Hexagram 63 — 既济 (Jì Jì), After Completion
Above: ☵ 坎 Water Below: ☲ 离 Fire
The Judgment
亨小，利贞。初吉终乱。
After completion — everything is in place, but order decays if unwatched: good beginnings demand vigilant endings.
The Image (Daxiang)
「水在火上，既济；君子以思患而豫防之。」Water above fire — the noble person thinks of harm and prevents it in advance.—— 《周易·大象传》（The Image Commentary）
The Tuan Commentary
彖曰：既济亨，小者亨也。利贞，刚柔正而位当也。初吉，柔得中也；终止则乱，其道穷也。——《易传·彖传》

In Plain Terms
Done — but vigilance now decides how it ends. When you receive this hexagram, hold the judgment beside your question: it describes a posture and a season, not a script.
