Hexagram 09 – Hsiao Ch’u / The Taming Power of the Small

Hexagram 09-glyphLines

The Image of Wind and Wood in Heaven

I Ching, Hexagram 9-Image

I am the restraint of the tension in the moment before it all happens.
I am the power of one’s shadow.
I am a seed in germination.
I am moisture in diffuse suspension before the cloud bursts.
I am the force in the wind gathering the rain.
I am the forgotten dream that influences the day.
I am the moment before the full moon.
I am the spirit of Wind in Heaven.

Hexagram 9, line 1

Nine in the First Place

I return to the way . . .My way!

Hexagram 9, line 2

Nine in the Second Place

I am drawn back to where I belong.

Hexagram 9 line 33

Nine in the Third Place

I am stopped in an atmosphere of tension.

Hexagram 9 line 4

Six in the Fourth Place

I face anger storms that rage inside
And see that my angel wings are casting sword shadows.

Hexagram 9 line 5

Nine in the Fifth Place

I experience excitement in the act of joining,
The pleasure of receiving in the giving.

Hexagram 9 line 6

Nine in the Last Place

Release … The moment of the fullest!
Then … the cycle returns to the descent of what is now in power
