I Ching

Making a new start may be hard, but it is the only way forward. You are being urged to change things and shake everything up a little.

Change is the key to new opportunities, and if you resist it you block those opportunities and create obstacles that hold you back. You may have to change yourself to make room for what is new. But in that process you will also uncover dormant wisdom that will bring about the greatest transformation yet.

You will also have to do something about the people who are holding you back or dragging you down. That can be done kindly and with love, but be firm in setting your boundaries.

Verse
Changes surface all at once.
I turn my world round in response.
Everything old has had its day.
The future settles in to stay.

Other meanings
The situation you are in now will lead to great changes for the better. It is time to change the way you live. A deep, old wisdom is rising that changes how you see yourself and the world. Allow yourself to change.

About the I Ching
This ancient tradition is a conversation between countless generations and thousands of years of questioners. It is the oldest book of wisdom, dating from the eighth century BC. Because its great value was so widely recognized, it was not burned during the turbulent course of Chinese history. Today it answers our deep-rooted challenges in a changed world.
