Today's I Ching for John Von Neumann

The coins have been tossed...

	The present is embodied in Hexagram 63 - Chi Chi (After Completion): We see progress and success in small matters. There will be advantage in being firm and correct. There has been good fortune in the beginning, but there may be disorder in the end.
	The first (bottommost) line, undivided, shows its subject as a driver who drags back his wheel, or as a fox which has wet his tail. There will be no error.
	The third line, undivided, suggests the case of Kao Tsung who attacked the Demon region, but was three years in subduing it. Small men should not be employed in such enterprises.
	The fourth line, divided, shows its subject with rags provided against any leak in his boat, and on his guard all day long.
	The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 45 - Ts'ui (Gathering Together): The king will repair to his ancestral temple. It will be advantageous to meet with the great man. Then there will be progress and success, though the advantage must come through firm correctness. The use of great victims will be conducive to good fortune, and in whatever direction movement is made, it will be advantageous.
	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 Li (Fire), which is transforming into K'un (Earth). As part of this process, brightness and warmth are giving way to docility and receptivity.
