Hexagram 62 · 小過 xiǎo guò
Slight Overreach · line 4
九四:无咎,弗過遇之,往厲必戒,勿用永貞。
The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject falling into no error, but meeting (the exigency of his situation), without exceeding (in his natural course). If he go forward, there will be peril, and he must be cautious. There is no occasion to be using firmness perpetually.
James Legge, 1882
Hexagram 62 Slight Overreach · Judgement
小過:亨,利貞,可小事,不可大事,飛鳥遺之音,不宜上,宜下,大吉。
Hsiâo Kwo indicates that (in the circumstances which it implies) there will be progress and attainment. But it will be advantageous to be firm and correct. (What the name denotes) may be done in small affairs, but not in great affairs. (It is like) the notes that come down from a bird on the wing;—to descend is better than to ascend. There will (in this way) be great good fortune.
James Legge, 1882
