震 亨。震來虩虩。笑言啞啞。震驚百里。不喪匕鬯。

Shock brings success.  Shock comes--oh, oh! Laughing words--ha, ha!  The shock terrifies for a hundred miles, and he does not let fall the sacrificial spoon and chalice.

六三   6 in the 3rd

震蘇蘇。震行无眚。

Shock comes and makes one distraught.  If shock spurs to action one remains free of misfortune.

Shock is mired.

六五   6 in the 5th

震往來厲。意无喪有事。

Shock goes hither and thither.  Danger.  However, nothing at all is lost.  Yet there are things to be done.

上六   6 at the top

震索索。視矍矍。征凶。震不于其躬。于其鄰。无咎。婚媾有言。

Shock brings ruin and terrified gazing around.  Going ahead brings misfortune.  If it has not yet touched one's own body but has reached one's neighbor first, there is no blame.  One's comrades have something to talk about.
