Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes

The I Ching is based around ideas related to the dynamic balance of opposites, the evolution of events as a process, and acceptance of the inevitability of change. ~ Wikipedia




So once again I tossed the coins to play this ancient binary game:

 K'un / Oppression (Exhaustion)  

Oppression. Success. Perseverance.
    The great man brings about good fortune.
    No blame.
    When one has something to say,
    It is not believed.

    There is no water in the lake:
    The image of Exhaustion.
    Thus the superior man stakes his life
    On following his will.

Six changing at the beginning means:

    One sits oppressed under a bare tree
    And strays into a gloomy valley.
    For three years one sees nothing.

Which results in

Tui / The Joyous, Lake

    The Joyous. Success.
    Perseverance is favorable.

The Image

    Lakes resting on one another:
    The image of the Joyous.
    Thus the superior man joins with his friends
    For discussion and practice.

Does it mean anything?   
Does it not mean anything?  


Does it even matter since things have already changed since I tossed the coins in the flow of life?
