Is this just wishful thinking folks? All input is welcome!
Warmest regards

My two cents:
55 isn't just about reaching peaks and things being on the wane although of course it can mean that. I've found 55 to be quite a deep, profound Hexagram in the sense that we often get stuck on the peak and trough symbolism while losing the deeper aspects. It's also about abundance, richness and complexity - even a sense of being overloaded in our thought patterns. So, it can often be about securing what you have and letting go - easing back and making that decision to do so - now.
Line 4: I see this as saying let things happen in there own time. You are stressing and causing unnecessary blockage. Let it roll and things will find there own rhythm. Ditch anxiety but keep discernment.
Line 5: Don't look too closely at things and don't be tempted to force things. There still seems to be some growing to do for your relationship so don't suffocate your own joy when and where you can find it. Let go and your differences will flow into each other and adapt accordingly.
63: Everything is in the right place for growth.
That's my take on it.
This hexagram is about living in and enjoying the NOW. And that doesn't just mean a precious few minutes before everything turns dark, either. I think that's where a misconception has crept in.
.The text says to not be sad. I have found that I'm usually sad when I get this hexagram, so the advice about sadness may even make me feel -- more sad. If this is what happened to you, too, then welcome to the club
You were thinking that your relationship must be coming to its natural end (63) at this time, because you have outgrown it ... and it's all too much, just thinking about this, whether to continue, whether to try to end it ... whether it's still the right relationship for you ... given the aspects that have changed. Yet, the 'toomuchness' may exist mainly in your own mind.
You've received really great lines, MyLadyThunder, which leads me to believe you have nothing to worry about. Really. Whenever you need to know something more about your changing situation, you will meet people who will help you.
Thank you for reminding me Patro He certainly has his flaws but your words are so true. He's been steady as a rock for me through some very dark times indeed.my one cent opinion is... he is the right man for you.
he is the one that are helping you in a dark time of your life.
I don't want to say to much... but it seams that this relation will end in a marriage.
congratulation!
let me know any change
55 is a warning that selfish actions on the part of the parties will spell failure in love. But for marriage, it is quite good, if you want to go that way. Love and marriage in ancient China are two different things, and you can't mix up the two as marriage is not a vehicle of love necessarily. It is institution for dynastic, political, and economic reason. As for 63, it says that you can have success in love, but change will come if you delay your response. For marriage, it is auspicious.
Line four and five in 55 are very good for you. I would say that any incapacity you feel may be misleading you from someone who is quite good for you.
the beginning of the end ?
Very soon (I hope) Hilary's I Ching will be published. The best one as far as I know! Her interpretations are based on lots of readings.Yes, I get hex 55 much better now. I don't have any books on the yi -yet, I'm planning on buying one real soon-
That was my take on it, originally. Now I'm not so sure anymore.
Of course, NOT.
Give me a little of time and I will post you the chinese text with a rough literal translation and you will see by your own eyes.
You'r asking not only for the meanings of H.55 > H.63, you'r also asking for advice.
FIRST THE ORACLES:
Trust me, the following is prettyu literal:
H.55
EXHUBERANT (1) FEAST
KING BORROWS IT.
SUITABLE MIDDAY
Exhuberance is the celebration of abundance. Kings have abundance, but, like all, borrowed. With suitable midday the oracle is saying you good to have clarity, good to understand it. All in our lives is borrowed, even kings have their goods borrowed, their capital towns are transitory. Good to know it.
55.4
EXHUBERANT THAT SHADE
MIDDAY SEEING STARS
MEETING WITH ONE'S WILD MASTER (2)
LUCKY
Exhuberant in the night, seeing sars in the midday, of course, what happens in the night determines how one see things in the day, if you understand me. You'll find a something wild master, not a prince, but somebody that knows how to shoot arrows. The night will not last forever, neither the midday, only take the good of each cycle, you know how, you've already done it.
55.5
COMING SEAL (3)
HAVE TO CELEBRATE REPUTATION.
LUCKY
A sign will come (an issue from the oracle), maybe a new chapter in your life.
Be loyal to yourself, make honor to your reputation. This part needs a commentary: H.55 is FIRST FIRE AND THEN THUNDER, what's your nickname? No casual. You'r a THUNDER, much fire and energy, make honor to yourname, don't despair.
H.63
ALREADY CROSSED, CELEBRATE [THE] LITTLE.
PROFITABLE OMEN.
AT THE BEGINING LUCKY, END FUZZY.
After completion said W/B. Do you understand ? There is no true END, things are no clear, that's all. And the omen is PROFITABLE.
h.63 is FIRE BELOW, WATER ABOVE.
Water can extinguish fire (women are stronger than men) but under adequate circumstances fire can do water boil. REmember that THUNDER is called THE AROUSING.
All oracles are fortunate, even more for true love (4).
IF YOU STILL NEED ADVICE I WILL POST IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Only that I need more accuracy about Mr. X, no matters what, every detail will be good. Did he moved to your home? Is he paying half the amount of the bills? Are you lending him money? What sort of things have you negatiated with him? If you escort him in the weekend party, who will pay ?
Meanwhile, don't expect he must chage following your changes. Don't try to do of him a double of yourself. Differences make things interesting. If both are willing to make the effort, good, if somebody is making more effort or even sacrifice is maybe time of fixing up some things.
Yours,
Charly

(1) ABUNDANCE, it was also the name of the first Zhou Capital, not an important town, but a little military post in the revolt against Shangs.
(2) Or Archer Master, say a good man for shooting arrows. The character that I render WILD depicts an archer or a barbarian foreigner.
(3) Or coming chapter (of a book), say another stage.
(4) If it is true love, don't worry, if not, true lowe will arrive to you, maybe fallen from the sky.
Very soon (I hope) Hilary's I Ching will be published. The best one as far as I know! Her interpretations are based on lots of readings.
