Knight of Wands
14. Possession in Great Measure
This week we pulled the “Knight of Wands”. Depicted here is a situation where one is looking forward, facing the unknown — but done so with initiative fervor and intelligence. This period is one of impassioned action, not of pondering.
Subsequently we rolled a hexagram with no changes. This means that how we enter the week is how we exit the week. The single hexagram is #14, “Possession in Great Measure.” Here it is advised, that to overcome evils and ills, one should “promote the good” — as opposed to directly fighting (fueling) that which is corrupt.
Our extraction: This week it seems useful to keep in mind the phrase fortune favors the brave, as it is much in line with the meaning of the “Knight of Wands.” Add to it the modifier from our hexagram which states that all actions in this period should be performed in a “graceful and controlled way” — and one has quite a sound attitude with which to conduct one’s self.
