We begin with Hexagram 48, Replenishing (The Well), exploring themes of depletion, shared resources, and what happens when energy is taken without renewal. As the reading changes into Hexagram 5, Needing, the focus turns toward patience, sincere nourishment, and caring for yourself before giving to others.

This is a calm, embodied reflection blending ancient I Ching wisdom with breath, awareness, and lived insight. It is not about prediction, but about recognising where you are depleted and how to restore balance, strength, and inner steadiness.

If you are feeling exhausted, over-giving, or called to return to your own source, this message may be for you.
