53. Gradual Progress · 漸 九五
Line 5 of hexagram 53
In practice
In the middle of your progress you're cut off, and hostile people stir up misunderstandings around you. All you can do is wait calmly for this to pass; it will pass on its own.
The poetry
The wild goose moves by degrees to the hill. For three years the wife does not conceive; in the end nothing overcomes her. Good fortune.
九五：鴻漸于陵，婦三歲不孕，終莫之勝，吉。
象曰：終莫之勝，吉；得所愿也。
