If the water pik is at full strength, not clogged at all, that must mean that I’m doing something right, finally. I hope so. I actually stopped all supplements for a few weeks, when I started getting sick again (stomach problem). I found my colostrum again this morning, so I’ve started that again. I use Oxygen BR mouth rinse, and sometimes the gentle toothpaste, also Uncle Harry’s mouthwash and enamel strengthening mouth rinse that you hold for a few minutes, when I remember. Also, the nano-hydroxyapatite toothpastes (Pearlie White, and then Biorepair intensive at night - I use my electric toothbrush, and then brush more on thickly, as a treatment, at times).

Only Emotional level. A family member is under uncertainty in the 3d. It's pain to see this.

It's hard times for those of us who are empathetic to the many and those close to us too. Unnecessary meaness has been too common .. Uranus in Taurus, shocking bully energy.

Here a full I Ching divination using the "coin method" is simulated. The "divination" section immediately below shows the divination itself, giving the hexagrams, the judgments, the images, and the moving lines. The "derivation" section below that shows the divination process in detail, from the results of the coin tosses through to the construction of the hexagrams and the identification of the moving lines.

To obtain a new divination, simply refresh this page. You can get more information about an individual hexagram by clicking on it or on its title.

(Note: the numbers in parentheses below the title of each hexagram refer to the page in the Wilhelm/Baynes 1968 Third Edition of I Ching or book of changes where additional commentary on the individual hexagram can be found.)

Divination
Ta Chuang
Ta Chuang — The Power of the Great
(133)

The Judgement
THE POWER OF THE GREAT. Perseverance furthers.

The Image
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.

The Lines
Nine in the fourth place means:

Perseverance brings good fortune.
Remorse disappears.
The hedge opens; there is no entanglement.
Power depends upon the axle of a big cart.

Changing to…

T'ai
T'ai — Peace
(48)

The Judgement
PEACE. The small departs,
The great approaches.
Good fortune. Success.

The Image
Heaven and earth unite: the image of PEACE.
Thus the ruler
Divides and completes the course of heaven and earth;
He furthers and regulates the gifts of heaven and earth,
And so aids the people.

Derivation
To consult the oracle, we must use three coins (there is another method of consulting the oracle using yarrow stalks, but the coin method is simpler, and just as good). Traditionally Chinese coins are used, with a plain side and an inscribed side, but any coin will suffice provided you decide in advance which face will represent the plain side and which will represent the inscribed side. Throw the three coins, and determine which way up they landed. The inscribed side of the coin is worth 2, and the plain side is worth 3. Add together the three numbers, and this is the number of the first or bottom line of the hexagram. Repeat this process five times for the remaining lines.

Each line will total 6, 7, 8 or 9:

6 is an old yin, represented by a broken line;
7 is a young yang, represented by a single line;
8 is a young yin, represented by a broken line; and
9 is an old yang, represented by a single line.
The old yin and the old yang are known as moving lines, and each moving line in the hexagram affects the reading — a moving line will only occur if all three coins land the same side up. Furthermore, the movement in these lines gives rise to a new hexagram, whose meaning must be taken into account in the reading. To obtain this new hexagram, sixes in the original hexagram become sevens in the new hexagram, and nines in the original hexagram become eights in the new hexagram. The new hexagram will therefore not contain any moving lines. If the original hexagram has no moving lines, then a second hexagram is not employed. It is these movements which give the "Book of Changes" its name.

The table below shows our sample divination and the hexagrams thereby obtained:

Coin 1 Coin 2 Coin 3 Total Change
Line 6 3 2 3 8 8
Line 5 2 3 3 8 8
Line 4 3 3 3 9 8
Line 3 2 2 3 7 7
Line 2 2 3 2 7 7
Line 1 2 3 2 7 7

We have obtained the hexagram Ta Chuang — "The Power of the Great", so we interpret both the "judgment" and the "image" for this hexagram in our reading. In addition, there is one moving line in this hexagram, namely:

Nine in the fourth place
As well as the judgment and the image for Ta Chuang we need to interpret the text attached to this moving line in our reading also.
