I Ching Trigrams Represent Cycles of Time, As In Lunar Phases

The phases of the Moon represent the cycles of time itself. From these cycles, all time flows. From the biggest to the smallest scales, as a fractal, all things flow according to these cycles. The image of Tao, with its yin and yang, represent the flowing of this process. You can see the cycles in the Trigrams of the I Ching. The Waxing Moon, as the moon is growing, represents the increase of yang-energy. The Waning Moon represents the increasing yin-energy.

The I Ching trigram is a diagram of the flowing of the times, the seasons, the play of energy-essences. The solid line represents yang-energy, and the split line represents yin-energy. Here is a key to interpretation. The bottom line represents self-expression, as in the subject The top line represents the object, as in object of awareness. The middle line represents the meeting of the subject and object, the verb, activity. In the first sentence of trigram interpretation, I will break down the meaning of each line of the trigram according to the structure bottom-middle-top.

Earth: yin-yin-yin: No self-expression, nothing to do, nothing to observe
This represents the Dark Moon and the New Moon. Notice the total yin-energy, ‘darkness,’ silence. It represents a sort of extreme passivity, or acceptance of all. Since is the transition point linking the end point and the beginning point, this is the ultimate complexity. This means that the yin, feminine, Goddess is technically more primary, or ultimate.

Thunder: yang-yin-yin: Self-expression, nothing to do, nothing to observe
Waxing crescent moon, occurs in the beginning of the process of increasing visibility, amount of light. The yang energy is beginning its ascent. Life is beginning to flower. It represents an inner passion. A territorial sense, desiring freedom of movement and expression. beginning of the ‘God’ chasing the ‘Goddess,’ the masculine principle

 Water: yin-yang-yin: No self-expression, activity, nothing to observe
Waxing Half Moon, of increasing light. Immersion into reality. When doing something, there is only that doing. When writing, just writing.

 Mountain: yin-yin-yang: No self-expression, no activity, something to observe
Waxing Gibbous moon, nearing complete light. In awe of the magnificence of what is naturally there. Awareness.

 Lake: yang-yang-yin: Self-expression, activity, nothing to observe
Full Moon, complete light. Self-chosen activity. Conscious decision-making.

Fire: yang-yin-yang: Self-expression, no activity, something to observe
Waning Gibbous Moon, decreasing light. Watching and feeling, but doing nothing. Self-expression fulfilled through observation.

 Wind: yin-yang-yang: No self-expression, activity, something to observe
Waning Half Moon, decreasing light. Read and react. Play-acting. Maya- illusion. Lila, reality-as-a-play.

 Heaven: yang-yang-yang: Self-expression, activity, something to observe
Perfect unity. Personal preferences guide actions, and it fits perfectly with the situation you are in, and the people, who are in full agreement.

So this is the basic pattern through which time travels. These are the ‘seasons’ of nature and life. This process and these elements are the source of all mythology, rituals, and general compulsions. At any scale of time, or any scale in space, range of influence, reality functions through this essential process.

My E-mail to Timothy Leary’s Publishing Company

Are you out there?

Timothy Leary is my absolute icon. There are some others who I absolutely love as well, that I truly feel ‘get it.’ In the course of my reading, as I contemplated and became more and more knowledgeable on all of these issues, I found a few other people who were among my idols, most favorite authors. After some time of reading these people, I came to find out that they were all published by one Publishing Company. That was “New Falcoln Publications,” you guys. My dream is to be an author, and it would be my absolutely perfect fantasy if I could get published by the same Company as Timothy Leary. Now, despite the fact that you published other authors who are among among my favorite, they do not mean as much to me as Timothy Leary. I feel that he is perhaps the most brilliant mind of all time. It is unbelievable to me that he gets so little recognition, in terms of real respect. Despite this, I know the best time for his legacy is still ahead of us. These men, especially Leary, were intelligent far beyond their time. Here’s the kicker, though. They’re still far ahead of the times today! As our Intelligence Increases(I^2), we will more and more recognize their incredible genius, and their work will be the guideposts along further development of knowledge and wisdom.

I hope to carry on this tradition. I have thoroughly studied, and seriously considered believing for myself, many different systems of thought. This ultimately led me to a sort of undeniable truth of the paradox. Nothing is true, therefore all things are on an equal plane of truth. “Reality Tunnels.” Timothy Leary said something along the lines of “Truth is what is subjectively true based on the wiring of the nervous system.” An open embrace of the unknown, the chaos, is clearly the guiding principle of a whole new dimension of evolution. This evolution is, of course, the activation of Post-Terrestrial Circuits of Consciousness. We now have the means, particularly the communicative technology, required to empower the masses as Reality-Creators, preparing for migration off the womb-planet. Various other scientific and technological advancements are being made, particularly quantum-physics, Neurology, the Genetic Code, imprinting(not necessarily widely accepted, in terms of accepting the imprinting theory on humans, although it is accepted with animals) of the Nervous System, especially aided through usage of certain drugs, and last, and perhaps most importantly, the Internet. The Internet is perhaps the most important invention in the history of mankind, and I am proving that now seeing as I am e-mailing the Publishing Company that published my idol, Timothy Leary, along with an attachment to a PDF file of a sort of mini-book, “The Journey”(TheJourney being my primary online name), which comes with all sorts of amazing images, colors, and fonts. If this all works out, and I am able to become successful like I know I should, it will be an absolute testament to the new Medium, the Internet. I will do everything in my power to progress Human Thought.

So I have been writing a lot, for quite some time now. I have written so much about so many different topics. Recently, my intelligence and creativity and motivation has just been off the roof. Everything is coming together so quickly, and I know that this is all meant to be. Everything works out in such a way, that the timing is undeniable. (Coincidence Control Center(C.C.C.) as I call them in my mini-book) I know it is my destiny to get in the public eye so that I can help humanity advance in incredible ways.
