Today's I Ching for Chris Elliott

The yarrow have been drawn....

	The present is embodied in Hexagram 48 - Ching (The Well): We think of how the site of a town may be changed, while the fashion of its wells undergoes no change. The water of a well never disappears but never receives any great increase, and those who come and those who go can draw and enjoy the benefit. If the drawing has nearly been accomplished, but before the rope has quite reached the water the bucket is broken, this is evil.
	The third line, undivided, shows a well, which has been cleared out, but is not used. Our hearts are sorry for this, for the water might be drawn out and used. If the king were only intelligent, both he and we might receive the benefit of it.
	The situation is evolving slowly, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 29 - K'an (Water): We see the possession of sincerity, through which the mind is penetrating. Action in accordance with this will be of high value.
	The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram K'an (Water), which represents danger and the unknown.
	The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Sun (Wind), which is transforming into K'an (Water). As part of this process, penetration and following are giving way to danger and the unknown.
