Six in the fifth place is drawn on questions of selection, admission and judgment, where the querent is the one being approached rather than the one approaching. The advance of wisdom befitting a great ruler promises good fortune, and the commentary identifies the method as the due mean. The line is favourable, and its favour rests specifically on discrimination, on knowing which approaches to receive and how far to let them come.
Structurally a yielding line holds the fifth place, incorrect for an odd position but central in the upper trigram Kun, and it corresponds to the strong second line below whose independence the hexagram already endorsed. The practical reading follows from that pairing. Authority here does not overpower what comes toward it and does not need to, because its strength lies in assessment and in the capable parties it chooses to let close.
Querents drawing this line are usually being cautioned against two opposite errors at once. Admitting every approach dissipates the position, and refusing all of them isolates it. The due mean is neither, and the text credits the good fortune of this ruling seat to a person who keeps their judgment working while others are still arriving.
