August 15 ’23
Mold shapes in the fridge of a
cabin in ruin.
Headlights across the lake,
distant talking and a muffled tune.
Dim trees, lapping water and the wail
of a secluded loon.
Wall hung rusted pots.
Distant rifle shots.
Memory and expectation all in knots.
***
Sitting, alone, cross-legged on this night shore, it almost feels like a great quantum mist threads and stretches among all things.
Genderless. Argumentless. Questionless. Humanless. Purposeless. Neither monist nor divided, but performing, animating, trying, occurring.

The output of Heim + Viladrich is generally sharp and lovely — but to us their Glacière ice box is really something else.
Of course there’s the plain irony: an object typically made from styrofoam made of a completely inconvenient material (limestone) — an environementalist bon mot — the short term cool (of the the standard non-biodegradable foam cooler) is ruinous to the long term cool (of glaciers). But also it is an object of great beauty. Like something Ripley might sit on to collect herself on the Nostromo, or a chest Rick Owens would use to keep bottles some sort of grey, custom health drink. And that sandy, worn sarcophagus color!
(Oh the carbon foot print of having one shipped to Los Angeles...)

11. Peace
These first few lines are the general aphoristic returns for the week. They are raw and uninterpreted; there to use how you’d like. (The specific readings follow.)
- Be on guard against outwardly deceptive personal behavior caused by internal conflict.
- You MUST take time to find the origins of your self-sabotaging behavior (if a source cannot be found go back as far as you can).
- Even though there are always unforseen mutations, there are also cycles, trying to get things right, at the beginning of a cycle is important.
- Get ahead of a repeated error.
- When harmony and peace occur, you don’t have to do anything at all.
- Meditate.

From “S.G.”: I often get into conflicts, mostly middling in nature (not too, too crazy — but crazy enough). Even though conflict of this sort has been common throughout my life, often I still feel caught off guard. Any advice for how to avoid them or how to diffuse them? (I realize this is basically two questions.) Thanks.
The suggestion here, is that the cause of the conflict is mostly on your end; that these situations are pushed by deeper, long standing inner turmoil. These cofrontations are only surface byproducts.
It seems first you must recognize that the common factor in all of these sitatuations is you. What are you upset about? Why do you believe that you must pursue specific “truth” and “justice” with others directly? Direct, personal confrontation is simply too loose — no one has control over all the relevant angles on-the-spot.
However peace can be.
You must meditate.
Meditate constantly. Five times a day if necessary.
The answers for you are neither going to come from real time, keyed up, person to person improvisation, nor from constant analysis. It must arrive by peace — you are no good to anyone, let alone yourself, if you are not calm and collected.
So yes, get ahead of your conflicts through meditation.

Complete Reading
This week we pulled the Seven of Swords. You are stealing something but the reason isn’t out of a direct need. In fact, it seems that the deception is being caused by the friction of an internal conflict. The deceit is downstream from the causes — so, don’t focus on the thievery, you must go back upstream (against the current of your habits) and figure out what the source of all this nonsense is.
Our first hexagram this week is #19, Approach. We continually encounter repeated beginnings — the seasons are good example, or new relationships. Therefore we also continually encounter repeated middles and repeated ends. With the latter two it is results rather than possibilities that we contend with — so it is in the beginning of a phase (the beginning) that our accumulated intelligence should be applied (the widsom of preemption). There was one change this week, of which the specific notes are: good fortune can make one relax into the safety of that position; but it is a false safety (as things are always changing) — if that oversight happens once, fine, you learn — there is no excuse for it the same thing to happen again.
Our second hexagram, the one that suggests how best to meet the challenges (or the changes) is #11, Peace. The hexagram describes a time of great harmony, prosperity and amity. There are no caveats to the relation. “The light has a powerful influence, while the dark is submissive.”
