I asked:
What is the best future for my relationship with my ex (father of my kids)
48 unchanged.

I'm not very sure how to interpret this...
Does it mean we can be a source for each other, but we must be careful?

In relationships what is the meaning of a 48?

Thanks!

From bradford:
"The noble young one, accordingly,
labors for the people to encourage cooperation"

Probably "cooperation" is the answer...

"What we are able to draw out and take away from these centers is a function of our reach and our grasp, our understandings and comprehensions, our buckets and our ropes, our memories and our new questions."

And there is something we have in common, like the well to the community: our parenthood.

A well is very fixed in one place. I would say that whether or not the well can nourish you has to do with the "ropes" and the "bucket" you use. These are metaphors for how one accesses the waters of life and meets one's social needs. It is said that if you break the bucket or the rope is too short, misfortune will result. Nevertheless, the water is there in the well if you access it properly.

A short reply here, then I may be able to notify you with the rest. But, I have a problem here, and it may be the same problem you have in trying to interpret this. Correct me if I am wrong but I think you have been asking about this before. Maybe not, maybe it was about the other situation completely, but I would like to have a review of that and see what is going on with this. You do not want to ask multiple questions about the same subject.

As such, it appears to me here that the I Ching is telling you that human needs always remain the same. We all need something from ourselves and from each other. Therefore, the basic needs of the relationship have not changed, even if the status has. The judgment says, "The town can be changed, but the well cannot. Your relationship with your ex has changed, but there are still basic needs that you both have.

At this point I will shut up and notify you of anything else.

I never asked this.
I asked what was the potential for a reconciliation (19.1 > 7).
I asked what should I do NOW about him (12 unchanged).
What is the diagnosis of the relationship NOW (59.4.6 > 47).

This was in a space of a couple of months, with things changing as the time goes by.
Then I thought: I would love to have a prediction. Ok, i realize it is dum. But I am human.
And I got this message.

What do I feel? Confused. Why? Because of the family. If I was alone, I don't think I would be very confused. But the kids, you know? The project we had together. Raising these two amazing boys...
