27. Nourishment · 頤 六三
Line 3 of hexagram 27
In practice
Watch the balance between your worldly food and your higher food closely: tending only to the first, and overindulging, brings misfortune.
The poetry
Going against sustenance. Even with constancy, misfortune. For ten years, do not act. Nothing is favorable.
六三：拂頤，貞凶，十年勿用，无攸利。
象曰：十年勿用，道大悖也。
