Translated from Richard Wilhelm's German (1924)
The Judgment
The Creative brings about great success,
favorable through persistence.
The Image
The movement of heaven is powerful.
So the noble one makes themselves strong and tireless.
First line, nine
Hidden dragon. Do not act.
Second line, nine
Dragon appearing in the field.
It is favorable to see the great person.
Third line, nine
All day long the noble one is creatively active.
In the evening they are still full of inner concern.
Danger. No fault.
Fourth line, nine
Wavering ascent over the depths. No fault.
Fifth line, nine
Flying dragon in the sky.
It is favorable to see the great person.
Top line, nine
Arrogant dragon will have cause for regret.
When all lines are nines
There appears a host of dragons without a head. Good fortune.
