Good evening. This will be a bit complex so bear with me. I asked the Yi 2 questions pertaining to the same person. The second question below is one I asked today; the other was recently.
___

How does this man see me? 31.5 >62.

What could this mean mean TO ME? 37.1.5>52.

That's the Q/A. Now my analysis.

___

31.5 -- Wooing. "Thus the universal mutual attractioin between the sexes is represented. In courtship, the masculine principle must seize the initiative and place itself below the feminine principle." Generally speaking he sees me as attractive. So far so good. HOWEVER. Line 5, being a changing line, overrides the generality of that statement. But I can't make sense of the line in this context.

Line 5 : The influence shows itself in the back of the neck. No remorse.
Influencing one's neck. [Lifting one's head and stretching the neck implies purpose and preparedness.]" ... (he sees me as purposeful and prepared?)

Hex 62: weakness, excess Yin. Tread carefully, allow feelings full expression, but don’t pour resources into the grave.

62 .."is about 'passing, going by, exceeding'. The central idea is crossing a line - whether that's a standard of morality or of customs, or a border in time (such as the change of the year)... tends to describe transitions: complete this crossing, go beyond what's familiar or expected, and you'll find yourself in a whole new landscape.

"You can't make the transition called for in Hexagram 62 on the basis of your personal strength and power to bring about change; you have to do it as a small person, one who responds and adapts to a bigger reality even as she travels."

In sum, would this mean he finds me attractive but is afraid to approach?

___

Second reading: What could he mean for me? 37.1.5. and 52.

I have to say as a longterm (now) single female, I saw this hex and saw exclamation marks in front of my eyes (!!!). Family? Is that right?

The Judgement - The Family. The perseverance of the woman furthers. (this is not good. I'm not the pursuant female type...or rather, I dont want to be. Its way too easy to be, and I think it upsets the natural order of things).

Line 1: Being restrained to one's own house/safety/seclusion. And "A noble man has substance through words and perseverance through actions: can also be translated as: his words have substance and his actions have perseverance."

Line 5: There need be no anxiety; there will be good fortune.
A king is the symbol of a fatherly man who is richly endowed in mind. He does nothing to make himself feared; on the contrary, the whole family can trust him, because love governs their intercourse. His character of itself exercises the right influence.
They associate with one another in love.

Hex 52: Thus the superior man Does not permit his thoughts To go beyond his situation.

Therefore, he could be my future husband, but it is not my place to even let my mind GO THERE.
___

If the second reading is more or less accurate, I dont get why the Yi would give you an image of family and then say "dont think about it." Ideas?

Idea! 37.1. HE is restrained by his house? Maybe he has a family??? but then that contradicts line 5 good fortune.

I am hoping someone will tell me i am way off and this reading is not even close to hopeful... (OK i'm really hoping someone will tell me i'm right and there IS hope!!)

Okay I think you're way off :D Firstly do you know this person or is he someone you've just seen ? I'm asking because you don't know if he has a family...which suggests you don't know him well. Hmm to my mind how far the relationship has already got is crucial. If you don't know him and you are thinking of him in terms of him giving you a family then er are you are getting a tad carried away yes ?

Hmm 31.5 I take as not being very moved, something that does not affect one very much...but I have very little experience of the line.. Changing to 62 also gives the sense of something insignificant...so I'd see the answer as perhaps hes not having any particulary strong feelings around you...not that he doesn't have any but that he isn't particularly roused to action.

Re37.1.5 "What could he mean for me ?" I think thats impossible to say without real life context. 37 isn't just about a literal family though it can be. Can just be about where you feel you belong and if you don't know him could refer to you remaining within the relationships you're already at home in.

Asking about relationships that don't exist yet can be very tricksy...beware.

If you do already have a relationship with him then 37.1.5 might be read differently...but if you don't I wouldn't pin hopes on this reading...or any reading ....

Anyhow I can't either raise your hopes or crush them....probably better to ask after you get to know him

31:5>62 means he, or you, or both, fancy the other, but just won't go there.
End of story, the urge will be suppressed.

Because of the 37 lines, i guess he's got somebody else already?
If you don't know, then that's why the urge will be suppressed.
He'll stay with her.

If you know he's single, that might mean you need to apply discipline to him.
Strong discipline.
And then he will be yours.

Diamanda, a huge curtsy and hats off to you for the replies :). I confess, no, I don't know this person very well. We see each other often, say hello, but don't have a relationship (can I add "yet"?) I have inquired about his status and the consensus seems to be that he is single at the moment, that he had been with someone but that is over. But i have not heard that from HIS mouth, as we're not on those terms where I could ask him directly.

I'm trying to guage if this is something I could make a small move towards or better to keep my distance and forget about it. I know...fantasizing is a terrible terrible thing! I'm going to try to find out more...

If he is single, what does more discipline mean? Meaning more attention, tiny steps, sort of putting myself in his path more, or ...??

Is there a(nother) question I could ask the Yi to get more clarity on this? (?)
