Today's I Ching for Leonardo da Vinci
The yarrow have been drawn....






| The present is embodied in Hexagram 52 - Ken (Keeping Still): When one is resting, and he loses all consciousness of self; when he walks in his courtyard, and does not see any of the persons in it, there will be no error. | | The first (bottommost) line, divided, shows its subject keeping his toes at rest. There will be no error, but it will be advantageous for him to be persistently firm and correct. | | The third line, undivided, shows its subject keeping his loins at rest, and separating the ribs from the body below. The situation is perilous, and the heart glows with suppressed excitement. | | The fourth line, divided, shows its subject keeping his trunk at rest. There will be no error. | | The fifth line, divided, shows its subject keeping his jawbones at rest, so that his words are all orderly. Occasion for repentance will disappear. | | The sixth line, undivided, shows its subject devotedly maintaining his restfulness. There will be good fortune. | | The situation is changing rapidly, and Yang (the active masculine force) is gaining ground. | 





| The future is embodied in Hexagram 17 - Sui (Following): There will be great progress and success, but one must be firm and correct. There will then be no error. |  | The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Ken (Mountain), which is transforming into Tui (Lake). As part of this process, stillness and obstruction are giving way to joy, pleasure, and attraction. |  | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Ken (Mountain), which is transforming into Chen (Thunder). As part of this process, stillness and obstruction are giving way to movement, initiative, and action. |
