Today's I Ching for Barack Obama
The yarrow have been drawn....
| The present is embodied in Hexagram 15 - Ch'ien (Modesty): There is progress and success. The superior man, being humble, will have a good issue to his undertakings. | | The third line, undivided, shows the superior man of acknowledged merit. He will maintain his success to the end, and have good fortune. | | The situation is evolving slowly, 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 K'un (Earth), which represents docility and receptivity. | | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower 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. |
