Today's I Ching for Dick Cheney

The coins have been tossed...

	The present is embodied in Hexagram 2 - K'un (The Receptive): That which is great and originating, advantageous, correct and having the firmness of a mare. When the superior man must move, if he takes the initiative he will go astray. If he follows, he will find his proper lord. The advantage will be seen in his getting friends in the southwest, and losing friends in the northeast. If he rest in correctness and firmness, there will be good fortune.
	In the first (or lowest) line, divided, we see its subject treading on hoarfrost. The strong ice will come by and by.
	The fifth line, divided, shows the yellow lower garment. There will be great good fortune.
	The sixth line, divided, shows dragons fighting in the wild. Their blood is purple and yellow.
	The situation is shifting, and Yang (the active masculine force) is becoming much more powerful.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 42 - I (Increase): There will be advantage in every movement which shall be undertaken, and it will even be advantageous to cross the great stream.
	The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram K'un (Earth), which is transforming into Sun (Wind). As part of this process, docility and receptivity are giving way to penetration and following.
	The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram K'un (Earth), which is transforming into Chen (Thunder). As part of this process, docility and receptivity are giving way to movement, initiative, and action.
