Line statement
六三

The army may carry corpses in its wagons. Misfortune.

Computed position
How this place works
- Trigram position
- inner · boundary
Line 3 is the boundary of the inner trigram.
- Polarity and place
- yin in an odd place: not aligned
Its yin polarity does not match the traditional odd-place convention.
- Correspondence
- Line 6: same polarity
Its counterpart is Line 6; the two share a polarity, so this structural correspondence is not responsive.
