A very important reading for me -please help if you can.

My husband and I have been trying for a baby for a few years now but due to a lot of stress in my life and other factors, I have been unable to conceive. We had some unsuccessful treatment last year, after which I went into depression, then had an accident so only now we are in a position to try again. Due to my age of 43 the doctors gave me very low chances of success but nevertheless I just tried IVF. I had an egg collection procedure done today (where eggs are collected from your ovaries, husband does his bit and everyone hopes that one of the eggs will fertilise, in which case the embrio gets transferred back to me in a couple of days). They only found 1 egg, which gives us low chances of success but at least we have 1. My golden egg. We have to wait till tomorrow to hear from the clinic, whether it fertilised. I am extremely anxious as this might be our last chance at having a child.

So after an internal debate in my head whether to do it or not, I have asked the question: "what are my chances of falling pregnant in this cycle?

Correct me if I am wrong but it looks as if though there is a chance? I do need advice on the tiger bit though, what do you think the advice here is? How do I tread carefully? I think line 10.2 might be advising to wind down and stop working so hard as I've been working very long hours, which makes me anxious and exhausted, the two elements which I'm sure do not help with fertility. What about the rest though?

Any help and advice would be highly appreciated! Many thanks, Bxxx

Hi Veronica,

10.2 changes to 25, which is an important element here. My initial thoughts are as you've expressed too, that anxiety does not work in your favor regardless of how you try to make this happen. In fact, it's possible you may have had your wish naturally if there was no anxiety. Be that as it may, I think Yi suggests to relax and let things happen and do not angst over it. There still are alternatives to raising a child available to you. Don't let your biological clock run nor ruin your life.

I wish you the best.

Hi Veronica,

Pls take care...

what are my chances of falling pregnant in this cycle?


You asked "what are the chances"

Yi's reply: 50/50 (Hex 25)

To me, Hex 10 is the description of the fertilization process (see Wilhelm below) and line 2 the "lone sage" egg.

What we love about the Yi is that it is always logical, not emotional like us. Though sometimes, we wish it were.

The situation is really difficult. That which is strongest and that which is weakest are close together. The weak follows behind the strong and worries it. The strong, however, acquiesces and does not hurt the weak, because the contact is in goof humor and harmless. In terms of a human situation, one is handling wild, intractable people. In such a case one's purpose will be achieved if one behaves with decorum.

I have just found out that my (golden) egg has fertilised! yesterday so they will transfer it tomorrow morning. So now it will be up to me I guess!

The egg transfer completed successfully yesterday morning. Now it's a 2 week waiting game to see if I'm pregnant. The crucial question is whether the egg will implant itself or not, which takes place a couple of days after transplantation. Does anyone have any more recommendations for me, based on the reading?

It really just looks like you need to take it easy. Treat yourself as if you are indeed pregnant. Not overdoing anything. Staying stress free. Nourishing yourself. Do everything in moderation. Follow any instructions the Dr gives you, and allow the heavens to do the rest. Accept that if this is meant to be and the best path, then it will be. And then let it be what it will.

Best wishes on this journey
