Today's I Ching for Kim Jong Il
The yarrow have been drawn....






| The present 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 first (bottommost) line, divided, shows the stranger mean and meanly occupied. It is thus that he brings on himself further calamity. | | The second line, divided, shows the stranger, occupying his lodging-house, carrying with him his means of livelihood, and provided with good and trusty servants. | | The third line, undivided, shows the stranger, burning his lodging-house, and having lost his servants. However firm and correct he try to be, he will be in peril. | | The fourth line, undivided, shows the traveller in a resting- place, having also the means of livelihood and the axe, but still saying, "I am not at ease in my mind". | | The sixth line, undivided, suggests the idea of a bird burning its nest. The stranger, thus represented, first laughs and then cries out. He has lost his ox-like docility too readily and easily. There will be evil. | | The situation is changing rapidly, and Yin (the passive feminine 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 Li (Fire), which is transforming into K'un (Earth). As part of this process, brightness and warmth are giving way to docility and receptivity. |  | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower 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. |
