么回事呢?对此，虞翻的解释是：“坎为疾，坤为死，震为反生，位在震中，与坤体绝，故‘贞疾，恒不死’也。”意思是说，豫卦上互卦为坎，坎含有疾病的意思，所以六五处于疾病的边缘。又由于坤为归藏代表死，可是豫卦的上卦为震，与坤没有一点关系，震有起死回生的含义，六五处于震卦的中位，所以他患有疾病，但不会因此而死亡。但六五得的是什么病呢？是心病。为什么这样说呢？因为坎便代表心病。六五的心病便是对九四的心病。打个比方说，九四是一个男人，众阴爻是他的五个妻子，有一个妻子在家里处干领导地位，凌驾在丈夫之上，这个妻子便是六五爻，为什么六五会有心病呢？因为丈夫更爱六二与六三这两个妻子，有权势的六五自然会吃醋而生心病了。可是由于六五居中，能够做到以中庸之道持家，所以她尽管受了心灵的伤害，但还不至干因此而丢掉性命。不过这种醋劲也使她徘徊在生与死的边缘。若是占问身体健康状况，则意味着会生病，但病小致死。

六五：贞疾，恒不死。
《象传》曰：六五贞疾，乘刚也；恒不死，中未亡也。
“贞疾”者，痼疾，谓不可愈之疾也。上下耽逸乐，即“贞疾”之症。此爻柔中而居尊位，信任九四，九四阳刚得权，众皆归之，六五柔弱之君，受制于专权之臣，欲豫而不能自由，战兢恐惧，中心凛凛，常如痼疾之在身，故曰“贞疾”。疾者豫之反也，《书·金滕》曰，“王有疾，不豫”是也。顾六五虽阴柔，其得君位者，贞也，其受制于下者，疾也，虽失权，其位未亡，故曰“恒不死”。《孝经》曰，“天子有诤臣七人，虽无道，不失其天下”，此之谓也。夫升平之久，人主恒耽逸豫，非以刚暴失势，必以柔懦失权。势孤于上，权移于下，虽未遽亡，而国事日非，为人君者，安可不戒哉！《象传》曰“中未亡也”，盖为四所逼，心恒有疾，幸而得中，故未亡，然曰“未亡”，亦几几乎将至于亡矣，危矣哉！
按：六二与六五，并贞者也。贞者不志于利，故不言豫，然其所以贞不同，故六二得吉，六五得疾。六二本不屑从四，可则进，否则退，故吉；六五以阴居阳，力不能以制四，而心甚疑忌之，故其贞适足为疾而已。贞虽为疾，其中之所守未亡，故“恒不死”，可知居贞之可恃也。
【占】　问时运：知其人本尊贵，因素性柔弱，不能自振。
○　问商业：其基业甚好，因用人不当，钱财落他人之手，几致亏耗。
○　问家宅：恐被借居者侵占，业主反不得自主。
○　问战征：以偏将擅权，主帅失威，虽未丧师，亦幸免也。
○　问疾病：是带病延年之症。
○　问六甲：生男，必有病。
○　问失物：可得。
【例】　相识之富豪某，请占其气运，筮得《豫》之《萃》。
断曰：此卦就一家而论，有家产殷富之象。九四一阳擅权，上下五阴皆应之，如一家之中，旧管家统辖家政，主人居虚位而已。今足下为海内屈指富豪，承累世之旧业，专任一能事管家，统辖事务，主人不得自主，而反受其所制，虽豫乐而不能自由，其状恰如宿疾在身，心甚怏快。幸守此祖宗遗规，不致陨坠，谓之“贞疾，恒不死”。
【例】　明治二十八年十月以来，余横滨本宅侍女，年四十五，罹疾几至危笃，医师多言不治。筮得《豫》之《萃》。
断曰：《豫》者雷出地奋之象，在人为得春阳之气，精神尚能透发，未至衰亡。此疾虽危重，尚不至死。但快愈之后，不能强健如故，犹可延其余喘也，谓之“贞疾恒不死，中未亡也”。后果得快复，今（三十二年）尚存也。

