Today's I Ching for Charlie Chaplin
The coins have been tossed...
| 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 fifth line, undivided, shows its subject trusting in one who would injure him. The situation is perilous. | | The topmost line, divided, shows the pleasure of its subject in leading and attracting others. | | The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground. |
| The future is embodied in Hexagram 41 - Sun (Decrease): If there is sincerity in sacrifice, there will be great good fortune, freedom from error, firmness and correctness that can be maintained, and advantage in every movement that shall be made. In what shall this sincerity in the exercise of sacrifice be employed? | | The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Tui (Lake), which is transforming into Ken (Mountain). As part of this process, joy, pleasure, and attraction are giving way to stillness and obstruction. | | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Tui (Lake), which represents joy, pleasure, and attraction. |
