36. Darkness · 明夷 六五
Line 5 of hexagram 36
In practice
For now you can't withdraw to better circumstances, so you have to stay where you are, with your mind fixed on your goal and a low profile so you don't draw attention.
The poetry
The wounded light of Jizi. Constancy is favorable.
六五：箕子之明夷，利貞。
象曰：箕子之貞，明不可息也。
