Maria - "To know the seeds (dots?), that's divine indeed." Your dots analogy also appears as 64 hexagrams.
Ros:The jade rings in the highest place show the firm and the yielding complementing each other properly... here it is seen from the standpoint of ... who bestows. ... the firmness of metal manifests itself here as the soft sheen of jade... halfway with the proper receptivity.

Close up of finger gesture:
Sometimes the Chinese were less subtle. Three Federal Reserve Bank of China notes depict Confucius allegedly making an obscene finger gesture while striking a typical pose with folded hands... The note is actually known as "The Vulgar Wiseman" by collectors.
Smith and Matravers say about this vignette:
«The “worthy” who appears on the note is making an obscene gesture…This has been widely interpreted as a patriotic gesture of the part of the Chinese engraver to show distaste for the Japanese occupiers of Northeast China.»

In the sixth line the POT almost disappears and the POLE become precious, the promise of everlasting strenght. But excessive promises are unreliable, strenght doesn't last for ever, 50.6 also passes.
Mike:... The mechanism that supports and gives strength for the cauldron to work it's magic. Janice earlier was saying that this line was potentially about "power of will". This could be it, the tool to keep the pot boiling....
How about something like:
50.6 - You have built a permanent oven to support the cauldron. It's going to be able to bubble away nicely on gas mark 3 and what is more it's going to be more difficult to tip it over now.

Hi Janice
The course was related to business improvement and personal empowerment within the workplace. It was a new exercise that my co-trainer brought into the course at the time. It had amazing results with how people saw themselves. It's funny how little things pop back in our head like that at the most opportune moments.

There is such a synergy of energy flowing in this forum. There's so much truth in the fact that we need other people to energize our outlook and find the best that's in it.
‘What do we need to know about making personal change real?’
Yi’s response was simply – 58 (no changing lines)
鉉 xuan4: bar for bronze tripod / pole / rod / bar / device for carrying a tripod
( . . .)
This POLE is the same 金鉉 jin1 xuan4, metal pole , bronze pole or golden pole that appears at the fifth line. While the rings or handles are two, like the EARS, the pole is single, like ... say the NOSE.
GUÀI: parted, to fork, certain; secret signs made with the fingers; archer's thimble. With radical water: to open a passage
plus some good humour from Luis and Dobro....OK plus some attempted humour from Luis and Dobro.
Luis is shocked.
The rest of us are giggling.
What a cool segue to 51!
I don't know if this has been posted before...here it is again if it has. Alan Watts talks of Taoism and the Caldron

So, what do you say WE start designing another more scientific or "natural" emblem for this H 50 than that ridiculous old "cultural" and "political", Imperial-Chinese artitfact "The Ting"? Any ideas you might have will be welcome.

Guy wants to set up a meth lab and gets a good cauldron
1. but first has to clean it thoroughly, with rests of soup you will not get a good meth conconction
2. then he cooks his stuff, and affects all his 'friends' and customers, but they are so stoned that they will not harm him
3. his business is prospering, he needs a helper but does not want to pay for one so he makes a girl believe he loves her and she is a great assistant
4. ut oh.. the police, everything overturned and he lands in prison
5. he thinks and thinks, time enough now and no worries about how to get a meal.. so he betters his ways and writes it all down
6. now he is praised as an example for all junks and also all young people for making clear to them what happens when you use your ting for a wrong kind of food
