I Ching: Hexagram 48 - The Lines, Part 1

Six at the beginning means:
One does not drink the mud of the well.
No animals come to an old well.


If a man wanders around in swampy lowlands, his life is submerged in mud. Such a man loses all significance for mankind. He who throws himself away is no longer sought out by others. In the end no one troubles about him any more.
