Hexagram 13 · Line 2

Fellowship二九

Tong Ren · Er Jiu

二九 · Er Jiu

The Line

Fellowship with people in the clan: humiliation.

Interpretation

Here is the danger of a special party based on personal and selfish interests. Such partisanships, which are exclusive and have no room for all, which must condemn a portion of people in order to gather the rest, arise from low motives and therefore lead in the long run to humiliation.
