The thunderous shock, causing fear and trembling, should be met with a reverence of spirit and an introspection into your own heart.

You are returning to the beginning of a new cycle. A period of dormancy is moving toward a rebirth. With what feels familiar, it is useful to recognize any past mistakes and correct them. It is an auspicious time to come together in unity and merge into a new whole.
External oppression weighs down heavily. Attempts to counter it lead to obstruction. Words have no effect. Only the vastness of one’s internal nature can prevail through gentle persuasion over time.
Move boldly forward without hesitation. Your music will strike a chord in people’s hearts. Without doubt and with sincerity gather your friends near. Your confidence in them will win their enthusiastic co-operation and attain success. You will start something that will endure for which you will only need to lend your responsive devotion and your receptive influence. That movement will have a life of its own.
Passing trials should be seen in the light of eternal truths. Don’t look for a quick fix. You will pay dearly in the end for that. Instead, embrace what promises to sustain you in the long term. Develop your daily practice independently of the traumas and dramas that are challenging you in this moment. Connect with what you know to be true in your heart of hearts. Strengthen your relationship with that. It will see you through to the end of the wild ride.
Keep still in quiet retreat. Cease all movement in the spine and hold your awareness in silence. Empty your mind of past and future, and dwell totally in the moment at hand. Continue reading “Today: Keep still in quiet retreat before taking action – from the I Ching”
Remember who you are and the awesome power within you. Do not show it externally. The less that power is applied outwardly, the greater its effect. Use it to remove resistances and obstructions.

Work with determination and perseverance to make full use of the propitiousness of the time.
