3. Initial Obstacles · 屯 六三
Line 3 of hexagram 3
In practice
Right now obstacles aren't solved by acting: they're solved by stepping back until conditions improve.
The poetry
Chasing the deer with no gamekeeper, only going deeper into the forest. The noble person sees the sign and would rather let it go. Going on: distress.
六三：即鹿无虞，惟入于林中，君子幾不如舍，往吝。
象曰：即鹿无虞，以從禽也。君子舍之，往吝窮也。
