Read a record of the questions asked of I Ching, read the response, and read the comments of others

What is this period in my life about?
and received a response of:
22 Adornment
The Statement of the first hexagram
Adornment. Continue.
Slight gain in having a place to go.
The changing lines
The third line:
Adornment like bright sparkling,
everlasting and upright.
Fortune.
The fourth line:
As beautiful as a white-feathered horse.
It is not a raider who woos.
The fifth line:
Light adorns hillside gardens:
A betrothal bundle
may be small and meager,
but in the end, fortune.
25 Innocence
The Statement of the second hexagram
Innocence: from the first, all must be
pervasive, gainful, and pure.
Those without such truth suffer calamity
and do not gain no matter where they go.
The Image of the first hexagram
Fire at the foot
of a mountain: adornment.
The noble one thereby
governs with clarity, and
does not dare
to decide lawsuits lightly.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder moves
under heaven: all the world
is innocent. The ancient
kings paid close attention
to the time
in nourishing
the myriad things.
