49. Renewal · 革 九三

Line 3 of hexagram 49

In practice

Neither dragging things out nor acting in too much of a hurry is the right way to go about it now. Ask for signs, so you act at the right moment.

The poetry

Setting out brings misfortune. Constancy is in danger. When word of the change has come round three times, there is sincere trust.

九三:征凶,貞厲,革言三就,有孚。

象曰:革言三就,又何之矣。
