57. Gentleness · 巽 九五
Line 5 of hexagram 57
In practice
It's time to change course. Reflect before you set out; once you know what you want, taking action will make your success certain.
The poetry
Constancy brings good fortune. Regret vanishes. Nothing that is not favorable. No beginning, yet an end. Three days before the geng day, three days after the geng day: good fortune.
九五：貞吉悔亡，无不利。无初有終，先庚三日，後庚三日，吉。
象曰：九五之吉，位正中也。
