27. Nourishment · 頤 六五
Line 5 of hexagram 27
In practice
Being aware of your limits in helping others and asking advice on how to do it will bring you moderate achievements, not extraordinary ones, but it's something.
The poetry
Against the norm. Abiding in constancy brings good fortune. The great river cannot be crossed.
六五：拂經，居貞吉，不可涉大川。
象曰：居貞之吉，順以從上也。
