18.3.5 to 59 book idea

[post-snow]

hello.
as a relative newbie i would like to consult my reading with you.
i have an idea for a book (i have co-authored several books and recently finished another one myself - i got paid already although the release date is only june). they were published by various local publishers (basically the good side is they take care of everythng but of course they keep their share of money - these are nonfiction, not best sellers so i am not too worried).
i encountered a very interesting person that made me think about another book i could write. it might actually also sell pretty well if it has good marketing. i am thinking about self publishing so i am in control of everything and although i have to take care of the whole think it will all be mine.. i thought about it and asked the oracle and got 18.3.5 to 59.

i am now thinking about it and am not sure what it says. it speaks about corruption and such things which is confucing for me. i would go with "You will need to commit yourself to the journey and take the risk of crossing the great river into unknown territory." which i tend ti interpret as self publishing. maybe it also talks about thinking about the whole idea a bit more? can anyone please share what they think about this?

18.3.5 to 59 book idea​

Hi, Post-Snow


Basically,18.3.5>59 speaks of a situation where there is an open need to deal with something that is not working well (hex18) because there is a difficulty to let go, to disperse (hex59) something (ideas?...actions?) and consider a new way, a new approach for this book project. I think what is involved here is the manifestation of something,related to your ideas and convictions, about what you are going to experience for the first time ( ....?...marketing?....?) and the consequent shock with the present reality.

I think that in this divination you have mixed 3 intentions/suppositions and the result, with this triple uncertainty, doesn't seem very "encouraging".

Maybe meditating on each of these 3 intentions independently will help to clarify ideas about this new learning step you intend to start.

What do you think about something like this:

1st intention- you met someone who inspired you with an idea for a new book.
What can you know, with Yi's help, about this idea itself?

2nd intention- the book will be interesting for your audience, and all you need is marketing.

What can you know, with the help of Yi, about the potential interest of your idea for the target audience?


3rd intention- you want to take care of the whole process of promotion/marketing.

What can you know, with the help of Yi, about this desire to be the one in charge of marketing?

wow, thanks very much,

breakmov!​

The triple question might cause the reading ti be a bit confusing i will start with the first thing and talk to the woman who inspired me and will see what comes up next - it is possible that this might be something id rather not do! or need to fing another way to do.

i thought about it and asked the oracle and got 18.3.5 to 59.

Post-Snow: I'm curious, when you say 'I thought about it and asked ..." is there any specifics to that? Were you asking about the subject of the book (the 'idea')? Or about self-publishing?

Or is it more general than that: e.g. tell me about this book 'idea' (content, how to publish, how successful will it be, etc.)? I'm fine with general. more broad, more open queries, but it just made me curious.

Best, D

hello! just to update you, and thank you once again for your ideas! i was thinking about this at it might also be about the book subject itself (it should be a book about caring for older folks which is something that needs improvement).

i talked about the publisher of my first book which is out next month and they are very keen on publishing this one if i want. i have decided to wait how the whole process with the first one goes and then decide which route to take
maybe cast a jew reading. thank you for helping me!
