The Weekly I Ching

A multitude of situations and challenges have come into view in a cacophony of movement, thoughts and very deep emotions.  It is all happening in a great concert of revealing you to you and to your truth. You will benefit from holding still and access each situation separate from the whole. The difficulty is that this entire flood of energy is interconnected. Some aspects will require down and out war, while loving will salve others and the remaining will transform on their own into the creative when you get your ego out of the way in wanting it or someone to change for the better. Trust your wisdom, not your knowledge.

A seed you planted in the past, and have almost forgotten, has sprouted. As it rises from the depth of soul memory it comes to you now with laced with excitement and passion. Do not become turned off in that along with it is some confusion, this confusion is wrought only from surprise. Like many new ventures the way forward is not showing in clarity, you cannot yet see it, but you can feel it. It is this lack of clear vision that is causing some confusion as to how to move forward and what or who to let go of and decide what will stay to be nurtured and protected in this cycle of new growth. Do not let your emotions take you off track. Muster all your energies and call on your hidden strengths, they are there and will be accessed through using and trusting your intuition.

When a wound has become infected it will not heal unless the poison is removed. This is your condition now. You have been in battle and now you are returning. A bit battered and deeply tired but you are returning and are mostly in tact.  It is your ego that has taken the hits and is feeling the wounding. The ego would have you retreat and be with shame…don’t go for it….there is no shame and no blame, you are human after all and this is part of the process to wholeness and light.

There is a great task ahead Join together in community with love and humility Where are you living? What are you doing? What are your relationships? Are you in the right relation? Where is your Water?  These are the questions tribal elders would ask you at this point in your journey to coming home to the true self that is authentic and real, free of doubt and shame. Look to what you have gained and accomplished and come to ritual where you, without giving quarter to anything or anyone, deconstruct what got you here alive, inspired and engaged. 

The ideas, processes and behaviors that have previously brought you success on the path to abundance, peace of mind and love are no longer valid, they have become obstacles. The small bits of darkness that in the past you ignored, and thought would go away, have grown and can now overshadow all unless you take swift action and again return to the light. It was seeming in many ways that things were getting easy and you didn’t have to work quite so hard as you did before. This is the trick of the ego, the shadow side of human existence, to take you off center.

As we, the tribes of earth peoples, make ready for the coming New Earth the movement you are sensing is that we are all riding the wave of eternal transformation The gifts of body, mind and spirit that you have withheld from yourself, tribe and family are now ready to be released; released into new ways of thinking and being. You have, with conscious and unconscious intent been waiting for just the right time or hoping there would be a right time, tribe of fellows and place of safety to express what has been building up inside you. The fear of rejection now does not matter. It is not about how or by who you will be received. Reception lies in spirit, not in your tribe, family or relationship. By moving forward without self-judgment you will be embraced, and in this embrace is the love, peace of mind and abundance you have desired. Reflect for a moment and see that through doubt and suffering you now deserve it.  

You are now approaching a new and favorable cycle where diligence will show up on the positive side of the ledger. You are crossing-This is an exciting time for it is from here you can see across the shore all that waits for you. That which you have been working for, dreamed and kept in your heart is in view, you can feel it. This is good.  The knowing of your progress is in place as are you. The challenge is not to let your ego push you too fast or too far in these delicate moments before realizing your goals in love, business, emotions and spirit.

Trust your wisdom, not your knowledge.

The truth in your situation is hidden; and it is this truth that will remove the very real obstacles that are in your way and set you free. These obstacles are the attitudes and patterns that you or those around you have adopted; they have created a curtain between you and the truth of the situation. When we seek the power of truth, it must be understood that this cannot be done with aggression or harsh words. Instead, we must proceed like the gentle wind, penetrating slowly and persistently.

#5  Xu  Attending You have made the approach Toward manifestation. Now, waiting with patience is key to the formula Success will come as you nourish that which needs attention. Look to your spirit and transform yourself into a great cat in the wild, crouching, waiting for the opportune time to make your move. Whilst waiting look to the things you have developed as if they were your clowder being sure to protect them and not to ignore them. See to the needs of your projects, relationships, tribe and family and keep them close and well looked after, well nourished.

The heat you are feeling is coming from deep in your consciousness.  This heat is generated when true initiation is near. And as Ding is called, you are told in no uncertain terms that you have done well, and you have a grand opportunity before you: the opportunity to make the alchemical mix of love, spirit and fate into the elixir that, when used judiciously, will guide you to the gates of your solitude where, behind those gates, lies peace of mind, success and abundance in all things.

Power to the PEOPLE! Bring your legions together Alone you will survive Move together and you will prosper. What lies ahead in your situation is nothing less than great. It will require great risk to achieve even moderate gains. Not that your gain is restricted in any way; it is quite the opposite, in fact. The field is wide open, the potential is greater than great. The access to your fulfillment of desires is risk.

The laws of nature are taking place; Observe. The earth is shifting below your feet; Stay balanced. Something you have built or cherished seems to be splitting apart. It is not that the project, situation, or relationship should be abandoned; rather, it is that you should keep still and take no outward action as the current change unfolds.  

Setting boundaries is of utmost importance at this time. Your primal self that feeds the soul needs boundaries in order to operate in the most efficient, loving, and healthful way. Without clear boundaries, all you know and love can fall into chaos, and all you have worked and cared for will hit the proverbial fan.  

There is opportunity rising. The opportunity of retrieving a beautiful aspect of self that has been let in the shadows. Hidden from view as you strove ahead to abundance and advancement. You have been in the action and attitude of giving. Giving love, advice to benefit your family, tribe and relationships. Now the benefit is to prepare your self to receive. To clear the way that has gotten musty and cluttered with ego, personality and greed for more. You have not been wrong in these very human actions, but now the great cleanse is called for where you have the opportunity to clear the way so you way proceed on the road before you to commence on the journey to the road less travelled. It is on that road where the removing of old ways and no longer useful patterns that have held you in the prison of shame and doubt this clearing or cleansing is to leave room for the returning and for refreshment of all that is good in this coming cycle of retrieval and creation. 

The ritual table of initiation is set and is waiting for you to be the guest as well as the host. As you nourish yourself, so are you to nourish all around you. The architecture of this hexagram is an open mouth. It is symbolic of hunger for knowledge of the self. This is a time of receiving, that is certain, but just what to receive and how much is the question answered in this hexagram. 

In your present situation there are areas of disharmony in health, commerce, love or on your path to oneness with the divine. Wherever you are being challenged you are in a positive flow and you must make these corrections. Procrastination at this juncture is ill-advised. Your truth lies in practicality and reality. 

These times denote clearly the obvious differentiation of light and dark. Know this and contain your light. Continue to develop but not in the open.  These are times of difficulties where you are confronted with danger or obstacles on the path. It would be useless to confront these negative forces. Stay chill and let it seem that you don’t notice their divisiveness as they strike out or try to stop you; just hold steady with the knowledge that this time of hardships will bring knowledge and creativity that will serve you well when it is the appropriate time to step out of the shadows into the light.     

What lies ahead in your situation is nothing less than great. It will require great risk to achieve even moderate gains. Not that your gain is restricted in any way; it is quite the opposite, in fact. The field is wide open, the potential is greater than great. The access to your fulfillment of desires is risk.
