Daily Chinese astrological I Ching reading: 8/9/15


8/9 is the day of Fire Snake in the month of Water Sheep. This is a partly discordant figure. It favors friendliness, but independence.
Snake is the Traveling Star for Pig, Rabbit, and Sheep. If you were born in a year or day of one of these three signs this is a good day to start something in your work, and to travel. Because this day is so close to the beginning of fall, guard against accidents and mishaps.
The I Ching hexagram for this day, using the King Wen method, is number 41, line 3.

Hexagram 41 is Sun, Decrease. Sincerity, along with restraint of anger and desire brings good fortune. It is good to persevere. This hexagram is favorable for people born in the month of Monkey (August - September).

Line 3 advises seeking balance in everything. If three travel together, one drops out. If one travels alone, a companion appears. The zodiac sign for line 3, Ox, is strong in this season (Chinese fall) and with this hexagram. It represents relationships of friends and siblings. Ox is in harmony with the signs of changing line, 5, and with the sign of the day, but clashes with the sign of the month. Not everyone gets along. But, the Ox, being strong, can deal successfully with its competition. The Fire of Fire Snake day puts a snake in line 3. It helps to look beneath the surface.

The elements of this hexagram are Earth, Metal, and Earth. Gold is buried in the earth. Profits are coming.
