The Master Therion I-Ching

Hexagram # 57

Hexagram 57. Sun 
The Gentle (The Penetrating, Wind)  SUN

Wood, wind; mark their subtly suave a persistence!  
Elastic ease, the line of least resistance.

Infirm of purpose, learn the soldier's way.  
Ask humbly of the gods to guide thy course!  
Violent excess of struggle breeds remorse.  
Wide forethoughts and shrewd tactics pledge thee prey.  
With steady, easy strokes apply thy force.  
Fear, indecision, sap the last resource.

  

     a suave: "sweet," "wholesome," and "gentle."