Line-5
Legge: The fifth line, magnetic, shows one with a chronic complaint, but who lives on without dying.
Wilhelm/Baynes: Persistently ill, and still does not die.
Blofeld: Illness is presaged, but it will not last long or cause death.
Liu: Long illness, but still living.
Ritsema/Karcher: Trial: affliction. Persevering, not dying.
Shaughnessy: Determination is illness; if constant you will not die.
Cleary (1): There is a persistent illness, but one never dies.
Cleary (2): Chaste in illness, one never dies.
Wu: It is like having a persistent illness, but not fatal.
COMMENTARY
Confucius/Legge: She is mounted on a dynamic line in the central position, and her memories of the past have not yet perished. Wilhelm/Baynes: It rests upon a hard line. That it nevertheless does not die is due to the fact that the middle has not yet been passed. Blofeld: Illness is indicated because this yielding line comes immediately above a firm one. Recovery rather than death is to be expected because this line is, nevertheless, central to the upper trigram.
Ritsema/Karcher: Trial: affliction. Riding a solid indeed. Persevering, not dying. Center not-yet extinguished indeed. Cleary (2): Being chaste in illness means riding on firmness. Never dying means not losing balance. Wu: Because its position remains central.
Legge: Line five is magnetic in the place of a dynamic ruler, and in danger of being carried away by the lust of enthusiasm. Her proximity to the powerful influence below is a source of danger. Hence she is represented as suffering from a chronic complaint.

NOTES AND PARAPHRASES
Siu: The man is continually complaining. Yet the very struggling against the daily troubles constitutes his immediate incentive for living.
Wing: Total harmony is obstructed and impossible. Yet the very awareness of this will keep you from sinking again into chaos and eventual defeat.
Wilhelm/Baynes: Here enthusiasm is obstructed. A man is under constant pressure, which prevents him from breathing freely. However, this pressure has its advantage – it prevents him from consuming his powers in empty enthusiasm. Thus constant pressure can actually serve to keep one alive.
Anthony: The situation is difficult and uncomfortable. We are still under the influence of striving to achieve results or hedging to prevent them. However, our discomfort is useful in causing us to seek out these attitudes which block our progress.
Editor: At its most neutral, the image suggests a chronic condition currently not amenable to being cured. Sometimes this feels like ironic irritation: the oracle seems to be asking: "When are you ever going to learn?” The ego is clinging to outmoded ways (the "memories" mentioned in Legge's Confucian commentary), and is yet unable to fully comprehend the demands of the Work. If this is the only changing line, the hexagram becomes #45, Gathering Together, with a corresponding line hinting that the source of our illness may be less-than-pristine dedication. Cleary (2): “Gathering around the position, there is no blame. If those who are not loyal remain ever-faithful to their original commitment, regret vanishes.” Better is one’s own dharma, though imperfectly performed, than the dharma of another well performed.

上九爻的哲学含义

豫卦第六爻，爻辞：上六：冥豫成，有渝无咎。
豫卦是愉悦之意，上六是整个卦之中最后一爻，意指愉悦到了极点，有些执迷不悟了。但是因为本卦已到头，再无去路，终究会有变化，如此就可以“无咎”。
上六沉溺于喜乐昏了头，可是能够及早地发现自己的过失，及早地改正，所以不会有大的过失。因为喜乐一过度，喜乐的害处马上就要显出来了，也就是说接下来也就喜乐不成了。不能拥有喜乐了，可是能够认识到喜乐的害处，当然不会再有过失了。
豫卦第六爻，爻辞：上六：冥豫成，有渝无咎。占得此爻者，要反省一下自己，是否因贪玩而耽误了正事，是否养成了纵情玩乐的恶习，使自己陷入了危机之中。如果这样就要及时改正，还是为时不晚。

