34- Ta Chaung/ The Power of the Great
Thunder in heaven above:
The image of the power of the great.
Thus the superior man does not tread upon paths
That do not accord with established order.
Power, patience, perseverance. In the light of my search for a new house, I need to wait for the right time and not rely entirely on my own power, but the ability is definitely within me.

28- Ta Kuo/Preponderance of the Great
Preponance of the great.
The ridgepole sags to the breaking point.
It furthers one to have somewhere to go.
Success.
The lake rises above the tree:
The image of the prepondance of the great.
Thus the superior man, when he stands alone,
Is unconcerned,
If he has to renounce the world,
He is undaunted.
O Nine in the second place means:
A dry poplar sprouts at the root.
An older man takes a young wife. (ye fuck this one is specific lol lol lol)
Everything furthers.
O Nine in the fourth place means:
The ridgepole is braced. Good fortune.
If there are ulterior motives, it is humiliating.
Prompt to take action, but to do so gently, nothing forced, yet still quickly. Extraordinary times are upon us but despite this all goes well. Become a master of the situation, but don't abuse it.
Considering I was casting for answers on the subject of a certain fellow I may well be, ahem, sweet on, despite his living in Lithuania, this is about as precise as it gets. And yes, he is rather older than me. And yes, ulterior motives have occured to me. This about as specific as it can get without the book rising of it's own accord to beat me about the head.
