I Ching reading: Huan (Dispersion) changing to Kan (The Abyss)
Huan: Nine at the top
Dispersing the blood. It is gone, far away, and out. No blame.
渙其血,去逖出,无咎。
平Neutral
Reading
Neither good nor bad. It depends on how you act.People's hearts, or the situation, have scattered and need to be drawn together again.
Governing text · Huan: Nine at the top
In plain wordsLet harm go far away, let worry and fear depart, and get well away from the scattering situation. No blame.
- Now
- Wind blows across the water and it disperses. What is scattering may be people's hearts, or it may be a knot inside your own.
- The key
- Only one line is changing: Nine at the top. The answer is in that line. Neither good nor bad. Do your part, correct mistakes, and nothing will go wrong.
- Where it is heading
- Things are moving toward Kan (The Abyss): One danger after another. This is a truly hard time.
- What to do
- Find what can bring everyone back together: a shared belief or goal. Let go of self-interest and small cliques. Dissolving the knot inside you is itself a good thing. The big hurdle can be crossed.
