The Love Oracle

Your current love situation

Your current situation can be depicted as "Innocence (The Unexpected)" transforming into "Difficulty at the Beginning".

In front of you lies "Heaven" which transforms into "Water". That means that strength and creativity are being transformed into danger and the unknown.
Behind you lies "Thunder", representing movement, initiative, and action.


The Situation

25. Wu Wang - Innocence (The Unexpected)
Above (in front): Ch'ien - The Creative (Heaven)
Below (behind): Chên - The Arousing (Thunder)




The Judgement for the Current Situation

Innocence. Supreme success.
Perseverance furthers.
If someone is not as he should be,
He has misfortune,
And it does not further him
To undertake something.


The Image for the Current Situation

Under heaven thunder rolls:
All things attain the natural state of innocence.
Thus the kings of old,
Rich in virtue, and in harmony with the time,
Fostered and nourished all beings.


Interpretation of the Changing Line(s)

Line 4: He who can be persevering
Remains without blame.

Line 6: Innocent action brings misfortune.
Nothing furthers.


The Future

3. Chun - Difficulty at the Beginning
Above (in front): K'an - The Abysmal (Water)
Below (behind): Chên - The Arousing (Thunder)


The Judgement for the Future

Difficulty at the Beginning works supreme success,
Furthering through perseverance.
Nothing should be undertaken.
It furthers one to appoint helpers.


The Image for the Future

Clouds and thunder:
The image of Difficulty at the Beginning.
Thus the superior man
Brings order out of confusion.
