Hexagram 55 -- ZENITH; EPITOME

To know that you are loved
that you, yourself, can love
surpasses any dreaming wish
disperses every fear ~




High noon:
a sliver
of glory

Yes,yes,yes. It's what I heard at this Richard Rohr conference last weekend: the mystics all tell us that God loves us overwhelmingly into being and into each moment.

"... loves us overwhelmingly into being ..." -- Yow!! That's quite the phrase ... a whole new understanding of "overwhelm" ... I like it. Thanks, Jan.

... and I'm loving all your puppy pictures! xoxo

Wonderful poppies! They seem to be in the moment of catching fire - perfect for a fire-and-thunder hexagram.

And zenith - epitome - crux point... the idea of 'overwhelm' is hidden in there somewhere, just as Hexagram 28 is hidden in the core of 55.

(The Yeekery is my way of expressing appreciation... :) )

Renee ... isn't it? The colour and light leap right out, don't they ...

Hilary! Glad you popped by :-) What's the Yeekery?

Yeekery = being a Yi Geek. Seeing nuclear hexagrams everywhere is a good example.

Hilary -- I love it! I will happily admit to being a Yeek! :-D

That's beautiful, so is the accompanying photo.
