Nine in the Fourth Place
When you move too fast without out taking time to think,
like a meteor that burns quickly and dies,
the speed will cause you to fall.
Let go of what you can’t do or can’t use.
Nine in the fourth place changes to hexagram 27.
Paintings and Prescriptions, hexagram27.

Beautiful as always Adele!
But: 30.4 transforms to 22?
Thanks for your comment Rose. And thanks for pointing out my mistake. I will have to fix immediately. I must have been out to lunch that day.
My favorite image of all you’ve done. Just magnificent and fits the line perfectly!
Thanks Trish. As I sent you in an email this image also illustrated the synchro of a friend’s death, although she did not burn out too fast – just burned out.
May I just say that I agree with Trish . This is a brilliantly original exposition of the meaning behind the line . How did you come up with it .
This is original I Ching in pictures . Apologies for my little \’ poem \’ dashed off in the same spirt . My throw away life ! .
This image was one of the easiest ones to come up with – not necessarily to create – but the line just lends itself to this image.
E equals Mc sq One big bang . That\’s about it . This tends to be my nature . So it\’s always good to have the more feminine ease .
Thanks Ian. Yes, I liked it. Perhjaps you could write your own poetry I Ching.
Now . That would be a conceit Adele . In my personal view of the Yi ,it seems that in real life , actual situations are created . Kind of like a play . Everything becomes a picture , or verse , in real life . What does lets say line 3 Chi Chi actually manifest as , in real life . Life becomes an adventure kind of thing , also real . Never easy . Unless the top line of this last hexagram . Until the hangover .
Hi Trish . I hope Adele doesn\’t mind , here is how the Li hexagram makes me feel . Overall . I hope you like it .
The Eye of the Beholder ( Li )
First glint of dawn
Carefully we kick out the camp fire
Sparks crisscrossing in the morning air
Misty , not too bright
The sun a gold coin high in the sky
Warm
Later we go down the beach
Castanets . Techno beat
Never grow old . Dance
Across the seas a distant shore
Sacred Ganges river
Funeral pyres lit .Burnt offerings
Hot tears like lava flow
And we cry like babies
Bikram yoga is all we know
And the volcano erupts
And forever and ever
We will always be consumed
In fire
Ian
Wish
Space ship Yi Jing
Re enters the atmosphere
Burns up like a shooting star
Gone
