12. Standstill
A lack of flow, isolation. A time to hold on to integrity, even when nothing is going your way.
Heaven and earth pass each other by, never touching. In a time like this, the Noble One protects himself through restraint — he isn't tempted by glittering things, nor does he fight a wind blowing the wrong way.
If you run into a wall, don't beat against it. Withdraw inward and wait for a better moment.
What values do I need to hold on to right now, even if no one around me appreciates them?
