On the day leading up to Rosh HaShanah in 2024 (Jewish year 5785) I threw the I Ching with the question, “What poetic and musical activities should I concentrate on in the near future?” The resulting hexagram was K'an, rendered as “The Abysmal” by an English retranslation of Richard Wilhelm’s classic German translation of the I Ching.
☵ Water ☵ Water
The heart does nothalt at danger
Lyric, ringing bold, guides love and reason through the steep ravine
What is sinceremust succeed
The heart does nothalt at danger
Song, ringing bold, guides love and reason through the steep ravine
What is sinceremust succeed
