### **Preamble**

Sometimes an obstacle is best overcome by decisive force. This applies especially so in matters concerning crime and criminal behaviour, as harmony needs justice in order to be attainable.

Today’s hexagram presents us with themes of Justice, punishment, and its delivery upon those who are culprits. Unresolved affairs and old grievances may come to light this week, and those who serve justice may be unfavourably viewed for “resurfacing” what happened long ago. The Oracle states that even though it may result in humiliation or disapproval, just punishment is required by the time, and thus does not invite blame.

### **Oracle outputs**

    1st: T,T,H > Stable Yang
    2nd: H,T,H > Stable Yin
    3rd: T,T,T > Changing Yin
    4th: T,H,T > Stable Yang
    5th: H,T,H > Stable Yin
    6th: T,H,T > Stable Yang
