The present is embodied in Hexagram 50 - Ting (The Caldron): There is an intimation of great progress and success. The second line, undivided, shows the cauldron with things to be cooked in it. If its subject can say, "My enemy dislikes me, but he cannot approach me", there will be good fortune. The fourth line, undivided, shows the cauldron with its feet broken; and its contents, designed for the ruler's use, overturned and spilt. Its subject will be made to blush for shame. There will be evil. The fifth line, divided, shows the cauldron with yellow ears and rings of metal in them. There will be advantage through being firm and correct. The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground. The future is embodied in Hexagram 53 - Chien (Gradual Progress): We see the marriage of a young lady, and the good fortune attending it. There will be advantage in being firm and correct. The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Li (Fire), which is tansforming into Sun (Wind). As part of this process, brightness and warmth are giving way to penetration and following. The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Sun (Wind), which is transforming into Ken (Mountain). As part of this process, penetration and following are giving way to stillness and obstruction. ------------------------------------------------- What drugs are you currently on?
