I'm turning 49 tomorrow

...and feel like a frog in a blender.

Ah, yes...the 49th hexagram: REVOLUTION, aka Radical Change: topsy-turvy ass-over-teakettle KABOOM.

Sort of like...midlife.

The first morning of spring:
I feel like
someone else

Happy (extremely belated) 49th birthday!

I found your blog today, and I love it. Part of the reason I'm here is to look for information on Hexagrams 48, 49, 50, and 13, which is how Google led me to you. Coincidentally, I turned 49 a few weeks ago, and it was right around that time that I drew 49 turning to 13.

I didn't know that Hexagrams 48 and 50 depict the only two man-made objects in the I Ching, the well and the cauldron. I find that so very interesting, and I wouldn't have learned that if I hadn't found your blog, so thank you for that tidbit of wisdom.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

You're very welcome, and here's an extremely belated thank-you for visiting my blog and for your lovely comment. Some hard necessities have taken me far from my study of the oracle, and it is high time I returned to it!

Blessings to you!
