巽为风
顺势而为，谦逊深入
The Judgment
The Gentle: success in small measure. It is favorable to have a goal to move toward, and favorable to see the great man.
The penetrating gentleness of wind, humble and yielding, brings modest success. There is benefit in having a purpose to pursue and in seeking out a person of great stature.
随风，巽。君子以申命行事。
重巽以申命，刚巽乎中正而志行，柔皆顺乎刚，是以小亨，利有攸往，利见大人。
Interpretation(original text)
巽者，入也、顺也，风之象也。上巽下巽，重风相继，无孔不入，柔顺而渗透。《说卦》云「巽为风、为木、为长女」，风行天下而无所不至，以柔顺之德深入人心。程颐谓「巽，入也，一阴伏于二阳之下而承顺之」。
上下皆巽，风行相继，随风而入，无微不至。一阴伏于二阳之下，阴柔潜行而不争先。王弼注「两巽相重，申命行事」，政令如风反复申明方能深入。虞翻以巽为进退不果、为近利市三倍，示巽入之道在于柔而有方。
九五为卦主，阳刚中正居尊，先庚三日、后庚三日，慎始善终。初六阴柔居下，进退不果，利武人之贞，以决断补柔顺之不足。九二刚中居下卦之中，「巽在床下」，用史巫纷若，以过谦为戒。上九居巽之极，「巽在床下」丧其资斧，凶。
巽为第五十七卦，与兑（第五十八卦）相综。《序卦》曰「旅而无所容，故受之以巽，巽者入也」。旅途失所则需柔顺以入。朱熹谓巽兑相综，巽入兑悦，一柔一刚，入而后悦。
The Lines
Wavering between advance and retreat. The steadfastness of a resolute man is what furthers here.
Caught between going forward and drawing back, one benefits from the firm, decisive constancy of a warrior.
Image: 进退，志疑也；利武人之贞，志治也。
初六阴柔居巽之始，柔顺过甚而进退不决。「进退」，犹豫不定。「利武人之贞」，需以武人刚决之德补其柔弱。程颐注「柔巽在下，恐其过巽」，此爻示柔顺需有节制，过柔则失其立身之道。
Gentle submission reaching beneath the bed. Making abundant use of scribes and shamans in sincere prayer brings good fortune and no blame.
Humbling oneself even to beneath the bed, and calling with wholehearted devotion on the intercessors, brings fortune and no fault.
Image: 纷若之吉，得中也。
九二阳刚居中，处下卦之中位。「巽在床下」，过于谦卑，屈身于下。「用史巫纷若」，多方祈祷沟通，吉而无咎。此爻刚中而能下人，以诚敬之心行柔顺之道。朱熹谓「过于卑巽」，虽过而以中正济之。
Forced and repeated submission. Humiliation.
Yielding over and over against one's grain earns only contempt and cause for regret.
Image: 频巽之吝，志穷也。
九三阳居阳位，处下卦之极，刚而过亢。「频巽」，频繁地巽顺，有勉强不自然之象，吝。此爻以刚居刚而在卦之交际，反复巽顺则失真。王弼注「刚而不中」，示巽顺当出于真诚，频巽则惹人厌。
Regret fades. In the hunt, game of three kinds is taken. Good fortune.
Doubt dissolves and effort is richly rewarded, like a hunt that bags three sorts of quarry; auspicious.
Image: 田获三品，有功也。
六四阴柔居上卦之初，得正位。「悔亡」，本有之悔已消。「田获三品」，如田猎所获丰盛。此爻柔顺得位，近于君位（九五），能以柔顺事君而成功。程颐谓「柔巽得正」，巽德之善者。
Perseverance brings good fortune, regret fades, and nothing is without advantage. There is no auspicious start, but a good end. Take care three days before the turning-point and three days after. Good fortune.
Holding firm is fortunate and clears away regret; nothing fails to prosper. The matter begins poorly but ends well, and careful conduct in the days just before and after the change secures good fortune.
Image: 贞吉悔亡，位正中也。
九五阳刚中正居尊位，巽卦之主。「贞吉，悔亡」，守正则吉。「无初有终」，事虽无善始而有善终。「先庚三日，后庚三日」，庚为变更，行事前后皆须审慎。朱熹注「刚健中正」，以巽行令当反复申明。
Gentle submission reaching beneath the bed. He loses his goods and his ax. Even perseverance brings misfortune.
Bowing so low as to grovel beneath the bed, he forfeits his means and his very instrument of action; even steadfastness now ends in misfortune.
Image: 巽在床下，上穷也；丧其资斧，正乎凶也。
上九阳居巽之极，巽顺太过而失其资。「巽在床下」，屈居最低。「丧其资斧」，丧失立身之本与决断之器，贞凶。此爻示巽顺过极则反受其害，虞翻谓「穷巽在极」，巽道穷尽，失刚失柔，凶。
