Today's I Ching for George Armstrong Custer
The yarrow have been drawn....
| The present is embodied in Hexagram 18 - Ku (Decay): Great progress and success will come to him who deals properly with the situation. There will be advantage in efforts like that of crossing the great stream. Weigh well though, the events of three days before the turning point, and those to be done three days after it. | | The sixth line, undivided, shows us one who does not serve either king or feudal lord, but in a lofty spirit prefers to attend to his own affairs. | | The situation is evolving slowly, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground. |
| The future is embodied in Hexagram 46 - Sheng (Pushing Upward): There will be great progress and success. Seeking to meet with the great man, its subject need have no anxiety. Advance to the south will be fortunate. | | The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Ken (Mountain), which is transforming into K'un (Earth). As part of this process, stillness and obstruction are giving way to docility and receptivity. | | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Sun (Wind), which represents penetration and following. |
