I Ching Reading 4 Hexagram No 47 Oppression on 7.8.20 "Divining the Chaos"






I Ching Reading No 47 Oppression on 7.8.20 "Divining the Chaos"

 Theme

The Tao tells us in this reading that nourishment and care must be adhered to for ourselves and others.

Reading of the I Ching Chinese Book of Change by Gerard Menzel


Hexagram 47 Oppression



This is No 3 in a the series plotting the path of our world struggling under the pandemic Covid 19.

The Book gives us answers ti the tasks ahead in order to balance movement and stillness, action inaction, via the forces of Yin and Yang.

 In this Hexagram Oppression in the book talks about surrender, how society is in chaos, the need for correct though and stillness, spiritual practice. One must contain our Chi energy and not exhaust it in the outside chaos.  It is not time to take control. Correct timing. If you like the readings you can show your appreciation at the contribution tag above right.

I hope this reading is helpful in some small way.

I you would like to know more about the I Ching book I suggest these authors.
