Hexagram 59, Huàn (Dispersion): Line 2
涣卦九二 · 风水涣 · 中文版
九二：涣奔其机，悔亡。
The line (Legge)
The second NINE, undivided, shows its subject, amid the dispersion, hurrying to his contrivance (for security). All occasion for repentance will disappear.
Small Image commentary
'Amidst the prevailing dispersion, he hurries to his contrivance (for security):' - he gets what he desires.
象曰：涣奔其机，得愿也。
In plain words
In dispersal, running to one's support: regret vanishes. The support is a low table to lean on, some say the first line. The second line is strong and central but caught in the danger of the lower trigram; finding something to lean on, it settles. The Small Image says it gets what it wished for.
Applying it to your situation
If things are unsettled, this line suggests first finding something stable to lean on. What is the "table" that could steady you now?
Position
A solid (yang) line in the second place, which is a yin (even) place, so it is not in its proper place. It holds the centre of the lower trigram. Its partner is line 5; both are yang, so they do not respond.
If this line moves
With this line moving alone, Huàn changes into Hexagram 20 Guān (Contemplation). The Jiaoshi Yilin verse for this change (Chinese): 焦氏易林·涣之观.
The hexagram
Hexagram 59 Huàn (Dispersion). The Judgment: Huan intimates that (under its conditions) there will be progress and success. The king goes to his ancestral temple; and it will be advantageous to cross the great stream. It will be advantageous to be firm and correct.
