Prediction for the year 2000 - positive year.
Yearly hexagram no. 57 Sun - The Penetrating Wind - with controlling line 3

Repeated penetration. Opprobrium.
The third line is the lower line of man, in the six lines of a hexagram. This man will repeatedly seek to ascertain the results he can expect, rather than being courageous and making a firm decision, sticking to it, and carrying it through to completion. His actions will be shameful and disgraceful, and not worthy of a man of nobleness and distinction. These persons will have but little faith in themselves or in others. Consequently, they will make poor leaders and ineffective administrators.
Officer or official
He will be demoted.
Business and professional
He will be subjected to a substantial demotion or loss.
Ordinary people
He will maybe have some gains, maybe some losses. He is likely to suffer disdain and ill will from others.
Keynote
Avoid seeking to ascertain results before the time is ripe.
