What makes a great leader? Management theorist Simon Sinek suggests, it's someone who makes their employees feel secure, who draws staffers into a circle of trust. But creating trust and safety - especially in an uneven economy - means taking on big responsibility.

The I-Ching: 5,000 Years of Ancient Wisdom
The Philosophy of Constant Flux
The I-Ching, or Yijing, is the oldest of the Chinese classic texts and perhaps the most sophisticated system of divination ever created. Dating back over 3,000 years, its core philosophy is simple yet infinitely deep: the universe is in a constant state of change. This change is not random; it follows the rhythmic interplay of Yin (Receptive) and Yang (Active) energies. By consulting the I-Ching, we are asking the universe: "Where do I stand in the current of change?"
The 64 Hexagrams
The I-Ching is built upon 64 hexagrams - symbols made of six stacked lines. These lines are either solid (Yang) or broken (Yin). Each hexagram is composed of two primary tri-grams, representing fundamental elements of nature like Mountain, Fire, Water, and Heaven. When you cast the I-Ching, you are essentially "capturing" the energetic frequency of the present moment. The resulting hexagram provides a philosophical commentary on how to act with virtue and harmony.
I-Ching for Modern Lovers
While ancient emperors used the I-Ching for statecraft, modern seekers find it remarkably effective for matters of the heart. The I-Ching does not give simple "yes or no" answers; it describes the quality of a relationship. For instance, Hexagram 11 (Peace) suggests a time of flourishing and mutual understanding, while Hexagram 12 (Standstill) warns that communication is blocked and patience is required. By aligning your behavior with the hexagram's advice, you avoid "fighting the current" of your relationship.
The Science of the Sages
Even in a digital format, the I-Ching remains powerful. The computer's randomizing algorithm serves the same purpose as the traditional three-coin method or the casting of yarrow stalks - it creates a moment of synchronicity where the oracle can speak. Whether you are facing a career crisis or a romantic crossroads, the sages of the I-Ching offer timeless advice on maintaining your "Superior Man" or "Superior Woman" character through adversity.

Fanatical Fall 2013 - Big Astrological Changes
Lunar Eclipse - Mercury Retrograde - Solar Eclipse - Uranus-Pluto SquareLunar Eclipse - Mercury Retrograde - Solar Eclipse - Uranus-Pluto Square
Late September through Mid November 2013
Uranus and Pluto are two slow outer planets and aspects between them often last for years. The battle (square) between them began in the Spring of 2011 and will continue through Winter 2015. Because these planets are in retrograde almost as often as they are moving direct, the angle between them will widen and narrow throughout the process. So, there will be times when their energy peaks and then wanes again. Uranus and Pluto will be building up to another peak though the Fall of 2013 and as they approach their climax, Mercury will begin his retrograde, and the Sun and Moon will line up for their biannual ecliptic events.
Uranus and Pluto will bring emotional strife, and some will become fanatical. There will be upsets on the personal and the community level. Its likely that internet crime will increase, so it would be a very good idea to increase the security of your internet accounts. There could also be public demonstrations and disturbances, especially around the Halloween and Samhain holidays.
The Purpose of Studying Kabbalah
The wisdom of Kabbalah (the wisdom of reception) first appeared about 5,000 years ago, when humans began to ask about the purpose of their existence. Those who knew it were called "Kabbalists," and had the answer to life's purpose and to the role of humanity in the universe.
But in those days, the desires of most people were too small to strive for this knowledge. So when Kabbalists saw that humanity did not need their wisdom, they hid it and secretly prepared it for a time when everyone would be ready for it. In the meantime, humanity cultivated other channels such as religion and science.