上六：冥豫。成有渝，无咎。
《象传》曰：冥豫在上，何可长也。
“冥豫”者，昏冥于豫，而不知返者也。此爻以阴柔之性，居豫乐之极，纵欲而不顾，极乐而无厌，故谓之“冥豫”。上六居《豫》之终，在卦之上，纵情逸欲，不觉其非，如入幽冥之室。下卦《坤》，《坤》为冥，是过顺之咎也；上卦《震》，震则动，动则变，变则渝，是以有“渝，无咎”。凡人之溺情私欲者，亦苦于不知改变耳。此爻有雷厉之性，虽昏迷既成，一旦阳刚发动，便能改志变行，复归正道，夫复何咎？《象传》曰，“冥豫在上，何可长也，”示逸豫之不可长，以劝人之反省自新也。故爻辞不责其“冥”之凶，而反称其“渝”之“无咎”，意深哉！此爻变则为《晋》，则无冥暗之咎。凡《 易》曰“渝”者，当以变卦观之也。
【占】　问时运：目下歹运已极，好运将来，翻然振作，大有可为。
○　问商业：宜作变计，改旧从新，必得利益。
○　问家宅：老宅不利，或迁居，或改造，吉。
○　问战征：宜别遣主帅，改旗易辙，乃可得胜；或更就别路进兵。
○　问讼事：宜罢讼和好，无咎。
○　问六甲：逾月可产，得女。
【例】　友人某来谓曰：现今商事繁忙之时，别有见机，着手一事，请占其成否？筮得《豫》之《晋》。
断曰：“冥豫”者，昏冥于豫，是所谓沉溺而不悟者也。在商业上，是妄想图利，而不知其害也。急宜变志，斯可免咎。爻象如是，当知所戒。
某闻此言，大有所感，返守旧业，免致破产。

Line-6
Legge: The sixth line, magnetic, shows its subject with darkened mind devoted to the pleasure and satisfaction of the time. But if she changes her course even when it may be considered as completed, there will be no error.

Wilhelm/Baynes: Deluded enthusiasm. But if after completion one changes, there is no blame.
Blofeld: Madcap repose. Fortunately a change takes place, so no blame is involved. [Madcap repose implies being tardy to the point of extreme rashness in the face of approaching danger or of a need to act.]
Liu: Deluded happiness. Change after completion. No blame.
Ritsema/Karcher: Dim Providing-for. Accomplishment: possessing denial. Without fault.
Shaughnessy: Dark excess; if complete perhaps you will be informed; there is no trouble.
Cleary (1): Oblivious in joy. What comes about has change; there is no blame.
Cleary (2): … What has come about changes, etc.
Wu: Merriment is obscured. There may be success, but changes are pending. There will be no error.
COMMENTARY
Confucius/Legge: How can one in such a condition continue for long?
Wilhelm/Baynes: Deluded enthusiasm in a high place: how could this last?
Blofeld: Since this is a top line, the state of madcap repose cannot possibly last long. Ritsema/Karcher: Dim Providing-for located above. Wherefore permitting long-living indeed? Cleary (2): Oblivion in joy is at the top. What can last? Wu: How can the situation continue for long?
Legge: The magnetic sixth line at the end of the hexagram is all but lost. The action of the figure is over, and if she postpones changing her evil ways any longer, there is no hope remaining for her. However, there is still a chance of safety if she will but change.
NOTES AND PARAPHRASES
Siu: The man is distracted by pleasure and satisfaction. If he changes after the events of the day have run their course, however, the sober awakening will prevent future errors.
Wing: The person in this position is lost in the memory of a compelling and harmonious experience. The time is past, and what is left is empty egotism. Fortunately, reform is possible. There is an opportunity to move on to a situation of new growth.

Editor: This line has a similar auspice as that of its (improper) correlate in line three. Wilhelm's commentary states: "A sober awakening from false enthusiasm is quite possible and very favorable." Note that “no blame” is mentioned, suggesting that you are more ignorant than culpable in the situation at hand. While he is in a state of bondage, that is while lusts and falsities rule, the man who is subjected by them supposes that he is in a state of freedom; but it is a gross falsity, for at the very time he is carried along by the delight of his lusts and of the pleasures derived from them, that is, by the delight of his loves; and because it is by a delight it appears to him as
free. Everyone thinks himself free while he is being led by some love -- so long as he follows whithersoever it leads.
