10. Treading Carefully · 履 上九

Line 6 of hexagram 10

In practice

If you watch for the favorable signs to know when to act, and then act decisively, you'll succeed.

The poetry

Looking back over the steps taken, examining the signs. If it turns back on itself: great good fortune.

上九:視履考祥,其旋元吉。

象曰:元吉在上,大有慶也。
