hi all,

speaking of 61... and btw Luis, your pics are really gorgeous.

anyway, could you enlighten me as to the meaning(s) of 61.6, in this case the question in terms of explaining someone's position on a particular matter.

ta.

and a very happy 2004 everyone, may it bring you good stuff in every possible way you can imagine and many you can't.

someone's position on a particular matter?

my guess, knowing absolutely nothing about the situation, is that the person feels very strongly about the matter. passionate maybe? deaf to all other pleas?

these images can go so many ways. the person could be very right. or could be talking so loud they wake the i ching up.

Hi Sugar!

Thanks about my pics.

As to what 61.6 means in the context of a person's position on a particular matter, IMHO, it means that such person is receiving a wake up call, a reality check.

61.6 shows a crowing sound of a rooster high in the sky. Roosters do not fly high and this situation shows an impossibility. The subject is overreaching. Even with perseverance will not attain what he/her is reaching for. The subject must be aware of his/her own limitations and work within them.

This is only my own interpretation of it.

Cheers,

Luis

hi tash, hi luis!

ok, so on the one hand feeling strongly about his position, on the other going through a reality-check about it, and my personal take was that 61.6 indicated there was a feeling that the attitude taken was becoming excessive, too rigid, as it is not really in accord with inner truth, and therefore existing limitations with regard to this particular issue must be reassessed in order not to be too harsh (60.6).

kinda makes sense, but we'll see how it pans out!
