I Ching: Hexagram 57 - The Lines, Part 4

Six in the fourth place means:
Remorse vanishes.
During the hunt
Three kinds of game are caught.


When a responsible position and accumulated experience lead one to combine innate modesty with energetic action, great success is assured. The three kinds of animals referred to served for offerings to the gods, for feasting guests, and for everyday consumption. When the catch answered all three purposes, the hunt was considered especially successful.
