Hexagram Fifty-nine Your symbol is Hexagram number 59, a state of moral degradation that can be rectified through belief in a higher power. When the king sets up his altar and becomes immersed in faith, then great things can once again be accomplished. The first line, yin, shows one who rescues another with the help of a strong and able horse. The second line, yang, shows the time of danger has passed, for the person in the first line has saved him/her. Both people seek refuge in the strong horse. The third line, yin, shows one who overcomes his/her own limitations to help another person in need. Being able to set one's own needs aside for the sake of another shows strength of character. The fourth line, yin, shows one who is able to break up an angry crowd. Then from the people who have disbursed, assemble a productive crew. This is an example of great wisdom. The fifth line, yang, shows a king calling out to his citizens, even though they've been forced out of their land. The king is in the proper position, so let him continue. The sixth line, yang, shows one who takes precautions to avoid a dangerous situation, just as one may cover their wounds. One must do what is possible, yet still keep out of trouble. 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.
