Today's I Ching for James Brown
The yarrow have been drawn....
| The present is embodied in Hexagram 39 - Chien (Obstruction): Advantage will be found in the southwest, and the contrary in the northeast. It will be advantageous to meet with the great man. With firmness and correctness, there will be good fortune. | | The fifth line, undivided, shows its subject struggling with the greatest difficulties, while friends are coming to help him. | | The topmost line, divided, shows its subject going forward, only to increase the difficulties, while his remaining stationary will be productive of great merit. There will be good fortune, and it will be advantageous to meet with the great man. | | The situation is shifting, but neither Yin (the passive feminine force) nor Yang (the active masculine force) is gaining ground. |
| The future 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 things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram K'an (Water), which is transforming into Ken (Mountain). As part of this process, danger and the unknown are giving way to stillness and obstruction. | | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Ken (Mountain), which represents stillness and obstruction. |
