Unable to sleep ( the people are shocked and in awe of the terrible)

I reach for an illustrated copy of the I Ching-lovely

As I sit by the fire- reading, sipping Tension Tamer Tea

My mother’s favorite.

Turning to the last Hexagram #64-“Before the End”

“Which can be compared to a lengthy trek

Over a high mountain”

This treacherous mountain of the now

with it’s unknown descent on the other side.

The I ching does have recommedations…

“You must prepare yourself

With wariness and reserve

The coming situation will be strange

To you in every way

Unlike any that you have experienced.

In the near future,

You will not be able to draw

Upon the wealth of your acquired experience,

For in many ways the time will be

Nothing short of a rebirth.”

Creative power forever and ever ( first Hexagram)

Happy Valentines Day- Best Beloveds!
