Peace isn’t something you arrive to. It’s something you participate in.

Hexagram 11 doesn’t describe a perfect state where everything is finally aligned.
It shows a dynamic: forces moving toward each other.

That’s a very different definition of harmony.

And it feels especially relevant right now. There’s a collective need to meet again. To bridge gaps between people, between communities, where distance has slowly taken over.

But it also starts much closer.

In your relationship.
With your partner.
Your friends.
Your family.

Harmony lives in that constant willingness to meet — even when it’s uncomfortable, even when it would be easier to pull away.

The real question isn’t “is this harmonious?”
It’s: am I moving toward… or away?

There’s something really interesting coming up in the community.

Elwin will share how he approaches certain I Ching readings that don’t feel “just personal” where patterns seem to repeat and point to something deeper.

A different way of looking at the hexagram, more layered, more nuanced… without losing the simplicity of the practice.

I love this kind of angle; it expands your reading without overloading it.

If you’re already a bit familiar with the I Ching, you’re going to enjoy this a lot.

Lately it’s felt like running a marathon with no finish line.

At some point I just felt… exhausted.
A bit disconnected. Like part of me was there, and part of me wasn’t anymore.

So I asked the I Ching:
how can I better deal with this exhaustion?

The answer didn’t fix anything externally.
But it helped me see what actually matters right now.

→ one person can be enough to feel anchored
→ small moments with my kids are enough (even if I don’t do it perfectly)
→ and I don’t need to push through when I’m depleted

There’s something very simple in that.
And also very relieving.

That’s what I love about the I Ching:
it doesn’t try to control the situation, it brings you back to what you can hold.

March ‘26: By now, you’ve probably felt it.

March didn’t feel quiet.
It brought more energy, more ideas, a stronger desire to move things forward — and at times, a certain impatience when things didn’t move as fast as you wanted.

Maybe you started something.
Maybe you felt ready to.
Maybe you also felt that tension between “I want to go” and “it’s not fully there yet.”

That’s very much the energy of March.

In the I Ching, this month is represented by Hexagram 34 - Great Power: a moment when strength rises quickly. It brings momentum, confidence, initiative… and also the temptation to push, rush, or try to make things happen before they’re fully aligned.

Looking back, it’s interesting to notice where that showed up for you.

Where did you feel movement?
Where did impatience come in?
Where did you push or hold yourself back?

Because this is part of a larger cycle of 12 phases through the year.
March is where energy rises, and what you do with it shapes what comes next.

Sometimes the I Ching lands on the exact page that mirrors the moment.

This week it was Hexagram 6: Conflict.

Reading it while living through the reality of war here in Israel felt almost surreal. The hexagram speaks about moments when opposing forces are convinced of their own rightness, and how the instinct to push harder can deepen the divide.

Its wisdom is surprisingly simple: before escalating, pause and seek clarity.

I couldn’t help wishing that message could reach a few world leaders right now.

And beyond global conflicts, this hexagram also speaks to the smaller tensions we face in our own lives — the moments when we’re not sure how to move forward.

If you’re navigating one of those moments, the I Ching can be a powerful mirror.

You’re welcome to reach out if you feel called to explore it through a session. 🌿

At the foot of the mountain, a small spring begins to rise. The water is fresh and alive, full of curiosity and movement, carrying a natural desire to flow. At this early stage, it doesn’t yet have a clear direction, and that’s part of its nature. It explores, spreads, and learns its way forward through movement itself.

Above the spring stands the mountain, steady and shaped by time and experience. Its presence offers a reference point, a form, a rhythm. Without forcing anything, it gives the water a direction to follow. Slowly, the spring learns how to gather, how to deepen, how to flow within a path that allows it to travel further.

This is the image of Hexagram 4 in the I Ching. It speaks to the moment of being a learner, when curiosity is strong, questions are alive, and understanding is still taking shape. Learning unfolds through patience and humility, through accepting guidance and allowing experience to do its work.

For me, it’s a gentle reminder that we grow through openness and steadiness, and that being a student is not a phase we outgrow, but a posture we keep coming back to 🌱

🌊 Hexagram 64 - Before Completion (未濟, Wèi Jì)

As 2025 comes to a close, we find ourselves in that magical in-between space: endings mingling with beginnings. Hexagram 64, “Before Completion,” tells us that even when things feel almost done, the last steps are the most important.

Think of the fox crossing the river. Agile and alert, it must keep its tail dry to reach the other side safely. Like the fox, we too are asked to move with care, presence, and gentle attention as we step into what’s next.

This is a time to pause and reflect:
✨ What needs your mindful attention before the new year begins?
✨ How can patience and awareness help you cross your own river with ease?

From this “not yet” space, order emerges from chaos, endings give way to beginnings, and new opportunities take shape.

Take a quiet moment, breathe, and honor where you are.

Ever wonder how Carl Jung connected with the I Ching? It was a tool he used to explore the unconscious mind and its patterns.

It helped him understand the deeper connections between our inner world and what’s happening around us. It’s not about predicting the future—it’s about uncovering meaning in the present.

Check out our latest blog post to see how the I Ching influenced Jung’s work on synchronicity, the unconscious, and how we make sense of the world. It’s all about seeing the patterns that are already there.

What surprised you most about Jung’s connection with the I Ching? Or is there anything you’d add to this conversation?

Discover how Carl Jung used the I Ching—not as mysticism, but as a psychological tool to explore synchronicity, symbolism, and the unconscious.

It’s wild to think this was written over 150 years ago — and yet Alexander Wylie’s words still ring true.

The Book of Changes (I Ching) has been revered in China for thousands of years — not just because it’s old, but because it holds layers upon layers of meaning. Wylie, a 19th-century Scottish missionary and scholar, was one of the first Westerners to study Chinese literature seriously. Even he was struck by the depth of the I Ching, calling it “unfathomable wisdom” hidden beneath “mysterious symbols.”

That mystery is part of what makes it so powerful. It’s not a book you just read once — it’s one you return to again and again, and it somehow always has something new to say.

Have you ever worked with the I Ching? Or is it something you’ve been curious about?
