Seems to me like you relate every hexagram to a womans body and how it can be of use to a man - and it all seems to limit meanings in a most depressing way IMO.
well its funny how you two manage to get picture of suspenders belts in most of these threads - I can't wait for 38
Trojan:... Seems to me like you relate every hexagram to a womans body and how it can be of use to a man...

Oh, yes, it means that if you behave like a profitable woman you wil be found by somebody, maybe the correct guy. Among many another senses, of course.... if you are a woman doing a consultation finding profitable women doesn't mean much,
Maybe you have reason, maybe not all the naked women glows in the shadows. But Benedetti says so. Maybe we must read «hidden promise» instead os «naked woman». But when the woman is beloved she always shines....the glowing naked woman of 36 (according to you) doesn't amount to much meaning wise if you are a female with your own naked body that doesn't glow
Mind you, this is the mildest picture I could find in Google images...
Luis:...Mind you, this is the mildest picture I could find in Google images...
Toganm:Now all women are profitable . The real question is how one can profit from the virtue of the woman...
Hah you can't fool me you had to search google to find these, you just whipped the pair you were wearing off and scanned them in !
Trojan:... I can't wait for 38
門men2: door / gate
Synonymous of WOMAN, of course!
BTW I mentioned hex 38 because Luis has promised an interesting picture for it but won't give us a preview
Trojan:Ah I don't know how to reply Charly.
The truth is I'm too used to thinking of women as human beings rather than some kind of rare species that has special traits like constancy and so on.
And profitability ? The woman in 37, or rather the one has the role of caring for what is 'inner' in the situation brings abundance to the family through her nurturance and care which is different to me than the idea of profitability which implies she is a commodity. In other words I see the qualities of what is called the woman here as paying attention to needs and sustenance in the situation.
In 37 each attends to his/her own role in the structure - but you seemed to describe the idea of buying in a useful woman, a profitable woman, but I see the woman as making the profit through her skills in the care of this family/situation.
The lines 2 and 4 describe how the woman brings increase to the home. But obviously this need not refer to a woman at all, just a kind of role in the situation.
Probably I take your interpretations too literally (though maybe not )
But if you taking the 'being inside' of 37 as 'being inside a woman' what you do is erase the woman from the picture altogether inasmuch as she is only a receptacle for the man and i don't think that really is the picture of the woman in 37.
Oh yes BTW if you can bring the mans body more frequently into your interpretations I would be most obliged - it would add a whole new dimension for me - i may even glow in the dark

I'm assuming you all are intentionally personifying those overindulged whims and passions 37.1 warns us about?
Very amusing - not.
Now back in the house before your dad gets home!
Rosada:Charly, Do I understand it correctly that the Chinese characters for 37.1 are saying something about being "idle" can cause one to "perish"? Then would that mean 37.2 is the opposite, something about being very busy?
The previously quoted are modern uses for 閑xian, mainly as an adjective, but maybe the syntax requires a noun. (*)

(*) Maybe a good idea to consult Schluesser, maybe Luis, Harmen or Bradford could aport some light?
Rosada:"When tempers flare up in the family," nothing is as yet lost.
"When woman and children dally," the discipline of the house is lost.
-Wilhelm
The cronopios... those disordered and lukewarm beings, leave the loose memories by the house, between glad shouts... and when one passes running, they caress him with smoothness and they say to him: "you do not go to hurt you", and also: "Take care with the steps".
Julio Cortazar translated by Babelfish (1)
This is the reason why the houses of the Famas are ordered and quiet, whereas in those of the Cronopios there are great racket and doors that strike.
Julio Cortazar translated by Babelfish (2)
In his first entry, Schuessler pairs 閑 with 閒 : 閑閒 for "Be moving slowly, lazy"...
If I understand well, Schuessler says that 閑 = 閒, both meaning «be moving slowly, lazy»
Thanks, Luis:No, the in the dictionary is paired together, like a compound word with that meaning...
[/INDENT]閑 and 閒 are now used interchangeably but, in the past, they had well defined and separate meanings. So, regarding the text of the Yijing, we should not play them interchangeably to derive semantic meanings beyond their own intrinsic scope.
