5.2.6. Waiting

[moss elk]

So, I am waiting to hear back about some civil service jobs.
Perhaps it wasn't the best question to ask but, it is really what i want to know:

Will they be contacting me soon?
5.2.6 (37)

The answer seems something of a 'yes, wait for it."
But then again, that is what i am hoping to hear.

Any thoughts?

My first thought was they will be offering this position to someone in-house (line 6, returning home). I hope I'm wrong here but either way, with patience, things work out for you.

To me, it is saying, "don't put all of your eggs in one basket". There is a chance this may not work out despite your efforts (line 6), and if it does, it will take some time to accomplish what you desire (line 2). Hex 37 seems to be saying, strive towards shaping your world so that what you seek naturally begins to fit in. Openness to options, patience and diligence seem to be the key attributes here.

I later received 5.6 today and as is often the case, the guests who arrived were me in the form of states of mind and activities, which came unexpectedly.

However sometimes the guests come from outside. The thought that came to me regarding your reading was that the position(s) that come available are not the ones you applied for, but came unexpectedly and with more potential than they first appear.

Hello friend:

The hexagram code of Hex 37 says "If a lady divines something, she will have good luck." So in my opinion, if you are a girl, you will have good luck. If not, I am not sure if you will hear back about this job.

I feel the problem here is that you want to know something very specific (will I get this job?) but formulate your question in a more general way and now the reading is confusing. Sticking to your reading I think yes, they will contact you - but what is "soon"? I feel it will not be as soon as you need it to be, but it will come.

That's your reading. All other considerations about getting or not the job would be a different question, imo.

We, all of us in this thread, might be the visitors in line 6!

Wish you good luck on getting this job!

Thank you for pointing out the simpler and more specific question.
I asked, "Will i get this job?"
And received 55 unchanging.

Will update later.

Can I ask is this something totally different from this you asked about a while ago ?

What happened with that ?

Yes, that test was the first of five that I took.
I am on the list(s) to be called in. Haven't been contacted yet.

 

[Trojina]

Ah....interesting. Well I feel the signs look good

Will they be contacting me soon?
5.2.6 (37)

There's the 37 again. 5.2 suggests they are talking about you.....and 5.6 makes me wonder if they come up with some kind of proposal outside of what you expect ? If so, if anything a bit weird comes from it don't dismiss it out of hand. I think 37 is excellent for civil service work...very structured, part of an organisation and so on. 5.2 is never comfortable...it's as if your ears burn and you know inside others are discussing you.

55uc. Well it look like judgement day is nigh ! I feel you will get it yes.


I can't be sure of course but I do feel you are headed in the right direction here. I hope you get it if you truly want it !

 

[equinox]

What happened, Moss? Did they ever contact you and who were the three unexpected guests?

 

[moss elk]

Well, I forgot about this reading.
But now I can explain about the 5.6.

So, I aced the tests and waited around for a year with no call back. Only found out after that they gave 'absolute preference' to veterans, and many people were returning from military in the middle east at the time, so they got the positions.

Approximately a year and a half after this reading, some thing (5.6) happened.

from my wikiwing entry:
I was looking for work, and having no success at it. Exasperated, I asked how I could actually find a job and got this line.
The line showed a scenario that had just recently played out in the prior days.
(I had broken up a fight between two brothers, got myself knocked down on the floor in the process, and the step father of the men asked me to refrain from fighting the aggressor brother.) I did not understand the reading at the time, but a few days after, ran into the father who spoke to his employer on my behalf, and got me a job within three days, working with him.
I honored the three men, and good fortune came directly from it.

Oh, and the 5.2 was 'bad mouthing' from a certain relative, who had a fair amount of wealth and no need to work, and nothing better to do than to try to put me down, when I was already down.

 

[equinox]

Thank you a lot for the update. I am not sure if I get you right -- you had to wait for those "guests" 1,5 years after the reading ... or just a few days?

And does 5.2 always mean bad mouthing to you or did you ever experience that this may also be an own inner voice which refuses to be quite?

Thank you a lot for the update. I am not sure if I get you right -- you had to wait for those "guests" 1,5 years after the reading ... or just a few days?

It was a year and a half after this reading that I found employment.
(sorry for the confusion, I got 5.6 again within three days of getting the job, that is when I understood it.)
So, it meant not only the dynamics mentioned in the line, but also, importantly, something that was not expected. Perhaps not unlike how people describe 14.6.

And does 5.2 always mean bad mouthing to you or did you ever experience that this may also be an own inner voice which refuses to be quite?

It was active bad mouthing in my circumstance, but surely it can apply to 'inner voices' of bad mouthers who have affected one. You know, the thoughts we hear, that are actually echoes of someone elses voice. (abusive parents and such, the gift that keeps on giving.)

 

[equinox]

Thank you again -- how very interesting. Another proof for the fact that readings may pan out even years after one received them.

You know, the thoughts we hear, that are actually echoes of someone elses voice. (abusive parents and such, the gift that keeps on giving.)

These are very wise words.

 

[rosada]

I wonder if 5.2 might indicate talk that doesn't amount to much. Like you applied for this job and the IC says, "5.2 They posted a job opening but it's just talk - the opportunity will go to a vet. But don't worry, 5.6 some unexpected job offer will come to you."
Oh and maybe 37 is a head's up that it's gonna take awhile, persevere..

 

[moss elk]

Whilhelm has it as 'There will be gossip'
Legge has it as 'being spoken against'
Bradford has it as 'the small will talk'

And there was definitely a petty person talking smack in my situation.
The kind of person that has no other hobbies than to gossip.

 

[rosada]

Well Legge's interpretation definitely fits here but as a general rule I'm wondering how this line fits into the story. I mean, having a jerk relative didn't have to do with getting the job, right? So I'm wondering why it would be mentioned. Maybe as a guidepost? Like "When you hear the gossip just take it as a sign you're headed in the right direction and that the three uninvited guests will show up eventually too"? But also as a general rule I'm wondering if we should now consider 5.2 as indicating the reason one is waiting in the first place may be based on a "sandy" premise?
Interesting line 6 often indicates something happening "after" - like AFTER you stopped/given up waiting then the unexpected opportunity appeared.

 

[moss elk]

This was one of those answers that was larger than my question. (as happens sometimes, never forget this!)
Sit up and take notice when you don't get a 'direct answer'. My concerns were addressed, not my actual question.

I was stressing about the particular job,
my rapidly dwindling savings, and future outlook.

All four components of the answer were applicable:
1-Wait.
2-There will be trash talking.
(boy was there. had to endure it.
multiplying the indignity: the relatives business cannot exist without my participation, this is not an exageration)
3-An unexpected three guests will arrive. (they did)
4-The Family. (I had a small stake in a family business that provided enough to just barely squeak by until a new job came.)

I was given an answer that was reflective of the time to come before I was to be employed, how I would make it through, and how the employment would come about.

 

[rosada]

Cool. :bows:

 

[moss elk]

And just to wrap the story up...

One of the funny and most maddening things during that period of unemployment was this: About a month before I got the job, I was still job searching and very worried and frustrated. I asked Yi what I had to "do next to find employment."

5 unchanging
Wait.
I think I screamed.
"bah! wait?! what?" .... that slowly turned into 'alrighty then, let's see how That goes'

and I just waited and didn't look for work that month.
and it worked. :bows:

 

[equinox]

Interesting line 6 often indicates something happening "after" - like AFTER you stopped/given up waiting then the unexpected opportunity appeared.

rosada, was it always an opportunity that you misjudged/underestimated first or did you also experience that it was excactly what you wished for before you gave up waiting?
