Today's I Ching for H. G. Wells

The yarrow have been drawn....

	The present is embodied in Hexagram 35 - Chin (Progress): We see a prince who secures the tranquility of the people, and is presented on that account with numerous horses by the king. Three times in a day he is received at interviews.
	The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject with the appearance of advancing, but like a marmot. However firm and correct he may be, the position is one of peril.
	The topmost line, undivided, show one advancing his horns. But he only uses them to punish the rebellious people of his own city. The position is perilous, but there will be good fortune. Yet however firm and correct he may be, there will be occasion for regret.
	The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 2 - K'un (The Receptive): That which is great and originating, advantageous, correct and having the firmness of a mare. When the superior man must move, if he takes the initiative he will go astray. If he follows, he will find his proper lord. The advantage will be seen in his getting friends in the southwest, and losing friends in the northeast. If he rest in correctness and firmness, there will be good fortune.
	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 K'un (Earth), which represents docility and receptivity.
