The Love Oracle

Your current love situation

Your current situation can be depicted as "Innocence (The Unexpected)" transforming into "Treading (Conduct)".

In front of you lies "Heaven", representing strength and creativity.
Behind you lies "Thunder" which transforms into "Lake". That means that movement, initiative, and action are being transformed into joy, pleasure, and attraction.


The Situation

25. Wu Wang - Innocence (The Unexpected)
Above (in front): Ch'ien - The Creative (Heaven)
Below (behind): Chên - The Arousing (Thunder)




The Judgement for the Current Situation

Innocence. Supreme success.
Perseverance furthers.
If someone is not as he should be,
He has misfortune,
And it does not further him
To undertake something.


The Image for the Current Situation

Under heaven thunder rolls:
All things attain the natural state of innocence.
Thus the kings of old,
Rich in virtue, and in harmony with the time,
Fostered and nourished all beings.


Interpretation of the Changing Line(s)

Line 2: If one does not count on the harvest while plowing,
Nor on the use of the ground while clearing it,
It furthers one to undertake something.


The Future

10. Lu - Treading (Conduct)
Above (in front): Ch'ien - The Creative (Heaven)
Below (behind): Tui - The Joyous (Lake)


The Judgement for the Future

Treading. Treading upon the tail of the tiger.
It does not bite the man. Success.


The Image for the Future

Heaven above, the lake below:
The image of Treading.
Thus the superior man discriminates between high and low,
And thereby fortifies the thinking of the people.
