Today's I Ching for George Bernard Shaw
The coins have been tossed...
| The present is embodied in Hexagram 28 - Ta Kuo (Preponderance of the Great): We see a beam that is weak. Under these conditions, there will be advantage in moving in any direction at all. There will be success. | | The second line, undivided, shows a decayed willow producing shoots, or an old husband in possession of his young wife. There will be advantage in every way. | | The fifth line, undivided, shows a decayed willow producing flowers, or an old wife in possession of her young husband. There will be occasion neither for blame nor for praise. | | The topmost line, divided, shows it subject with extraordinary boldness wading through a stream, till the water hides the crown of his head. There will be evil, but no ground for blame. | | The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground. |
| The future is embodied in Hexagram 56 - Lu (The Wanderer): There may be some little attainment and progress. If the stranger or traveler be firm and correct as he ought to be, there will be good fortune. | | The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Tui (Lake), which is transforming into Li (Fire). As part of this process, joy, pleasure, and attraction are giving way to brightness and warmth. | | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Sun (Wind), which is transforming into Ken (Mountain). As part of this process, penetration and following are giving way to stillness and obstruction. |
