Today's I Ching for Mikhail Gorbachev

The yarrow have been drawn....

	The present is embodied in Hexagram 58 - Tui (Joy): There will be progress and attainment, but it will be advantageous to be firm and correct.
	The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject deliberating about what to seek his pleasure in, and not at rest. He borders on what would be injurious, but there will be cause for joy.
	The situation is evolving slowly, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 60 - Chieh (Limitation): There will be progress and attainment, but if the regulations prescribed be severe and difficult, they cannot be permanent.
	The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Tui (Lake), which is transforming into K'an (Water). As part of this process, joy, pleasure, and attraction are giving way to danger and the unknown.
	The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Tui (Lake), which represents joy, pleasure, and attraction.
