Hi, everybody! I am completely new here, and I'd like to discuss something I have experienced a few times. Being new, I apologize if you have discussed it before.
It happens that you are given a very positive hexagram with real encouraging changing lines, which leads you right into a dark, negative hexagram like 12 or 36, you absolutely don't want to enter. But I Ching just told you to go that way! My understanding is that when this happens, it means that something inside or outside of you is very likely going to keep things from the positive outcome IS in the recent situation anyway. How can you avoid storm when it happens? Should not follow the encouragement? Should follow and hope for the best? But maybe I get it all wrong. What do you think?
I totally agree that most hexagrams cannot be called positive or negative, good or bad, but still there are ones that are about real dark times. When 25.1 turned into 12 to a question of mine the other day, I got totally confused and didn't dare to do anything at all.
It is interesting what you say about the relating hexagram, I have never really thought about it before because my very first and still most liked book of I Ching told me to see the future in the relating hexagram. I am just starting to find my way with the I Ching, I just start to feel it, and looking back to my own reads, the relating hexagrams as "the sea within which the primary swims" just make some reads clear finally. But still a long road to take. (Of course, one cannot put the responsibility for their own acts on I Ching.)
My brain likes to take simple from A to B paths. *sigh*
thats good then, very 25.1 ish
