Line statement
九三
伏戎于莽，升其高陵，三歲不興。
Armed troops hide in the thicket and climb the high mound. For three years they do not rise.
Hidden troops and the high lookout occupy Line 3, at the top of the inner fire trigram. Changing this firm line to yielding makes the lower trigram thunder and gives Hexagram 25.

Line 3 is the boundary of the inner trigram.
- Polarity and place
- yang in an odd place: aligned
Its yang polarity matches 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.
