Hexagram 24 Turning Back · Judgement

復:亨。出入无疾,朋來无咎。反復其道,七日來復,利有攸往。

Fû indicates that there will be free course and progress (in what it denotes). (The subject of it) finds no one to distress him in his exits and entrances; friends come to him, and no error is committed. He will return and repeat his (proper) course. In seven days comes his return. There will be advantage in whatever direction movement is made.

James Legge, 1882
