Temujin.ethWeekly I Ching - August 27 2023
PreambleIt 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 m...

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...

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 ...

A 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.
1st: 9,8,8 > Changing Yin
2nd: 5,4,8 > Stable Yin
3rd: 5,8,4 > Stable Yin
4th: 5,4,4 > Changing Yang
5th: 5,4,8 > Stable Yin
6th: 9,4,8 > Stable Yang
The hexagram for this week is Chin, Progress.
Above: Li, Fire
Below: K’un, Earth
Progress. The powerful prince is honoured with horses in large numbers. In a single day he is granted audience three times.
There was some specific guidance around the first and fourth lines this week. This time, they seem to advise individuals in two very different contexts, which should not be confused.
The first are those of us who may be met with disbelief as we move along the path. If you are dismissed, do not try to win the confidence of those in the situation. Remain calm and cheerful, and persist in what is right. That way, we avoid making mistakes.
The second relates to those of us in positions of power (the 4th line). This is not a time for the strong to amass possessions via dubious process. Abusing any power at the expense of one’s peers surely brings danger.
Blessings to you all.
