Hexagram 60, Jié (Limitation): Line 3
节卦六三 · 水泽节 · 中文版
六三：不节若，则嗟若，无咎。
The line (Legge)
The third SIX, divided, shows its subject with no appearance of observing the (proper) regulations, in which case we shall see him lamenting. But there will be no one to blame (but himself).
Small Image commentary
In 'the lamentation for not observing the (proper) regulations,' who should there be to blame?
象曰：不节之嗟，又谁咎也。
In plain words
Without restraint, there will be sighing; but if one recognises it and regrets it, there is no fault. The third line is weak, neither central nor correct, at the top of the lower trigram of joy, and indulgent. The Small Image asks: sighing for lack of restraint, whom could one blame?
Applying it to your situation
If you regret not holding back, this line suggests the regret itself is the start of change. Where will you pause first next time?
Position
A broken (yin) line in the third place, which is a yang (odd) place, so it is not in its proper place. Its partner is line 6; both are yin, so they do not respond.
If this line moves
With this line moving alone, Jié changes into Hexagram 5 Xū (Waiting). The Jiaoshi Yilin verse for this change (Chinese): 焦氏易林·节之需.
The hexagram
Hexagram 60 Jié (Limitation). The Judgment: Jie intimates that (under its conditions) there will be progress and attainment. (But) if the regulations (which it prescribes) be severe and difficult, they cannot be permanent.
