Didn't meet it, or didn't catch it!

The birds have passed and returned empty-handed.

I was nervous and excited for nothing.

There will be various risks when you go out to do things, so you must protect yourself and take precautions. Don’t be self-righteous or take it lightly!

Danger will appear in an instant!)
It's like dark clouds are gathering and a thunderstorm is coming!

You are in the middle of things, things are happening, and the outcome is not yet clear!

Hunters take arrows and shoot the ferocious beasts in the cave!

Now that we have encountered a ferocious beast, we have decided to take action!
You must protect yourself, then do it!)
Even if you encounter danger unexpectedly, there is no fault!

But if you decide to take action, be careful!

Never take it lightly or be careless!

For example, when you are in the mountains, forests or wilderness, there are always risks of accidents, which are determined by your location.

Since you encounter dangerous animals or things, you must be on strict alert, otherwise you will be in danger sooner or later!)
For those who hunt in the mountains, if they feel that a big beast is about to appear, they must take precautions!

If you are well prepared, you can follow it and capture it based on clues!

This is a dangerous thing! Now that you have decided to capture it, you must foresee the possible dangers!)
I have never seen my grandfather since I was born, but I am lucky to have the love of my grandmother!

I didn't get an audience with the emperor, but I was lucky enough to meet the minister. There is hope and there is no fault.

As the old saying goes: If you are not lucky enough to be summoned by the emperor, ministers should not miss it and strive for their trust and help!

Do everything possible to contact everyone who can help!)
Birds screamed and flew by, and many small animals ran past in fear and panic!

It feels dangerous! But don't know what it is.)

Hexagra Sequence

Hexagram Note:
Small Exceeding: Signifies minor excess or overindulgence. It advises exercising moderation, avoiding extremes, and maintaining balance in all aspects of life to prevent potential pitfalls.

Hexagram Xiǎo Guò – Thunder over Mountain (Zhèn above, Gèn below)

Zhèn above, Gèn below

Xiǎo Guò (Judgment)

Xiǎo Guò:
Success.
Favorable is steadfastness.
Small matters may be undertaken; great matters may not.
A bird leaves its cry behind.
It is not suitable to ascend, but suitable to descend—great fortune.

Tuàn Commentary (Commentary on the Judgment)

“Xiǎo Guò — Small Exceeding.
‘Small’ means excess in a minor way, yet it brings success.
Exceeding with steadfastness aligns with the times.
The yielding attains the center, therefore small matters are auspicious.

The firm, if it loses its proper position and does not align,
cannot undertake great matters.

There is the image of a flying bird leaving its cry behind.
It is not suitable to ascend, but suitable to descend—great fortune.
Ascending against and descending with brings this result.”

Xiàng Commentary (Commentary on the Image)

“Thunder over the Mountain—this is Xiǎo Guò.
The noble person, in action, exercises caution in propriety,
mourns excess with grief,
and applies frugality in action.”
