变爻解读 Interpretation
解读层 / Interpretation layer: Dao Oracle reflective commentary, not direct classical quotation.
二爻变动，小人在闭塞时逢迎承顺可以得利，而大人则借否塞之时磨砺自身。变为天水讼卦，暗示闭塞中暗藏争端须以德应对。
The second line changing: petty people prosper by flattery during stagnation, while the great man uses standstill to temper himself. Transforming into Conflict suggests hidden disputes in stagnation that require virtue to manage.
