Innocence: supreme success. Perseverance furthers. If someone is not as he should be, he has misfortune, and it does not further him to undertake anything. Thunder moves beneath heaven in spring — the natural, the unpremeditated, action springing straight from original nature without calculation. Such innocence is guarded by heaven itself; but cunning disguised as spontaneity finds every road blocked.
Under heaven thunder rolls: all things attain the natural state of innocence. The kings of old, rich in virtue and in harmony with the time, fostered and nourished all beings. The wise cultivate what is natural in themselves and others, rather than engineering outcomes.
Act from your genuine nature now — the unforced impulse, the honest response, the thing you would do if no one were calculating — because this season rewards innocence and punishes scheming with uncanny precision. Expect the unexpected, too: this hexagram governs events that arrive out of the blue, and innocence is precisely the readiness that meets them well. If misfortune strikes without your fault, bear it without self-poisoning; undeserved trouble passes over the innocent like weather. Be real; heaven backs the real.
