Will come to this transmission on abundance.
And we are receiving our guidance today.
From hexagram 55 of the I Ching,
The Book of Changes.
To begin,
Let's feel the body grounding down.
Allowing the nervous system a few moments.
To calm.
And arrive in the now.
Bring your attention to your breath.
And as you breathe gently,
Into your chest.
And feeling your ribcage expanding.
Heighten the mind.
And then very gently release the breath.
Once more,
Gently focusing on the inhalation.
Feeling the breath move.
Pausing and very slowly Letting the breath go.
And again.
Feeling that intake.
As you breathe in the breath of life.
Rest for a moment with this breath.
Before releasing it whenever you are ready.
Now let your breath find its own natural rhythm.
As your body relaxes more and more.
Or a calm body and a quiet mind.
Will assist you to receive these words from this teaching.
In a way that is in resonance.
With your holistic being.
As we bring our focus now into our heart center,
We're going to set an intention together.
You can place your hands over your heart or simply keep your awareness in your heart.
While repeating internally or aloud.
I trust.
The wisdom I am receiving.
From this ancient teaching.
Along with my own inner guidance.
Is aligned with my highest good.
And for the greater good of all.
Breathe in trust.
Exhale expectations.
Keeping the heart open.
Mind soft.
And the body relax Turning to this hexagram of abundance.
We see the symbology featured.
With the elements of thunder above fire.
Those are the two primary elements.
Within those two are a further two known as nuclear elements and there we see the wind.
Below the marsh.
Thunder and wind.
Have similar attributes.
They both about change.
And one could see is an amplification of wind.
And similarly so with fire and the lake.
While they do have their own individual attributes.
There are certain qualities which are She.
Like harmony,
Beauty.
Connection.
And so fire.
Is also like an amplification.
And this time amplifying.
The inner qualities of the lake.
Now this image of thunder above a lake presents the idea of a dramatic thunderstorm.
And this thunderstorm is when?
Which moves out all negativity.
All murkiness anything which has been unclear and brings in an all-illuminating brilliance.
Providing clarity.
The stew offers fullness.
And abundance.
Words from the I Ching say There is a powerful force for positive change in your life.
And you should take full advantage of it.
As the auspicious period in front of you will end sometime.
Use good judgments in the actions you take.
Settle any unresolved disagreements.
And know that this is the time to launch new undertaking.
Designed to further your fortunes.
If you run your affairs with a shrewd intelligence and a readiness to take a bold action when required.
Then you may be able to prolong your period of prosperity beyond the time when it would otherwise have come to a natural end.
In your relations with others,
You should demonstrate the enthusiasm and optimism appropriate to one who is enjoying success and good fortune.
Don't make the serious error of seeing each new rewarding opportunity as just another added and troublesome burden.
Enjoy the rare feeling of being able to tackle almost anything and make the success of it.
So we pause here for a few moments.
Reflect on the highlights for you from this passage.
What resonates in your being.
And now let's move on to further guidance from the I Ching.
When a king has reached the point of abundance,
There is no occasion to be anxious through fear of a change.
Let him be as the sun at noon.
Although your time of great good fortune will not last forever.
Still,
You can relish in it and enjoy it.
Enriching yourself and others by doing so.
Perhaps it would be wise to move in the direction of a spiritual goal.
Having achieved your material goals.
Once more,
Reflect on these words.
What stood out for you?
And what were you thinking of?
As you were listening.
Bearing all this in mind.
How will you be different now in your life going forward?
After having received this transmission.
Is there something you will do differently?
Will they be different feelings?
Within you.
As you move through certain tasks.
Opportunities,
Or maybe even challenges.
Hold your awareness close to your heart and let it guide you during this auspicious time.
In closing,
I Ching reminds us in relation to abundance that it is necessary to have peace of mind and a clear untroubled spirit.
To be in harmony and at one with yourself.
May you enjoy your rewards,
No matter what shape.
Size or form they appear in.
And from me to you,
I'm sending you an abundance of blessings.
