what should I do with this 50 plus year desire to be a novelist?
and received a response of:
50 Cauldron
The Statement of the first hexagram
Cauldron.
Great fortune.
Continue.
The changing lines
The sixth line:
A cauldron with a jade carrier.
Great fortune. Nothing but gain.
32 Constancy
The Statement of the second hexagram
Constancy is to continue
without fault.
Gain through purity.
Gain by having a place to go.
The Image of the first hexagram
Fire on top of wood:
cauldron.
The noble one takes the
principal seat
to solidify his commands.
Could you stoke
the cauldron that feeds
all people?
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder and wind:
constancy.
The noble one stands
without changing direction.
