Situations beyond our control
Spirit shares His understanting of Hexagram 16 . Tunder is over Earth; yin over yin.
“Delight means Pleasure. Delight/Pleasure follows Respectful (15) and leads to Following (17). We are attracted to like-minded people. If we can live and work together with an attitude of mutual respect then the work itself becomes a pleasure.”
“That sounds like an ideal situation, but many of us associate and work with people who seem determined not to develop an attitude of respect; mutual or otherwise.”
“Then why are we there?”
“Perhaps we feel trapped within conditions beyond our control, and must choose a situation that is the lesser of two or more evils.”
“Then, take control of the situation.”
“That’s easier said than done.”
“Yes.”
