Water – Water. The Abysmal, pitfalls etc., often associated with the water element. Sure its unpredictable, you can sit beside a peaceful lake, you can be beside the seaside, cruising on the Maid of The Mist at Niagara Falls. All water but a very different emotional experience from each. The talk is of fear but if you know the pitfalls and learn from them it wont be long before you become the teacher and there is nothing so beautiful as water. Look at the intricate patterns of the snowflake.

Its a bit like learning Judo because you are being bullied and know you know things are going to be different because you have lost the fear but the bullies also vanished with that fear. You don't need to fight anymore because you know you can if you had to.

Keep your heart alive and your life lively and you will feel safe. Stagnation is not good. Water is a gift from God with healing, cleansing and purifying qualities. You will need routine but not boredom.

Pay your way and do not overextend yourself. Have a solid base to work from but make changes when required and keep that feeling of being alive. Like the feeling you might get standing near to a waterfall. Vibrant and alive.

We are all born with an uneven stone to carve out makes yours beautiful, smooth and rounded like a pebble on the bottom of a stream. Water smooths out even the hardest of surfaces so you will have every opportunity to produce a stone that people will want to touch and caress and smooth out. So long as you know you have friends and your loved you will cope with anything.

If in doubt take that first step and the path will open in front of you if fear is history. No matter the problem there is always tomorrow. Your imagination can create whatever you need. This hexagram is known as the Teachings of Danger but if you are prepared for life's dangers you will be able to teach others how to avoid the pitfalls.

Water is in constant motion dive right in.

As a 1/7 person myself I see the pitfalls of water only too well but I feel this poem is worth repeating now as it definitely tells of the feelings that need to be felt when water is around.  

Feelings

I feel love,

I feel loved,

I am loved,

I am love,

Move closer,

Closer to me,

For I am you,

And you are me.
