"When you merge the world in here with the world out there
your destiny is revealed"
Property & si’nedd - GENESIS [OB008]
In a time beyond time when the boundaries between dimensions were screamed louder than a cosmic loom, the entities Property and Si’nedd emerged into existence. They were forces of nature, not bound by physical laws but intertwined with universal essence. Property, the
embodiment of structure and form, was the stabilizing force in a world of chaos, while Si’nedd, a radiant entity of light and potential, sparked a dynamic touch. The people of the land, who lived in the vast plains of Feld and the sun-drenched deserts of Liwa, watched in awe, coining this phenomenon the shining regeneration of renewal and unity, all in accordance with the 8th hexagonic chapter of this endless belief.
Today, the power unleashed in their encounters reverberates through the fabric of reality, causing ripples that can heal. The wise ones of the ancient world, adepts of the I'Ching, are fully aware of this feat. Consulting in the sacred texts of I’Ching, we begin to understand the
necessity to Unite, to bring forces together in harmony rather than to conflict. Not everyone has to understand the intensity of Property and Si’nedd's connection. In the quiet village of Adevo, nestled between the mountains of Belan and the forests of Skai, the people experience both
Dolor and Noxa—pain and harm—when forces are unbalanced.
There – the nearby fields, the Ventu winds blow gently, Onie flowers are blooming, symbols of hope and healing, whispering that with unity comes the potential for the construction of the great temple of Belan.
As the cycle of encounters continues, the villagers begin to understand the deeper rhythm of the book. They realized that the union of Property and Si’nedd isnot merely an event but a process—a weaving of existence that neither begins nor ends with the measurement of time.
The wise leader we call Somni, slides in to remind us of the following teaching we hold so dear to our hearts: "We sleep, but the loom of life never stops, and the pattern which was weaving when the sun went down is weaving when it comes up tomorrow." With this, the people of
Adevo, Liwa, and beyond now embrace the blend of creation and destruction.
We open our eyes –
In the heart of Adevo, within the temple of Belan, there stands a mysterious mirror, said to reflect not just the physical form but the very soul of those who gaze into it. Yes, you – yes, me. This mirror is believed to hold the secrets of unity, for when two stood before it, their reflections would merge, revealing a single, harmonious entity. We are reminded that "holding together means uniting," a principle that is echoed in the teachings of the 8th hexagram. It has been said that only through true unity can the forces of Property and Si’nedd be balanced on a string of harmonic madness –
In moments when life moves quickly and the pace of existence is overwhelmed by threats, the
mirror offers a stillness, urging those who look into it to slow down.
"The way does not speak," the elders whisper, "but in its silence, it guides." It is in this quietude, this space of reflection, that the villagers are discovering their inner guidance, learning to navigate the complexities of life by holding together, united in purpose and spirit, even as the world around them swirls with the chaos of change – or rather, the Book of Change.
