This morning by consulting the I Ching I have changed the future.
The consultation speaks of “revolution” and later a circumstance reaching a critical tension.
REVOLUTION.
On your own day
You are believed.
Supreme success,
Furthering through perseverance.
Remorse disappears.
And
Fire in the lake: the image of REVOLUTION.
And
When one’s own day comes, one may create revolution.
It suggests that the universe, when the time is right, will allow a major upheaval and change.
Later we have:
“It is an exceptional time and situation; therefore extraordinary measures are demanded. It is necessary to find a way of transition as quickly as possible, and to take action.”
I am reading the consultation as a kind of Carte Blanche for when the time is right. After I have tried every other means do not fear letting rip, big time. But remember the six Ps. Preparation and Planning Prevent Piss Poor Performance.
One obvious possible application is a house / country move.
It furthers one to have somewhere to go.
Success.
And
Thus the superior man, when he stands alone,
Is unconcerned,
And if he has to renounce the world,
He is undaunted.
When I got this reading this morning, I went round the house making lip blowing noises, because it seems to me that a whole bunch more is on the cards for my next mundane year.
It is unlikely that many people with my kind of educational {science} background would look at this “oracle” or “prophecy” and attach any significance. They might read it but with as much belief as a tabloid newspaper horoscope. But if they did read it and pooh-pooh it, it has already changed their future. The mere act of reading it altered the course of events. And now there is something, perhaps trivial, in their subconscious. Which could rear its head at any time.
As I said above, I am taking this that I have some kind of Carte Blanche, to act. My perception of and my interaction with the future have changed.
To my eyes this consultation is not just about the house move but refers to many other possible situations as well.
The ridgepole sags to the breaking point.
It furthers one to have somewhere to go.
Success.
The weight of the great is excessive. The load is too heavy for the strength of the supports. The ridgepole on which the whole roof rests, sags to the breaking point, because its supporting ends are too weak for the load they bear.
May refer to the cost of living crisis, energy and food insecurity, or more global warming:
Extraordinary times when the great preponderates are like flood times when the lake rises over the treetops.
We shall see…
