Key Questions

What are you aiming for?
How can you get more from your strengths?

Oracle

'The Army: with constancy.
Mature people, good fortune – no mistake.'

When there is cause, the ruler raises an army. This is a time when everything revolves around a central objective: inner and outer resources are realigned and ordered in accordance with it. It's important that a mature leader take responsibility, not least so that intensity of focus does not become blinkered vision or pure belligerence, turning everything that is not the goal into the enemy. Balancing the drive to 'get it done' with a measured, disciplined approach allows you to achieve your objective effectively and with less 'collateral damage': good fortune, without mistake.

Image

'In the centre of the earth is a stream: the Army.
A noble one accepts the people and gathers together crowds.'

Sequence

The Army follows from Hexagram 6, Arguing:
'Arguing naturally means that crowds rise up, and so the Army follows. The Army means crowds.'

Pair

The Army forms a pair with Hexagram 8, Seeking Union:
'Seeking Union means delight; the Army means grieving.'
