Hello,

I asked Yi Jing about what to expect on my thesis, and I got hex 29 (Water/Darkness) with changing line 3, transformed to 48 (the Well). It looks like it is going to be a difficult process working on it - perhaps in terms of the research itself, or dealing with supervisor... There can also be potentially a moment when there's nothing I do will change the situation, so might have to wait until the time is favorable again...?

I'm currently in the process of narrowing down the potential topics. I understand research is very time consuming, always need to study what have been done before I can come up with new ideas. Plus my thesis supervisor has been on sabbatical leave, so we have only communicated by emails so far. It would have been easier if I can talk to him in person.. While I'm waiting for him to get back to me with initial reading lists, I have been doing my own research, but lack of direction.

Any help with interpretation and advice will be much appreciated. Just would like to have some mental preparation...I started research last year on another topic (with another professor), but eventually had to quit it after 6 months of work as I found the topic a little bit too abstract. Other areas in life have been pretty disappointing lately, so I hope at least the thesis can change my life for better again no matter how difficult it will be.

Thank you

29.3 Certainly seems to mirror your situation with your thesis supervisor being away and you without guidance. Wilhelm comments, "we must wait until a way out shows itself." Sounds like you can't do much until then...but 48.The Well sounds promising for your success when you finally do have someone to encourage you at your work.

Hi Rosada,

Thank you for your help. Your interpretation gives me some hope again :). I really hope that I can finally get down to a topic that both my supervisor and myself will feel comfortable with.

There is indeed not much I can do at this moment...Regardless of how I really don't want to waste any more time, there are so many potential topics and I feel like my interests are all over the place. Perhaps my supervisor has been occupied with other things this week that he couldn't get back as he had promised.

I will wait and hope to hear something from him at the beginning of next week. I guess I will still do my own readings anyway... It may help pinpoint more specific areas that I'm really interested in. Will provide update on the situation as it progresses.

Thanks again & regards ;)
