Today's I Ching for Thomas Jefferson

The coins have been tossed...

	The present is embodied in Hexagram 7 - Shih (The Army): With firmness and correctness, and a leader of age and experience, there will be good fortune and no error.
	The first (bottommost) line, divided, shows the host going forth according to the rules for such a movement. If these be not good, there will be evil.
	The situation is evolving slowly, and Yang (the active masculine force) is gaining ground.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 19 - Lin (Approach): There will be great progress and success, while it will be advantageous to be firmly correct. In the eighth month there will be evil.
	The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram K'un (Earth), which represents docility and receptivity.
	The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram K'an (Water), which is transforming into Tui (Lake). As part of this process, danger and the unknown are giving way to joy, pleasure, and attraction.
