Work on the Decayed

The Judgment

蠱，元亨，利涉大川。先甲三日，後甲三日。

Work on the Decayed has supreme success. It furthers one to cross the great water. Three days before the turning point, three days after.

The Image

山下有風，蠱；君子以振民育德。

The wind blows low on the mountain: the image of Decay. Thus the superior person stirs up the people and strengthens their spirit.

In one line

Rot must be cut out deliberately, before and after the turning point.
