The present is embodied in Hexagram 13 - T'ung Jen (Fellowship with Men): The union of me appears here in the remote districts of the country, indicating progress and success. It will be advantageous to cross the great stream. It will be advantageous to maintain the firm correctness of the superior man.
The second line, divided, shows the representative of the union of men in relation with his kindred. There will be occasion for regret.
The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject mounted on the city wall, but he does not proceed to make the attack he contemplates. There will be good fortune.
In the fifth line, undivided, the representative of the union of men first wails and cries out, and then laughs. His great host conquers, and he and the subject of the second line meet together.
The situation is shifting, and Yin (the passive feminine force) is gaining ground.
The future is embodied in Hexagram 26 - Ta Ch'u (The Taming Power of the Great): It will be advantageous to be firm and correct. If he does not seek to enjoy his revenues in his own family, without taking service at court, there will be good fortune. It will be advantageous for him to cross the great stream.
ha. No, I did not bother to recast after I had messed it up even more with emails. I just figured , I will stick to the original, but I have now made it a bit harder on myself. More baggage, more time and effort to recoup. I can try now, though, just for good measure: After complicating the conflict more with extra emails, what is the potential for healing this friendship now?So I guess you casted in the end of it?
I do have a history of talking too much during conflict: I cannot seem to refrain from adding things such as, "And another thing, why did you say such and such????" and then it gets worse and worse, and I wind up with a bigger problem than I had at the original fight.
You remind me of somebody...sigh
Gee, thanks for that, Ginnie. I had not heard that about line 3. That is very compelling. Yes, I think I must learn that I do not need to panic, when someone has a different opinion than my own. I always take it as a judgment, and get very defensive, very combative and over-sensitive. This may be the demon territory referred to---something which must be subdued within me. thanks once more!Your original reading said you both would have a reunion. I think that you will find that even though you two have differences, you don't have to fight over them.
By the way, it is the opinion of Bradford that when we get 63.3, the subduing of the Demon Country has already taken place. In other words, the arduous work is behind you.
You both just need some time to let the sting go out of the recent verbal hostilities.
Thanks for that, Dragona. Yes, Wilhelm is apt here. In small matters, there is the same tendency. I shall pay heed.It is the old story of the ego..if we can control that, we can do anything..but this happens only to often, I am afraid...and from the Wilhelm`s translation, I get the idea that it will take a lots of tactics to get on the good terms again. And then it may bring the friendship to a new level, perhaps more validate each others opinions.
For this reason, a correct colonial policy is especially important. The territory won at such bitter cost must not be regarded as an almshouse for people who in one way or another have had themselves impossible at home, but who are thought to be quite good enough for the colonies. Such a policy ruins at the outset any chance of success. This holds true in small as well as large matters, because it is not only rising states that carry on a colonial policy; the urge to expand, with its accompanying dangers, is part and parcel of every ambitious undertaking.
