47. Overwhelmed · 困 九二
Line 2 of hexagram 47
In practice
The troubles right now are on the inside; on the outside, everything is fine. You need to recognize where the problem lies to solve it, and it's wise to seek help.
The poetry
Hard pressed with wine and food. The red sash arrives. It is favorable to make sacrifices. Setting out brings misfortune. No fault.
九二:困于酒食,朱紱方來,利用亨祀,征凶,无咎。
象曰:困于酒食,中有慶也。
