P'i / Standstill [Stagnation]

above: Ch'ien The Creative, Heaven
below: K'un The Receptive, Earth

The Judgement

Standstill. Evil people do not further
The perseverance of the superior man.
The great departs; the small approaches.

The Image

Heaven and earth do not unite:
The image of Standstill.
Thus the superior man falls back upon his inner worth
In order to escape the difficulties.
He does not permit himself to be honored with revenue.
