Hexagram 62, Xiǎo Guò (Small Exceeding): Line 1
小过卦初六 · 雷山小过 · 中文版
初六：飞鸟以凶。
The line (Legge)
The first SIX, divided, suggests (the idea of) a bird flying, (and ascending) till the issue is evil.
Small Image commentary
'There is a bird flying (and ascending) till the result is evil:' - nothing can be done to avoid this issue.
象曰：飞鸟以凶，不可如何也。
In plain words
The flying bird meets misfortune by flying. The hexagram is shaped like a flying bird, and its judgment says it is not right to go up but right to go down; the first line is weak and low yet restlessly flies upward. The Small Image says nothing can be done about it.
Applying it to your situation
If you want to push upward at the wrong time, this line suggests staying low. Could putting down roots now be safer than flying up?
Position
A broken (yin) line in the first place, which is a yang (odd) place, so it is not in its proper place. Its partner is line 4; one is yin and the other yang, so they respond to each other.
If this line moves
With this line moving alone, Xiǎo Guò changes into Hexagram 55 Fēng (Abundance). The Jiaoshi Yilin verse for this change (Chinese): 焦氏易林·小过之丰.
The hexagram
Hexagram 62 Xiǎo Guò (Small Exceeding). The Judgment: Xiao Guo indicates that (in the circumstances which it implies) there will be progress and attainment. But it will be advantageous to be firm and correct. (What the name denotes) may be done in small affairs, but not in great affairs. (It is like) the notes that come down from a bird on the wing - to descend is better than to ascend. There will (in this way) be great good fortune.
