Hexagram 24 "Returning"

 

 According to traditional teachings of the I Ching (pronounced Yee Jing) Hexagram 24 relates to the Winter Solstice as a cosmological event. A turning point, a fresh start to recharge the self; which if one is diligent to practice brings success. The Taoist of China teach it as turning of bleakness back to the luminous the light. The winter solstice, the shortest day of the year, the day when darkness begins to decrease and the hours of daylight start to increase. This is the Tao of a turnaround—a time for letting go of the old and making way for the new; a time of new beginnings. And it all starts with YOU! 

Time to lose the social media, cable news and all the main stream B.S. and learn to shut the phone off and become less cyborg and more normal again. Work on the self and begin to heal from a year of chaos and confusion. All we have is today;... yesterday does not matter;... and the future is just chaos speculation of the mind.

 


We All Need A Focus Point

The above graph is a small snippet of how emotions harm the body from a Traditional Chinese Medical Philosophy view point. The over excitation of emotions damage the main body regulating organs. The government is lacking in providing information on how supplements, herbs and body cultivation is crucial in keep strong in face of any illness. People that follow Qigong or East Asian Healing Way of Life know what I am talking about. Chemical Medications, Vaccines and even weekly allergy shots will not balance you for the most part. I know from experience this how I ended up in these practice in my early teen years. So I am not a fan for sure, all I am saying is try the natural way first and see if it works for you. Western Medicine is backed by share holders and big business and I don't trust them.

 

So if you are into this type of teaching think about the solstice and possibly use it as a date to begin a fresh start. Be careful what you let into your mind and how you live youre life. Remember everyone out there in digital land is trying to influence youre attention and sell something. Shut it all done and become normal and balanced again. The simplest of practice could be the best practice. Focus on healing the inner weather of youre body/mind.
