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.

#30   Li Radiance; Omens Shine Bright —

Consider that the image of fire on the water in this Kua is a symbolic omen of your situation. The image of a clinging fire is representative of your courage and resolve. It is fire that clings to the heart and makes way for the new as it burns away obstacles that have kept you in bondage. Old belief systems and tired ingrained societal patterns are the fuel for the fire that is an illuminator; bringing forward the jewels of life that have been hiding, shadowed by the ego, and have obscured the correct pathway to the illumination the soul. 

Deconstruct your fears and doubts and trust intuition that is heartfelt without divisiveness and control. Be clear in your intent, be honest, without ego, judgment or ambition, and the disparate parts will easily come together.

You have so much right now—your riches in knowledge and spirit as a result of striving for inner truth will become part of you. You can clear obstacles and know your position in life's wonder by being humble in the context of possessing such vital knowledge and spiritual insight which is an incredibly powerful combination. 

Be calm and organize. There is a new archetypical pattern that awaits subtle, creative movements to insure success. Be considerate in the shifting of the model. An inconsiderate change at this time is dangerous. Rely on conventional wisdom.

In the recent past you were hiding behind a veil of non-recognition, where your words, feelings, and ideas were not fully heard or were dismissed out of hand. You were not being recognized for your gifts and good intentions and had not been appreciated for your insights and creativity. It has been frustrating, to say the least, to have been locked down, misunderstood, and held in irons in a multitude of ways. Lin brings good news: the time of bondage is over. 

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. 

Shi He comes now as a wakeup call. The obstacle is metaphorically in your mouth and you must bite through it. The time for action is now, while things are still ripe.  

It is the time.

Heaven and Earth are joining;

Intuition is your guiding light.

You are the leader of your quest.
