My question was: "Why haven't I gotten married yet?!
22.4
Yes exactly, you've got it right.I can see the foolishness in me paying attention to guys who weren't at all deserving of me, as major distractions
22.4 → 30 (Shining), Legge:
Shows one looking as if adorned, but only in white.
As if (mounted on) a white horse, and furnished with wings, (he seeks union with the subject of the first line),
while (the intervening third pursues), not as a robber, but intent on a matrimonial alliance.
It seems like you, and others here, are seeing the text of the line as describing Gaia fearing/doubting the "right one". The suitor-not-a-robber as someone to come. That is one valid take, of course. With Legge's translation this is reinforced because it is easier to see the 4th line being distracted from the right one (line 1) by the pursuing wrong one (3rd line). Without Legge's translation, all that reference is gone.
But, what if the Yijing is not talking about a third-party to come but about and to Gaia? What if the suitor-not-a-robber is not other than Gaia herself (she is a nice and fine suitor but somehow she's not been seing as such)? What if the answer points that even Gaia is starting to doubt of herself and the Yi is responding to that with a nice compliment and hope?
Of course, from a text-based perspective we couldn't say. From a WWG perspective, in 22zhi30 we have a total combination (good sign) becoming a total conflict (bad sign). How this is happening? In 22zhi30 the line representing her is Mao (wood) with the relative Husband attached (meaning she wants to marry a man) and the active line is Xu (earth, the tomb of wood) with Sibbling (either helpers or competitors); the active line moves in combination with the line representing her, but the changed line clashes with the line representing her. Something in her social enviroment is shacling her and ultimately hurting her chances to marry. But eventually, the helper/competitor (or a surprising help) will be efffective to open the tomb and release her. Then, the obstacles and delays she's facing would be overcome.
ps
The question was about the cause, the root. From a WWG perspective, the cause is found in the original active line 4th: the sibbling. The cause doens't lie in her; the cause doesn't lie in her partner; the cause is found in her social environment.
P.S. I would like to know what WWG Perpective means and how do I study it?
You and me both!! 12 years I’ve been without a partner and all I seem to meet are these types.......although there is no guy I'm ignoring or fearing...other than stalkers, mental abusers, head e gamers and players ahahaha
