Hexagram 56: 旅 (Lǚ) - The Wanderer

"To be an eternal pilgrim."

Core Story

Lü – The Wanderer (Hexagram). Fire upon the mountain. When the current path no longer beckons, I shall draw forth the flame, and it shall illuminate a new way upon which I am destined to travel. This speaks of liberation, perpetual journeying, and non-attachment.

Gift (Growth Potential)

The lightness of being, swift adaptation to any circumstance, and the perpetual sense that life is always just unfolding.

Shadow (Risk of Fall)

The eschewing of profound commitments, a certain superficiality in engagements, and the occasional pangs of solitude on the protracted journey.
