It doesn't matter! The intention, moment and symbols that are within are all that is needed. It all works!
It seems like I Ching is a language, and over time as you become fluent in it, you 'hear' it speaking to you all the time. so many times in conversations with ordinary people, I want to speak Yi....you know, say something like, "oh that is so 34" or "40!!!!" . Nothing can so uniquely and exquisitely grok a situation like the Yi language. a shame more people are not acquainted with it.
THE JUDGMENT
FELLOWSHIP WITH MEN in the open.
Success.
It furthers one to cross the great water.
The perseverance of the superior man furthers.
True fellowship among men must be based upon a concern that is universal. It is not the private interests of the individual that create lasting fellowship among men, but rather the goals of humanity. That is why it is said that fellowship with men in the open succeeds. If unity of this kind prevails, even difficult and dangerous tasks, such as crossing the great water, can be accomplished. However, in order to bring about this sort of fellowship, a persevering and enlightened leader is needed--a man with clear, convincing, and inspiring aims and the strength to carry them out. (The inner trigram means clarity; the outer, strength.)
THE IMAGE
Heaven together with fire:
The image of FELLOWSHIP WITH MEN.
Thus the superior man organizes the clans
And makes distinctions between things.
Heaven has the same direction of movement as fire, yet it is different from fire. Just as the luminaries in the sky serve for the systematic division and arrangement of time, so human society and all things that really belong together must be organically arranged. Fellowship should not be a mere mingling of individuals or of things--that would be chaos, not fellowship. If fellowship is to lead to order, there must be organization within diversity.
We know this is not easy, but it is time to speak out the truth. That is the only way we can improve on our study of I Ching for perfection.
That is why many times we tell them the hour, too. They are not so easy to believe like the Western people.
