第25卦 无妄
第25卦 无妄
无妄：元亨。利貞。其匪正有眚，不利有攸往。
XXV. The Wû Wang Hexagram.
Wû Wang indicates great progress and success, while there will be advantage in being firm and correct. If (its subject and his action) be not correct, he will fall into errors, and it will not be advantageous for him to move in any direction.
初九：无妄，往吉。
The first line, undivided, shows its subject free from all insincerity. His advance will be accompanied with good fortune.
六二：不耕穫，不菑畬，則利有攸往。
The second line, divided, shows one who reaps without having ploughed (that he might reap), and gathers the produce of his third year's fields without having cultivated them the first year for that end. To such a one there will be advantage in whatever direction he may move.
六三：无妄之災，或繫之牛，行人之得，邑人之災。
The third line, divided, shows calamity happening to one who is free from insincerity;—as in the case of an ox that has been tied up. A passer by finds it (and carries it off), while the people in the neighbourhood have the calamity (of being accused and apprehended).
九四：可貞，无咎。
The fourth line, undivided, shows (a case) in which, if its subject can remain firm and correct, there will be no error.
九五：无妄之疾，勿藥有喜。
The fifth line, undivided, shows one who is free from insincerity, and yet has fallen ill. Let him not use medicine, and he will have occasion for joy (in his recovery).
上九：无妄，行有眚，无攸利。
The topmost line, undivided, shows its subject free from insincerity, yet sure to fall into error, if he take action. (His action) will not be advantageous in any way.
