31 Influence > 35 Rapid Progresss > 9 Humble Leader > 52 Stillness < 39 Impasses
The structure of the gua is Fire above, Earth below. Fire is a symbol of Li, which represents the sun. The structure of this gua shows that the sun is rising over the Earth, an image of progress or a process.
The ideograph of Jing is a beautiful picture of the sun rising over the earth. The circle at the bottom is a symbol of the sun. The horizontal stroke in the middle of the sun is believed to represent a dark spot on its surface. Above the sun, there are two straight lines that symbolize the horizon of the earth. Upon the earth, two plants are flourishing and blooming upward with the yang energy from the sun, glowing like the flame of a fire. The ideograph shows not only an act of proceeding but also the radiance of the energy.
This Cast follows on from one done two months ago, well before he announced his candidacy. I made the Cast because earlier on another geopolitical cast had indicated that a leader would emerge from the field. Since Trump had already emerged, and de Santis as well, I looked for someone who had not yet thrown his hat in the ring and so queried about RFK Jr who had made noises but not yet a commitment.
Yi: RFK as candidate for President 9-5 > 26 < 38
Note that the Primary of that initial Cast is now the Future Influence hexagram (#9, Leadership with Humility, or Public Service). Note also how positive all the hexagrams are with the exception of the Nuclear which is the inner dynamic: RFK’s star may be rising, but the situation is fraught with danger and intractable obstacles.
Another twist discussed in the pdf: the Establishment has black balled him. He is not listed on Democrat Polling results. He is not given interviews in the MSM despite being a Kennedy. The Reading advises him to stay still and ‘not leave the courtyard.’ To the Kings this commentary was written for, the Courtyard is where they did most of their formal Court business and it is where petitioners would present themselves. This indicates that by Keeping Still the world will be coming to him. And those who have ostracized him will find it is they who are left outside. The action will increasingly happen around RFK Jr and the mainstream media and Establishment toadies will find themselves increasingly ignored and irrelevant. For they no longer speak for or with the people. Biden is a complete phony, clearly, one whom increasingly the American people will find themselves easily forgetting as well as those who ostensibly support him.
Of course there is a long time between now and November 2024 but I think it will be interesting to see how these Yi casts hold up over time, along with their Readings, some of which we may be able to revisit to refine further as events reveal more.
PS. If anyone read this as soon as I posted it (around 12:50 EST) there was a power failure as I saved the document and somehow that confused the computer which temporarily lost the file. When I recovered it I did not notice that the most recent few minutes work had not been saved so the initial post of this document did not have the Judgement. Of course, if you did read it then, chances are you will never now read this paragraph. Never mind!!
PPS. Additional synchronicity just noticed: https://baronbrasdor.art/2023/04/21/2023-4-21-can-a-presidential-election-restore-the-american-republic-35-3-56-39/ This Cast done on April 21st wondered if elections can work in the US. The result was #35. The same one as RFJ Jr just rendered. He is an accomplished lawyer used to going up against corporations larger than many small nations. They might not be able to cheat this election if he is the candidate.
