2:46䷽ 62-小過卦【雷山小過】 小過,亨,利貞。可小事,不可大事。飛鳥遺之音,不宜上,宜下。大吉。 初六,飛鳥以凶。 六二,過其祖,遇其妣,不及其君,遇其臣,无咎。 九三,弗過防之,從或戕之,凶。 九四,无咎,弗過遇之,往厲必戒,勿用永貞。 六五,密雲不雨,自我西郊,公弋取彼在穴。 上六,弗遇過之,飛鳥離之,凶,是謂災眚。 《彖傳》:小過,小者過而亨也,過以利貞,與時行也。 柔得中,是以小事吉也;剛失位而不中,是以不可大事也。 有飛鳥之象焉,飛鳥遺之音,不宜上,宜下,大吉,上逆而下順也。 《象傳》:山上有雷,小過。君子以行過乎恭,喪過乎哀,用過乎儉。 《序卦傳》:有其信者必行之,故受之以小過。 《雜卦傳》:小過,過也。 Hexagram 62-Weakness(Hsiao Kuo)【Thunder Mountain Hsiao Kuo】 Hsiao Kuo, favorable, advantageous to be correct and firm.
