Chinese astrological I Ching reading: 5/21/16


5/21 is the day of Water Rabbit in the month of Water Snake, and year of Fire Monkey. This is the full moon of the 4th lunar month, the day of Vesak, or Buddha Purnima day. The Buddha was born, obtained enlightenment, and passed away on this day.
This is an open, auspicious, excellent day in the Chinese calendar.
This day is good for retreating, solitude, meditation, study, and religious rituals.
This day is bad for signing contracts, depending on others, gossiping.
Unlucky directions to travel are east and west.
The combination of Water Rabbit and Water Snake is harmonious. It helps turn around and resolve difficulties, and favors studying. It favors diligence, thrift, practicality, and the ability to manage well.
Rabbit is the Star of Romance for Tiger, Horse, and Dog. If you were born in a year or day of one of these three signs, this is a good day for love.
Rabbit is also the Commanding Star for Pig, Rabbit, and Sheep. If you were born in a year or day of one of these, this is a good day for progressing with your work.
Rabbit favors Rabbit, Sheep, Pig, Dog, and Tiger; is neutral toward Snake, Horse, Monkey, and Ox; clashes with Rat and Rooster; and is ambivalent with Dragon.
The I Ching hexagram for this day, using the King Wen method, is number 47, line 1.

Hexagram 47 is Kun, Oppression. Success in perseverance. The great person brings good luck. No blame. Don't tell everyone your business.

Line 1 advises not to let yourself be discouraged. The zodiac signs of line 1, Tiger and Rat, are in harmony with one another. Tiger is strong by the element of the season; Rat is weak. Tiger, by the element of the hexagram, signifies money; Rat signifies creative work. It favors what is being completed over what is being developed, or the end over the means. Just know what you want, and obtain it. Tiger and Rat are for the most part in harmony with the signs of changing lines, 2 and 6, and are both in harmony and discord with the signs of the day and month. Try to avoid unnecessary distractions. The Water of Water Rat day puts a tortoise in line 1. It favors secrecy.
