Hello MeltingPot 47!
I'd see hexagram 25 as Simple Correctness. So how to have a successful romantic relationship? 49.3 says untimely advance leads to misfortune & danger; and you have to wait until the "revolution" is spoken three times. The advice is to not jump into relationships; but to wait and see if the connection can turn into something lasting and satisfying. In 49.6 the noble one transforms basically instead of just changing her face. Don't advance now, but remain persistent in doing necessary changes.
Don't forget that 49 speaks about seasons: " Within the lake, fire -- this symbolizes Revolution. The superior man makes a calendar, clearly arranging the seasons. [Liu]". The revolution needs timely actions.
Good luck!
MeltingPot, I didn't mean at all that you shouldn't think about romance because of the world situation! If you gave me the cast at any time my interpretation was the same; and in my eyes it's more of a personal Revolution; be it inside you, in the way you communicate to others, etc.There is a lot going on in the world right now, everything is pretty unstable and unsettled so not the best time to be thinking of romance... but I guess it’s just one of those things that’s always been important to me at my core... to love and be loved.
