I mean if a person is really humble they wouldn't go around shouting about how humble they are would they ?
But if 15.6 doesn't contain the notion of over-proclaiming your own humilty/integrity, then is it just not in the I Ching at all?
Oh it is in the I Ching, in 61.6.
'Cockcrow rises to heaven.
Constancy, pitfall.' ( Hilary's book)
I do too! I wonder if he'd be more comfortable selling them online at first rather than in a real market in person? Like on Etsy or something? Maybe I'm just saying that because now I'd like to see the things, lol.Hope he does.
15.6 isn't about shouting "I am humble". My query over there was about why people say they are humbled when complimented.
Would you generalize and say that when we get 15.6 in readings it's safe to assume it's meant in a favorable way, as good self esteem used productively
well yes I think so....I mean it does say "fruitful to set armies marching" or something so it isn't a time to doubt yourself I don't think.
BTW do you have Hilary's book ? If you don't I recommend it. I like the commentary of hers on 15.6 but am too lazy today to copy it out....so get the book if you don't have it already.
It would probably be interesting to look at all the line sixes, and see how many of them mean "going entirely too far" vs. how many are more like 15.6.
Dobro did this some time back in this thread. A great thread IMO

Only this week I visited a friend who had made all kinds of carved objects, all with a unique purpose to use around the home....His wife and daughter were trying to persuade him to take them to market. I went and had a look, he had made beautiful useful things all from wood he found.....I was blown away that he was too shy, too vulnerable to rejection to take them to market. I had never seen such vulnerability in his face before. He would like to sell them as he loves the work of making them much more than his day job.
He said he thought anyone could make what he'd made. We said 'no they can't and even if they could they don't'. If he has this skill, then if 15 were hypothetically applied, he would accept and use it as it is. Not diminish it or over rate it.....just be true to what he is and can do.
