Difficulty at the beginning works supreme success ...furthering through perseverance. Nothing should be undertaken until clarity is attained. It furthers one to appoint helpers.
"When it is a man's fate to undertake new beginnings, everything is still unformed, dark." [Wilhelm]
This is the future of the time of Contemplation. The Image of this hexagram is clouds and thunder, the chaos of the storms of spring from which natural growth arises.
Remember - all true growth is organic. "Accept and bear with the discomfort of chaos without attempting to push it away. Allow it to clear of its own accord, in its own time." [Walker] Go slow, don't bite off more than you can chew, and look for friends who can help and support you. "Supreme success" lies waiting.
What is this "new beginning" for you?
