From Opera Omnia

"And while we wander far from our fatherland and abide in this night and darkness of our present life, we must make use of that which turns us aside to the senses, for which reason we think many things rather than know them."

Write out your birthdate as a string. i.e. 01151962 for January (01) 15th, 1962
2. Add up the sequence of numbers i.e. 0+1+1+5+1+9+6+2=25
3. If the resulting number has more than one digit, add that sequence i.e. 2+5=7
4. The top trigram is based on this number, find the associate trigram name below:

 
Trigrams
1. Li / Fire
2. K’un / Earth
3. Chen / Thunder
4. Sun / Wind
5. if male - K’un / Earth
6. if female - K’en / Mountain
7. Ch’ien / Heaven
8. K’en / Mountain
9. K’an / Rain

I have a clear picture in my mind of these types after reading this book and recently I find evidence everywhere bearing witness to their existence.  For instance I just read an essay by Hans Richter where he describes a form of documentary film he tends towards - Film Essays.  Describing them, he says:

"In its effort to make visible the the invisible world of imaginations, thoughts, and ideas the essayistic film can tap into an incomparably larger reservoir of expressive means than the pure documentary film. One is not bound in the film essay to the representation of external appearances or to a chronological sequence. On the contrary, one must pull together the material for view from everywhere and for this reason one can jump throughout space and time: for example from the objective representation to the fantastic allegory and from here to an acted out scene."

It’s compelling in its immediacy and seems to me despairing but true. Of course it all depends on who you think God is and whether you ignore (or take issue with) the masculine pronouns used for God.

Let Everyone Cry Out to God
“Let everyone cry out to God and lift his heart up to him, as if he were hanging by a hair, and a tempest were raging to the very heart of heaven, and he were at a loss for what to do, and there were hardly time to cry out. It is a time when no counsel, indeed, can help a man and he has no refuge save to remain in his loneliness and lift his eyes and his heart up to God, and cry out to him. And this should be done at all times, for in the world a man is in great danger.”
