You really don't want to know

4D Chess .. for sure.

And short lived at the most enjoyable moment?

Say you are planning a birthday party. The yang phase would be the planning and build up to the great day - putting energy in to make arrangements, buy presents, inviting guests and so on. The day itself is the most energetic (old yang) but short lived and followed by the recovery period which would be the yin phase. Not a great example but the best I can do off the top of my head

My approach to understanding moving lines is from the basis that by combining yin and yang in pairs you get four types of lines. Old yang (yang/yang), old yin (yin/yin), young yang (yang/yin) and young yin (yin/ yang). If you take an example from nature like the phases of the moon. The full moon would be represented by the old yang - moving line, and the new moon by the old yin - moving line. Realistically an full moon last just one day or at a stretch three days to notice the difference, same with the new moon where you get an old crescent, a dark moon and then a new crescent - so that's six days out of the 28 day lunar cycle. This leaves 22 days divided into 11 waxing and 11 waning. So the moving old yin and old yang lines refer to a short lived maximum or minimum phase - while the young lines refer to a more apparently stable period of growing light or decreasing light. However it is a fact that changing is occurring all through the cycle - it is just not as apparent because the at the maximum and minimum there is a reversal while in the waxing an waning phases it is very similar day on day for 11 days. Another example would be a sine wave with very obvious peaks and troughs - in between a slow climb up and a slow climb down. Although the rate of change is actually constant - the apparent change at the extremes is much more obvious. Hope this makes sense

Hi, That was very interesting. One thing I was not sure about though, was that you seem to take the 'imbalance' of the moving line as a negative thing. But the fullness of the maximum or minimum state, like a full moon or the summer solstice, while it does indicate there is only one way to go i.e. decrease ... surely this is still part of the natural flow of things and not necessarily negative. ???

Of course you are ...

The blond one is quite fit though.

They can do that without being a bunch of twats.

It might be because the UK is falling apart. I don't give a f**k about Corbyn by the way.

I'm an animal?

Overly jolly idiots.

I was very impressed how a bunch of posh people in suits swigging fine ale were standing up for the dispossessed and marginalised in society. Hope they enjoy their salaries and expenses to the full.

But you enjoy it
