I Ching Chapter 17: Following the Dao — Finding Alignment and Protection with Taoist Talismans
bwWisdom of I Ching Chapter 17 (随卦 – Following)
In the I Ching Zhampo (Chinese fortune-telling system), Chapter 17 is called “Following” (随, Sui). It teaches the principle of harmonizing with natural rhythms and aligning with the right path rather than forcing outcomes.
For modern people, this resonates with the struggles of:
-
Constantly feeling pressured to control everything in work and relationships.
-
Anxiety from uncertainty about career, health, or financial future.
-
Difficulty discerning when to lead and when to follow the flow of life.
The I Ching reminds us that true strength lies not in resistance, but in trusting the Dao—knowing when to yield, when to align, and when to act.
Problem → Emotion → Information → Action
-
Problem: Modern life creates stress through over-control and fear of “losing direction.”
-
Emotion: Feelings of insecurity, burnout, and lack of trust.
-
Information (I Ching Insight): Following is not passivity; it is wise alignment with cosmic order.
-
Action: Use Chinese mystical artifacts and Taoist spiritual tools as anchors of clarity, cultivating balance and confidence.
