Hexagram 35, Jìn (Progress): Line 5
晋卦六五 · 火地晋 · 中文版
六五：悔亡，失得勿恤，往吉无不利。
The line (Legge)
The fifth SIX, divided, shows how all occasion for repentance disappears (from its subject). (But) let him not concern himself about whether he shall fail or succeed. To advance will be fortunate, and in every way advantageous.
Small Image commentary
'Let him not concern himself whether he fails or succeeds:' - his movement in advance will afford ground for congratulation.
象曰：失得勿恤，往有庆也。
In plain words
Regret vanishes; do not worry about loss or gain; going on brings good fortune, and nothing is unfavourable. The fifth line is yielding in the place of honour, the ruler of the upper trigram of brightness: light is above, and those below follow. The Small Image says going on brings celebration.
Applying it to your situation
If you keep worrying about gains and losses, this line suggests letting that go and moving forward wholeheartedly. If you stopped weighing loss and gain, what would you do?
Position
A broken (yin) line in the fifth place, which is a yang (odd) place, so it is not in its proper place. It holds the centre of the upper trigram. Its partner is line 2; both are yin, so they do not respond.
If this line moves
With this line moving alone, Jìn changes into Hexagram 12 Pǐ (Standstill). The Jiaoshi Yilin verse for this change (Chinese): 焦氏易林·晋之否.
The hexagram
Hexagram 35 Jìn (Progress). The Judgment: In Jin we see a prince who secures the tranquillity (of the people) presented on that account with numerous horses (by the king), and three times in a day received at interviews.
