Today's I Ching for Leon Trotsky

The coins have been tossed...

	The present is embodied in Hexagram 33 - Tun (Retreat): Successful progress is indicated, but to a small extent it will still be advantageous to be firm and correct.
	The second line, divided, shows its subject holding his purpose fast, as if by a thong made from the hide of a yellow ox, which cannot be broken.
	The situation is evolving slowly, and Yang (the active masculine force) is gaining ground.
	The future is embodied in Hexagram 44 - Kou (Coming to Meet): We see a female who is bold and strong. It will not be good to marry such a female.
	The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Chi'en (Heaven), which represents strength and creativity.
	The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Ken (Mountain), which is transforming into Sun (Wind). As part of this process, stillness and obstruction are giving way to penetration and following.
