I'm still experiencing a little conflict with 26 in like do we have what we need or not ?
Bruce says we have the power stored there like in an engine but we expend it a controlled intelligent way - yes so we have the power/capacity in us. Yes but if we have it in us why do we have to go out to get it ? Bruce and you seem to be saying opposite things to me - Bruce has his food in his house/engine, you have to go out to get it. Oh but then later in your post you say the food is there within you ? (so why you have to go out )
Since it is a yes/no question; I would use wen wang gua method... so.. what would I do? it depends on the day and month when that happens'do I need to pump gas now?'
The Yi says 26, no changing lines.
What will you do?
Let's have a poll.
Suppose you are driving (all the way up to ..) and you see a petrol station along the (long winding) road.
You have no idea how far it is till the top of Clarity Hill and you don't know if there are more stations further on, so you ask the Yi 'do I need to pump gas now?'
The Yi says 26, no changing lines.
What will you do?
Well, you are already quite high, high on that hill and also 'high' in another sense. You don't know anymore what day or month or year it is and your watch has become a Dali watch, it is dripping from your wrist.
You have lost all sense of time, eternity beckons ...
But, odd as it may seem, you are still worried that you might run out of petrol and the Yi didn't say 22.1, so ...

Hi Luis
I usualy like your postcards on the hexs.. but this one is not only lovely but spot on the core.
Thanks
So much for artistic license, huh!
Hey, Rosada, maybe you and I can convince Hilary to create a Yi-jam room. The only rule is to groove, baby.

Say Sparhawk, would you feel to go back into the old Memorizing threads and post the appropriate pictures? They are so terrific, plus this does seem to be the perfect time to be reviewing the old postings of antiquity.
In the second half of Wilhelm (pg. 515 in my book under Commentary on the Decision) he says, "'Not eating at home brings good fortune,' for people of worth are honored." Seems to be saying not to worry about finding one's way in life, that if one goes out into the world to seek his fortune he will be successful, he will be fed.
If I were asking about a project and received 26 I would interpret it to mean I ought to make a start and watch for guidance along the way. Particularly if I were going to visit a foreign country, I would feel 26 meant I should try to learn something about the history of the place, a bit of the language before going, but that ultimately I would be okay once I just hit the road, as long as I didn't go too far without stopping to ask for directions.
Interesting that we are discussing the whole hexagram here at the beginning, more so than we have in our previous examinations. It's like we're eager to understand it all, yet this is the very hexagram that says take it one day at a time.
Done!

erm... but they are now out of Hilary's sticky folder. I guess they all return to the top when someone posts something after it's been added to the folder.
I didn't know your son plays sax?
Very cool, Luis. Do I also recall that you play sax?
I asked the IChing to give me a hexagram discribing "Off Topic."
I received 13.6:
Fellowship with men in the meadow.
No remorse.
I thought that was pretty appropriate. To me it's saying that what happens is when folks get into intense conversations, they form an energy, a vibration, that is faster, that is out of sync with the larger group energy. We call it being Off Topic as in being off the larger group topic. But IC says this is apprpriate At This Time. Have No Remorse.
Today my four year old friend's father was teaching him how to use a bow and arrow.
