Today's I Ching for Kurt Vonnegut

The coins have been tossed...

	The present is embodied in Hexagram 8 - Pi (Union): There is good fortune, but let him reexamine himself. Let him divine whether his virtue be great, unremitting, and firm. If it be so, there will be no error. Those who have not rested will then come to him. With those who are too late in coming, it will be ill.
	The first (bottommost) line, divided, shows its subject seeking by his sincerity to win the attachment of his object. There will be no error. Let the breast be full of sincerity as an earthenware vessel is of its contents, and it will in the end bring other advantages.
	In the third line, divided, we see its subject seeking for union with such as ought not to be associated with.
	In the fourth line, divided, we see its subject seeking for union with the one beyond himself. With firm correctness there will be good fortune.
	The situation is shifting, and Yang (the active masculine force) is becoming much more powerful.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 49 - Ko (Revolution): What takes place is believed in only after it has been accomplished. There will be great progress and success. Advantage will come from being firm and correct. In that case, occasion for repentance will disappear.
	The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram K'an (Water), which is transforming into Tui (Lake). As part of this process, danger and the unknown are giving way to joy, pleasure, and attraction.
	The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram K'un (Earth), which is transforming into Li (Fire). As part of this process, docility and receptivity are giving way to brightness and warmth.
