Today's I Ching for Theodore Roosevelt
The yarrow have been drawn....






| The present is embodied in Hexagram 52 - Ken (Keeping Still): When one is resting, and he loses all consciousness of self; when he walks in his courtyard, and does not see any of the persons in it, there will be no error. | | The third line, undivided, shows its subject keeping his loins at rest, and separating the ribs from the body below. The situation is perilous, and the heart glows with suppressed excitement. | | The fourth line, divided, shows its subject keeping his trunk at rest. There will be no error. | | The sixth line, undivided, shows its subject devotedly maintaining his restfulness. There will be good fortune. | | The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground. | 





| The future is embodied in Hexagram 16 - Yu (Enthusiasm): In this state, feudal princes and other delegates may be set up, and the hosts put in motion, with advantage. |  | The things most apparent, those above and in front, are embodied by the upper trigram Ken (Mountain), which is transforming into Chen (Thunder). As part of this process, stillness and obstruction are giving way to movement, initiative, and action. |  | The things least apparent, those below and behind, are embodied by the lower trigram Ken (Mountain), which is transforming into K'un (Earth). As part of this process, stillness and obstruction are giving way to docility and receptivity. |
