Ten of Wands
35. Progress
This week we pulled the “Ten of Wands.” This card points to management and obfuscation. Something has been brought under your control; but the difficulty of corralling the disorder has caused the blocking of more comprehensive objectives. Watch for overdeterminations and oversights in your efforts.
This week we rolled a hexagram with no changes. This means that how we enter the week is how we exit the week. Our single hexagram is #35, “Progress.” The image here is of the sun rising above the horizon. Its power and reach increase as it distances itself from the earth. The metaphor here seems to be something like clarity comes from pulling away from complexity — thriving requires an increasingly clear system.
Our extraction: A burden has been wrestled into control — the substantial efforts took all your energy. Before moving forward you are going to have to take a brief pause, to fully take in the terrain around you. Reorganize the hierarchy of your efforts, establish your goals (intermediate and ultimate) and make some progress!
