I Ching Hexagram 47 - Oppression (Exhaustion)

K'un, the Hexagram of Oppression, speaks of enduring burdens and lack of support. Perseverance is your path to success. Overcome adversity with constancy.

Warns against letting oppressive beliefs hinder spiritual growth. Accept things as they are, remain calm and patient in adversity, and let the universe's creative power work. Stay grounded and persistent, and you can overcome oppression.

Find solutions within yourself. Cultivate a balanced, cheerful attitude and resist doubt. A positive outlook can unlock new perspectives and unseen solutions.

Resist impatience and negative views that block unity with the Sage. Cultivate gratitude and patience, and allow the Higher Power to renew your strength.

Avoid restless effort and forcing unwelcome changes. Accept the present moment, let go of attachment to outcomes, and be open to new possibilities.

Break free from fixed ideas that limit progress. Seek the wisdom of the Sage and remain open-minded to navigate towards a fulfilling path.

Even superior people face difficulties. Remain humble, rely on inner truth, let go of resistance, and approach the situation calmly and open-mindedly to overcome obstructions.

Don't let small doubts grow into negativity that overpowers your determination. Stand firm against despair, recognise help when it arrives, and stay mindful of your progress.
