Yi 34: poem 2: My Drinking



Hilary Barrett:

"To experience Integrity is like coming face to face with your real self – plain, simple and unadorned. To have Integrity is to be whole, at one with yourself and with reality. This ‘know thyself’ hexagram can also mean realism about your own capacities, as well as your own importance in the greater scheme of things." 

Yi 35: Honda Knot burnout: walk away

 Take a break, work on Baseball Movie.


Hilary Barrett:

"To experience Integrity is like coming face to face with your real self – plain, simple and unadorned. To have Integrity is to be whole, at one with yourself and with reality. It means being honest about your own capacities, holding yourself in creative balance with your world and not exaggerating the importance of your role."

Yi 34: what good to McP that we meet again

 



Hilary Barrett:

"The early Chinese character for 'Opening' shows someone with words rising from their mouth: they seem to be dancing and singing. It means joyful and outgoing expression that opens up communication. Opening brings people together and begins a lively creative process of sharing and exchange."

Yi 33: what good to Jacq being effed to O

 where this question came from.

Jacq's House dream

Many years ago.

In the dream, I arrive at Jacq's house, seems like maybe on a hill. There's a Ford Mustang in the driveway or car port, looks like model year of 1967 birth. Color, per the Ford chart, is a "turquoise," either "Frost" or "Tahoe" or wtf ever.  

The front door is open and a gnome-like dude at the door gestures for me to enter. I do.

My self-guided tour starts at a room with coffee table-type books and foliage.

Next and last stop is a bathroom I step out of to find Jacq at the top of the stairs, in a gown, she looks slightly disheveled. I am at the foot of the stairs. We look at each other, end dream.

Yi 32: what good to women when they are fucked to orgasm

 

.

Yi 31: first time with two women

 what begged this question.


Hilary Barrett:

"The old Chinese character for Increasing shows a pot filled to overflowing. It means blessing and superabundance, like the timely rain that brings a rich harvest. Increase simply flows, without limit; there is no need for restrictive frameworks to contain it, but only for tools to work with it." 


Yi 30: harem 3: what good to my health

 harem 2


Knew it was coming.

Hilary Barrett:

"Hexagram 34 is Great Vigour – or Power, or Strength. The old character shows a scholar, or an impressive man, and half the character for ‘tree’. It means robust, powerful, in the prime of life. Combined with the character for ‘great’ – a man standing straight – this gives a powerful impression of virile strength and energy.  You are inspired and animated by strong purpose, and ready to wield your strength like a hero."

Yi 28: harem 1: Gift from God in the news

 In the dream from many years ago Matt tells me "you're going to have a harem." The end.



In one subsequent dream, a dozen or so women are approaching me on, as best I can describe, the top of a train in motion. All are removing their clothes as they near, their eyes on me. In another dream, at least a dozen women are in a room I am in. I am watching them dance what seems like the Twist. (Contextually, I have been celibate for almost 16 years.)
