Today's I Ching for Federico Fellini
The coins have been tossed...






| The present 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 fourth line, divided, shows its subject pursuing the due course. His advice to his prince is followed. He can with advantage be relied on in such a movement as that of removing the capital. | | The fifth line, undivided, shows its subject with sincere heart seeking to benefit all below. There need be no question about it, the result will be great good fortune. All below will, with sincere heart, acknowledge his goodness. | | In the sixth line, undivided, we see one to whose increase none will contribute, while many will seek to assail him. He observes no regular rule in the ordering of his heart. There will be evil. | | The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground. | 





| The future is embodied in Hexagram 51 - Chen (Shock): There is an intimation of ease and development. When the time of movement comes, the subject will be found looking out with apprehension, yet smiling and talking cheerfully. When the movement, like a crash of thunder, terrifies all within a hundred li, he will be like the sincere worshipper, who is not startled into letting go his ladle and cup of sacrificial spirits. |  | The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Sun (Wind), which is transforming into Chen (Thunder). As part of this process, penetration and following are giving way to movement, initiative, and action. |  | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Chen (Thunder), which represents movement, initiative, and action. |
