Today's I Ching for Donald Rumsfeld

The yarrow have been drawn....

	The present 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 first (bottommost) line, undivided, shows its subject advancing in company with the subject of the second line. Through his firm correctness there will be good fortune.
	The second line, undivided, shows it subject advancing in company with the subject of the first line. There will be good fortune. Advancing will be in every way advantageous.
	The fourth line, divided, shows one advancing in the highest mode. There will be no error.
	The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 16 - Yu (Enthusiasm): In this state, feudal princes and other delegates may be set up, and the hosts put in motion, with advantage.
	The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram K'un (Earth), which is transforming into Chen (Thunder). As part of this process, docility and receptivity are giving way to movement, initiative, and action.
	The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Tui (Lake), which is transforming into K'un (Earth). As part of this process, joy, pleasure, and attraction are giving way to docility and receptivity.
