Hexagram Thirty-four
Your symbol is Hexagram 34, which shows justice and right action prevailing over might. In this case, strength will only succeed if it is on the side of good.
The first line, yang, shows one's strength concentrated in the feet, for motion, rather than in the head and heart, for intelligence. The person is unbalanced and going forward will lead to misfortune.
The second line, yang, shows that after realigning one's strength, going forward will bring about the desired result.
The third line, yang, shows a ram butting its horns into a fence and getting stuck. Gaining power and wealth, immature human beings will ruin themselves with their own might. Witnessing such a demonstration, cultured people simply leave the scene to avoid becoming entangled.
The subject of the fourth line, yang, opens the gate, thus the ram passes through without becoming entangled. Using intelligence, wise people succeed without making an angry demonstration.
The fifth line, yin, shows that the intelligent sometimes become unduly angry, but they rise above it soon enough. There is no blame for a slight deviation.
The sixth line, yin, shows the ram butting into the fence and getting stuck. If the ram would only learn from this experience, then it would have good fortune. Might will not conquer where intelligence is required.
To the reader: In all of the hexagrams, at least one of the lines may predict bad results, but that does NOT mean you are destined to get that result. The meaning is that you need to study the action-reaction to see what could go wrong.
From there, focus on the positive outcomes in other lines. Study how different attitudes lead to better outcomes.
Your future is in your hands. Consult the I Ching for ideas that lead to clear thinking and positive mental attitude. The I Ching teaches you to flow with changes. Create positive change from the inside through conscious living. Take the time to reflect on your attitudes and ideas.
