There's a thread here, preceding the UC threads, on people's general ideas about uc hexagramsNot sure if this belongs here or in shared readings, but I wanted to discuss this phenomenon of patterns in casting, not a specific reading....
Mostly just speculation but what do you associate with a time of getting almost entirely unchanging Hexagram answers? 7 in a row over consecutive days!
This has happened this week and astrogeek in me can't help but notice it shifted along with Mars moving into Aries and general energies being more direct and potent.
Also can't help but personalize that maybe I've been a bit dense, and unchanging castings are Yi's way of THUNK - hitting the meaning over the enquirers head. Like a teacher throwing a whole book at a student who keeps asking for relevant passages
Anyways, anyone have experiences to share in this vein?
The question that receives an unchanging hexagram in response might be asking, in effect, ‘Why?’ or ‘What is behind this?’ There’s an underlying desire to know and be in touch with the guiding principle at work: to connect with whatever it is that you’re enacting, manifesting or serving.
This questioner has no relating hexagram (yet). They have no place to stand from which to relate to this; they don’t have a way or place for it to ‘fit in’. There’s no answer (yet) to the question, ‘Where is this all taking me?’ or ‘how is this unfolding?’
So they enter the reading with Hexagram 2, and to carry on and move through it, they need to bring this into balance with Hexagram 1. That’s a balance of being in service and willing to lend support (to a person, to an ideal, to an idea…), with their own personal creativity. It could be as simple as uncovering who they want to be or what they want to do in and of themselves, from their own intrinsic creative drive, that is not a function of anything or anyone else.
I agree, for the questioner, there is 'no relating hexagram (yet)' and partially with 'no answer (yet)' but they do have 'places to stand from which to relate'. A relating hexagram is not required: all is unchanging. The 'yet' does not exist here and will only apply to another time and place and not to the time and place of this question. In this time and in this place, for the querent asking this question, a relating hexagram would only bring a false perspective which in addition would be delivered too early.This questioner has no relating hexagram (yet).

I think what I find confusing here is the swapping of perspectives of receiving an unchanging hexagram; entering into your reading and arriving at your question. The sequence for me would beSo if you receive an unchanging hexagram, you entered into your reading through Hexagram 2, Earth. You arrive at your question like the mare: free-roaming, full of energy and spirit, and paying the closest attention to cues and guidance. You have a ‘direction to go’, a sense of purpose – often a very coherent one with great power and momentum of its own – but you are still in search of a ‘master’, a sense of how it might unfold. There is a confusion of possibilities, and you are waiting for a single beacon to emerge from it all.
Change Operators, always act independently of the hexagram identified, they are the power sources within with direct connection to the original source (hex 1 and 2). Unchanging hexagrams signify that the means of change is not yet ready to manifest itself. While an Unchanging hexagram may be accompanied by a full stop it could well be that those pesky Change Operators are still hard at work doing some Secret Squirrel work in the darker avenues and alleyways.2 as yang pattern might feel a bit like being presented with something as it is, not being required to feel anything/do anything about it. This is however going to be a very different experience with each hexagram and it's not possible to generalise too much. I always get the sense of a full stop when receiving uc hexagrams. 5uc Wait. Nothing much more to add to that, it doesn't require me to do anything other than to accept that and take on board the wisdom of that hexagram. It would be quite another thing to receive 49uc for example and that's partly why we have threads for people's own experiences with uc hexagrams.
Interesting, I never thought about that.I personally link the number/type of moving line to how much "space" there is for the situation to change and for me to influence it.
"Do what you can" as in "do all you want" or "you have limited influence on the subject"?When I get an unchanging hexagram I perceive it as if I was told: "This is it! Do what you can within the (limited) options you have".
One year I had an unchanging hex as my yearly cast, 12 UN exactlyWhen I get no moving lines, it seems to me that the current situation is pretty "static" (since I have no secondary hexagram that could shed a different light on possible evolutions).
It may be because the situation is already set and it will progress according its "natural" direction, or it may be because I have little (or no) influence on how it will develop.
