Analysis
The primary hexagram has two Earth lines (Chen and Xu) — Wife/Wealth in abundance, mutually producing the Subject line. Wife/Wealth moving brings out Wei Earth; the two Wife/Wealth lines mutually produce and combine with the Subject line, and are further supported by day and month-stems. Not only will the couple live to old age, but there will be many concubines as well.
Actual outcome
This man had more than 10 concubines; the chief wife was virtuous and never jealous, and he lived past 80.
