Temujin.ethWeekly I Ching - November 9 2025
SummaryThe reading for this week is favourable. Abundance comes naturally, and those who understand the responsibility that comes with it are best fitted to maintain it. Reach for your goals, trust the competency of friends, and enjoy this time of harmony. The I Ching specifically gives us the image of a wagon this week. My interpretation is thus: when preparing for a large task or journey, we must be ready to set out with the supplies needed to ensure success. The wagon can safely handle a h...
Temujin.ethWeekly I Ching - September 10 2023
PreambleA new dawn is here. Any turbulence or remnant darkness clears as the sun rises over the Earth, beginning a new day. This situation as described in the I Ching denotes a window of easy progress, coupled with widening clarity. It also is reminiscent of a strong, obedient individual in service of a wise ruler. It is under these conditions that great progress is made. This is a welcome change after a few weeks of cautionary readings from the Oracle. Go gently into the brightening day.Orac...
Temujin.ethWeekly I Ching - August 20 2023
PreambleWhen turbulence comes, there is often an instinctual response to tense up, and harden against whatever challenges us. There are times when this is helpful, and serves well. There are also situations where this is exactly the opposite of what’s best. The superior individual discerns this difference and instead relaxes, moving instead to dissolve divisions and negativity. This is one of those moments. Any coming adversity or challenge may tempt you toward aggressive, focused action. Do ...

It feels like the pressure is on, and just when we need to rise to the occasion, exhaustion sets in. This is fated for all of us from time to time; it cannot be avoided. The Book of Changes tells us that one who lets their spirit be broken by exhaustion certainly has no success.
Sometimes, all we can seek to do is to overcome a problem inwardly, in preparation to act outwardly at a more favourable time. Those who cultivate this inner approach to problem solving, without falling into melancholia or delusion about where the sense of oppression is coming from, separate themselves from others of weaker character.
1st: 5,4,8 > Stable Yin
2nd: 5,8,8 > Stable Yang
3rd: 9,8,8 > Changing Yin
4th: 9,8,4 > Stable Yang
5th: 9,8,4 > Stable Yang
6th: 9,4,4 > Stable Yin
The hexagram for this week is K’un, Oppression/Exhaustion.
Above: Tui, Lake
Below: K’an, Water
Oppression. Success. Perseverance. The great human brings about good fortune. No blame. When one has something to say, it is not believed.
This week, the Oracle gave specific guidance cautioning against seeking out adversity or oppressive circumstances that could be avoided if dealt with tactfully. Failing to do so is like “butting one’s head against a wall, and in consequence feeling oneself oppressed by the wall”.
The world has challenge and oppression enough without needing us to add to it. Those who choose to exist in this mindset will certainly be met with misfortune. Be mindful of this over the coming days, and know that the turbulence will dissipate as we move into September.
Blessings to you all.
