64.4.6>7 taking action in relating

[literunner]

Happy New Year to all!

I asked the IC about an ex from this past year, "what action can I take to get back with C?" and got 64.4.6>7.
I looked up some other threads about 64 and these lines and about 7.
Impressions/views/thoughts on what the IC might be counseling here?

Seems you would have a fight on your hands of some kind. The I Ching says it would take all your courage and determination to win the fight, but in the end your determination would be rewarded.

What exactly is the fight all about? What or who is the enemy? Adverse or chaotic circumstances? People who disrupt the harmony of your life? Your own ego or ingrained bad habits? Does it mean a real fight, as with weapons? What does it mean?

Line 64.6 warns you against foolish excesses.

I am wondering, since you broke up with him once before, why you would want to get back together with him, since there's so much trouble involved in getting back together with him. The WikiWing here at OnlineClarity says that H64 sometimes refers to a suitor who's not sure that it's safe to commit himself.

Is your safety a real issue, with this person?

Ginnie,
Thank you for your take on this...I had not seen hex 64 this way, it's interesting to think about and gives me more to meditate on.

"What exactly is the fight all about? What or who is the enemy? Adverse or chaotic circumstances? People who disrupt the harmony of your life? Your own ego or ingrained bad habits? Does it mean a real fight, as with weapons? What does it mean?"

I am not sure what "the fight" is, Ginnie. Maybe parts of all of the above. ??
I've worked at discarding old beliefs and habits of mine that don't work. Been focused on keeping harmony in my life. Changed a lot of things around.

Maybe it is adverse circumstances or feelings, as there were hurt feelings and misunderstandings prior that could still be there. The last contact we had was filled with miscommunication. I wanted to clear it up, but it was not possible then. I would still like to. I care about this person and our relationship.
I asked the IC for some guidance to see if there was any new energy in this situation with the unfolding of a new year.

What do you mean by your words, "but in the end your determination would be rewarded?"

I'm also interested in the WikiWing you mentioned re: 'a suitor who's not sure that it's safe to commit himself.' Might that be me? Or the other party?
We did have talks about commitment and what each of us could feel comfortable with.

Much thanks, Ginnie, and happy new year.

You are the suitor wondering if it's safe to commit.

"Your determination is rewarded" -- those are the words of the traditional auspice connected with this line.

I am wondering if the "battle" referred to has been the battle you already fought and are still fighting to bring more harmony into your life and get rid of bad habits. Do you think this man might be considered by Yi to be a source of disharmony and conflict and therefore like a bad habit?

Or is that the battle -- figuring that out?

There is always something displaced, out of order, or out of line with H64. Or the feeling is unsettled and incomplete. In other words, something is wrong -- and it would take a good long time to set it right.

It is given to us in life to do certain things. Something is or was set before you to be overcome. There is no reason you cannot do this, if you remain determined. The auspice says that you will receive rich rewards in many ways.

Often Yi is referring to more than one subject at the same time. That is not unusual.

I have the feeling of not enough being known by you at this time for you to make a good decision. Not enough has come to full consciousness. Often Yi is ahead of us in time and tells us things we haven't even caught glimpses of yet.

But about that line 6 moving -- I'm thinking maybe this refers to a party you may have gone to over the holidays

Hi Ginnie,
I like this additional insight, thank you.:bows:

I do feel like there are things to put right ...and since I asked "what action to get back with C," it seems to be about taking action in righting our relationship somehow...or is that too literal??
... I got a note from C just before the holidays and it was unsettling, it was not very nice and not very warm. I felt anger in it and it let me see that there are still things incomplete. I would like to complete them and fulfill this, if that is what the Yi is gently urging then ...I am determined
And yes, I don't know enough yet but am open to understanding more and then can decide.
I did read one of your answers to someone else on here that read to the effect: "to heal something between you and someone give them a gift." It made me think...

"Often Yi is referring to more than one subject at the same time. That is not unusual."
More than one subject? How do you mean in this case?

LOL re: the parties this holiday--no, I kept it under control and had good fun
Thank you again for the additional thoughts, Ginnie.

If others have Hex64 experience, I'd love to hear as well.
Meanwhile, I'm going to keep thinking on this and reading...
