51 and intuition

Because of some incidents I needed to ask Yi “how I can learn to trust my intuition”
This is a matter that concerns me a lot. Couple of days ago I had one of those moments and I had the chance to check where the images got into my mind where “correct”. Shocking correct I have to say.

People that know me, believe that I have a “strange mind” and I have a way to connect dots and this is what confuse me. Is it the image “intuition” or “creative thinking” ?

So I asked Yi ,as I said earlier “how I can learn to trust my intuition” and got 51 . Oh ! oh! …..Haha !!!
One of the phrases I have in mind re 51 is “a stroke of insight” which is not far away from intuition.

I’m posting here and not at the Shared Reading , because I would like to hear your thoughts about intuition and hex 51 rather than getting an answer to my question ( but this is also welcome too ;))


So 51 and intuition…. Thoughts ?

Flashes of insight could easily be compared with shock, 51.

I think there are other, gentler expressions of intuition, such as "woman's intuition" or empathy, but I can perceive yours to be of the more sudden visionary kind.

The shock comes: fright, fright

Hi Maria,

Hex 51 refers to two situations where thunderbolts are involved. The Judgment refers to the dedication of the eldest son in his religious duties which keeps him continuing per his ritual without taking heed of the lightning and thunder crashing outside and all around him. This part shows a commitment to one's own established ways unaffected by what is happening elsewhere.

The other sense of hex 51 is noted in the commentary upon the Judgment in Book III which describes the detail orientation of the Eldest Son as King which would also help to give credibility in your own eyes to your intuitions.

Dear María:

Why do you ask such things? Intuition is neither an accident, a casuality, nor an attribute of the person, but a consequence of a WAY OF LIVING, even maybe better a WAY OF LOVING.

Based on 51.6: with COMMITMENT, LUCIDITY, GENTLENESS / GENEROSITY, the true thing will reveal itself.

Theory doesn't matter, practise matters.

Intuition is a sort of divination:

  • if you trusted in it and happened it was INTUITION
  • if you trusted in it but didn't happen it was ILLUSION
  • if you didn't trust in it and happened it was INTUITION although not well recognized.
  • if you didn't trust in it and didn't happen it was also INTUITION

If you look the chinese text of H.51 you will find many duplicated characters that can be mere onomatopoeias (sh... sh... / he he! / soo soo... / suo suo / jue jue) or can conserve some relation with the meaning of the single word (sometimes augmentatives like song of songs) or maybe the meaning could reside in connotations of the characters itselves.

51.6:

SHAKE ROPE-ROPE
The SHAKE tests the true bonds.
COMMITMENT

REGARD OWL-OWL
Look like an owl, eyes wide open.
LUCIDITY

TO ATTACK [IS] OMINOUS
No war. Aggression will have bad results.
Nothing without consent.
GENTLENESS

SHAKE NOT TO HER PREGNANT BODY
Pregnant ladies have a sort of indemnity.
Or maybe don't shake yourself.
???

... TO ONE'S NEIGHBORS
Better shake the one in the next door.
All is allowed.
???

NO WRONG
Don't worry.

MARRIAGE-COPULATION WILL HAVE [THE LAST] WORD.
Say it is not speaking of marriage-cremony, marriage-rite.
Truth is a matter of fact.


It looks like speaking about LOVE and SEX, but it is speaking about INTUITION.


Yours,


Charly

Frank and Charly,

thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'm exploring that reading in a slow-paced way.

Hi Ms Supersleuth..........

I think one of the interesting things with 51 is the way things can get "lit up" briefly. And that what gets "lit up" - rather like lightening - is cast in a slightly different light albeit briefly.

This hex so fascinates me because of all its associations. In 51 it is talking about the sound of thunder which creates the shock and yet it is usually the lightening that causes any damage. If you go back through the posts in the reading circle, Tiger had an interesting thread on 51 although it is talking about 51 in terms of economic crises - I think I put a nice Link there to something Luis posted in response to a question I had about 51 ages ago. Have a look........

If it is not there pm me and I'll send it to you
