The Gaian Dragon I Ching Calendar : Week of Success
FAME Original Movie Trailer and Theme Song 1982
The Gaian Dragon I Ching Calendar
Success is the product of perseverance, and adherence to Truth
Breakthrough begins in the mind. Encourage Friendship. Be a true Friend. Be alert to Adversity. Let Love be your Guide. Success does not feed upon Conflict
Preparation is everything. Choose assistants with care. Do not feed Opposition. Ignore naysayers. Create with vision. Use Power sparingly
Demonstrate faith in your abilities by using them
The Image
Make things happen Rise to the occasion Understand prevailing attitudes Illuminate the sky
The Inside
Do not begin before you are ready. The Dragon is not fooled. Avoid friendships which carry a price. Be Aware. Do not allow your attitude to generate mistrust. Be Real. Realize when there is nothing you can do to improve a situation, and leave quietly. Pay attention. The Dragon uses Love to work the Magick that unites people. Those who do not belong will leave, your friends will remain. Supreme Good Fortune! Using conflict to solve your problems, can only lead to future conflicts. Be Aware!
The Outside
Before you can use the pot, it must be cleaned. Be sensible. The Butterfly looks around. Pursue your Goals earnestly, but remember to follow the Middle Way. Meditate. Complete your commitments despite insults, and other difficulties. No blame. The Bees guard the hive. Restrain trouble by stalling and delaying it. Be Aware. The Dragon flies through space. A great leader serves as a catayst, teaching through example and deed. Supreme Good Fortune! Consolidate your position after succeeding with leverage, then take a rest. Meditate.
The Lines
Top : All situations serve to Enlighten those who are devoted to the Truth. Supreme Good Fortune!
5 : The Dragon can be seen by all. Make certain that Truth is available to those who sincerely seek it. Be Aware.
4 : The Bees guard the hive. Make no mistake. Refrain from idle competition with your neighbors. Grow up!
3 : The Wise make sacrifices for their integrity. A fool hoards the wealth that he has. Be Real.
2 : The Butterfly looks around. Hard workers are essential for large projects. Think!
1 : Avoid evil people. Assume nothing about the future. No blame.

Priorities
Orinoco Flow (Sail Away) - Enya (with lyrics)
You are probably familiar with the story of the teacher giving a presentation for his class with a large glass jar. He began by filling the jar with large rocks. He asked the class, if it was full, and they said it was. Next he added lots of pebbles to the jar, shaking it a bit, so that they fit themselves between the large rocks. Again, he asked the class if the jar was full, and the class said that it was. Finally, he poured in a lot of sand, again filling the large glass jar.
Then he explained to the class what he was doing. The jar represented your life. The large rocks represented the most important things you will ever do in life. The pebbles represented stuff that you need to do, in order to sustain yourself. The sand represented stuff that might seem important now, but ten years from now, it won't make one bit of difference, whether you did it or not.
He finished his presentation by pointing out that if you begin by filling the jar of your life with sand, that there will never be room to put anything important in your life. How sad that would be!
You don't appear to be doing anything when you meditate. However, the practice will make your mind calm & clear, and help keep your body healthy. That's got to amount to quite a bit over time...
There are many ways of going about doing things. Some will save you a lot of time and effort, so look for those! Always think things out before you do anything. That alone should cut the time you spend doing things in half!
In a complex project, some things need to be done, before others can be started. That is the Order of Operations. Knowing the Order of Operations, will save you from the Curse of Downtime, where everything is brought to a complete halt, because something that is needed, isn't available for use.
Some things can be done at the same time that other things are being done. This is Multi-tasking. Having as many things being done simultaneously as possible, always speeds up production. If you were cooking, and needed to boil some water, would you stand there watching the pot?
The more good reasons you have for doing something, the higher it should be on your List of Priorities. You may also find that taking a single action, will further progress on several different fronts at the same time. This is Multi-layering. When you are organized, you will take fewer steps in the process of getting things done. A solid principle from Taoist philosophy, is to appear to be doing nothing, yet to get everything done.
At the end of your life, if your jar is one third full of big rocks, one third full of pebbles, and one third full of sand, then you've done alright...
