Classical Interpretation
The taming power of the small (09) is minor.
The image
The wind drives across heaven: the image of the taming power of the small. Thus the superior man refines the outer appearance of his nature.
The judgement
The taming power of the small has success. Dense clouds, no rain from our western region.Full text of Richard Wilhelm's 1924 translation by Cary F. Baynes
