Reading of the day

A time for contemplation and careful observation. Drawing this hexagram suggests watching the situation quietly and turning the inquiry back upon yourself.

A reflection written by Yarrow Yi, not a quotation from the classic. What, if anything, does this theme bring to your attention today?
