58. Tui / Empowering

(Lake above Lake)

Description

The joyous Lake spans on and on to the horizon: The Superior Person renews and expands his Spirit through heart-to-heart exchanges with others. Success if you stay on course.

Analysis

This is the sign of true companionship. The principals in this situation exchange energy, ideas and feelings, constantly invigorating and encouraging each other to new heights of Spiritual achievement and Self-discovery. This exchange is not for the glory of the Team, but for furthering the process of each individual's 'Te', or pure potentiality.

Changing Lines

Line 1

Harmony and quiet words. Joyous contentment. Good fortune.

Line 2

Rejoice in his sincerity. This good fortune will last into the future, if you don't let the past resurface.

Line 3

Arguing and negotiating to win love and joy. Self-defeat. Misfortune.

Line 4

This experimentation with diverse pleasures, this fruitless chase after the ultimate thrill, will damage you. Joy is tranquil, not mad rushing, and will arise from peace.

Line 5

You place your trust in an unworthy ally.

Line 6

Don't let thrill-seeking comrades divert you from true joy.
