Pushing Upward
Advice
for you in this situation is conveyed through the
image of Pushing Upward, drawn from our I Ching
Oracle. In the Judgment associated with this
image, the oracle says, “Pushing upward has
supreme success. One must see the great man. Fear
not. Departure toward the south brings good
fortune.” In this image, by the way, the
oracle describes a union of two separate
energies, and it is just because of this union
that success is achieved in the end. This
describes the union of your energy with that of
your husband’s. Seeing “the great
man” refers to reliance on a Higher Power
– call it God, or Heaven, or whatever it may
be that you reverence as the Soul of everything
good, beautiful, and true in the Universe. Have
faith in this Divinity that really has no name,
and don’t be afraid of anything.
When the
oracle talks here about “departure toward
the south,” it is not literally advice about
moving in a geographical direction, although
sometimes that can be the case. Usually, this
phrase is just the oracle’s way of
describing any place where work is done by people
together. In the jargon of the I Ching Oracle,
the north is a place for meditation and
contemplation. The south is for work, and in the
image of Pushing Upward, the work is described as
very gradual and consistent. Literally, it
describes the way in which wood grows out of the
earth. It takes time, and it happens step by
step, cell by cell. Think of the old expression,
“Rome was not built in a day.” That is
the basic meaning. Hang in there, each day moving
forward, and in the fullness of time, you cannot
fail to achieve the “supreme success”
that the oracle has promised you.
