Hi All
I agree that there is a very lucky if you will like element to this line like a blessing from the sky. Then everything is at your feet ...quite possibly a majical event to this part of your life that is bothering you like you find your solution

Ginnie, I liked this post of yours very much. But I have been overweight since I was a child, and the causes are mostly in the past. I don't think they are relevant to changing the problem today.Maybe Tiger already knows what he wishes for instead, what he wishes to create. For example, I know that he is in business, but my secret belief is that Tiger is actually an artist. Maybe he wishes to make something of his photography or another art form?
Right, 50.5 is something stable and lasting. But 44.5 is a thing of great beauty that causes a transformation. A catalyst in Chemistry causes a transformation, and often gets used up in the process.do you think so ? I'm not at all sure about that, hasn't been my experience anyway. A ripe fruit might fall easily but it also spoils easily., decays quickly. I think what falls easily in 44.5 can turn out to be something one is only interested in for a short period of time., not something of lasting value. The lasting value is in 50.5 not in 44.5 IMO

The interest in the catalyst itself may not last but the change may be permanent.

I wonder if the 'thing of great beauty' is in all translations, don't quite understand the meaning of 'beauty' here. Maybe its something that feels like a real blessing., but i do think its something that gets 'used up' in the 50 cooking pot/process as you say

Years ago I had a business client. Once when we were in the same room together for about five hours, my body became so hot that several old warts actually melded right off my body! I am not kidding! This is a true story! I asked Yi about this at that time and got #44.5 > 50.
So, I said out loud, "Oh, no, you don't. I'm a married woman." I terminated the business relationship, you see -- and took to eating chocolate instead. (Chocolate doesn't get rid of warts, though.)
your warts fell off ? how seductive
I want to do almost everything I can, if only to perfect it and abandon it. I subscribe to Robert A. Heinlein's view of what makes up a man.
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

I don't believe in past causes anymore. If you were overweight as a child and are still overweight as an adult, then the causes are still here, in the present.
I think we were all raised that life means to sacrifice. Maybe we cannot get out of the larger sacrifices, because those were understood to be iron-clad agreements. But by the time we are in our fifties and sixties, we undergo a change and are no longer willing to sacrifice -- our treats.
I myself was a chubby child. I think this was because the home environment was really strict and controlled. It never once occurred to me to take pleasure in the flow of life itself, because that was too tightly regulated. But a wonderful golden corn muffin from the deli -- or riding my bike to go buy a Carvel sundae -- need I say more?
Looked at another way:
There is something in this refusal to sacrifice that is enormously healthy and life affirming.
The real sacrifice is when we sacrifice our health through eating rubbish.
I'm not saying Tiger eats rubbish...just wondering about your idea of sacrifice here...and going pretty off topic i guess
I don't fast regularly, I fast when I must, to regain my sanity.Is there a supplement that reduces the need for sitting in front of a computer?
Maybe the computer is the temptation, not the food. After all, Tiger said he fasts regularly.
The Internet is more enthralling than food. One sits, only to discover one day that one has lost one's health.
Near Constant Encounters with the InternetGetting H50 as the relating hex, I am wondering what the H50 represents in your case. Sometimes the relating hex is clearly the cause, rather than a potential result, of the primary hexagram.
I have a couple of times gotten H50 to signify a computer. That's why I mention being a slave to the computer, a sedentary lifestyle, as perhaps a primary reason for being overweight?
