it has happened a few times now - I am out with my
dog and someone stops to talk about him and it becomes
a crowd (which freaks my dog in the end ! )
its a funny thing - I asked Yi about it. I was merely looking
at a cardigan and a nice cuople stopped then an elderly gent
- however I was aware of another 4/5 people on the periphery.
My dog likes the people talking but not the 'onlookers'
maybe I dont get out much and just need to get used to it
we are in the country at the moment so Brucie had an hour on
the open plain but I sat in a bohemian cafe after in an antiques arcade
where I do business. This is an open market not busy on a monday
- a collegue was unpacking from a vintage fair and had a viv westward
cardigan. So we were talking when the tourist couple came by
We have just been a galumphing over a country estate leash free and by
the deer park
people like the look of Bruce becasue he's cuddly. My Mother was a farmer
and I grew up with animals so I hope that reassures you Trojan
We each offer our own idea or an impression of the situation, don`t we? The one who asked should take it in an account as fits the best for him...so, I liked the image of the new pair in town. I think you are in the phase of getting used to life with each other and remember someone said he will benefit you or you will benefit one another, so there..
And I like trojan`s take on lines 1 and 2, sayin it is your decision where and how to take him out but in the future things should probably get more common in terms of your everyday routine.
Have you heard of Maru, the cat? Show him to Bruce and see....
Mmmm I don't know. I don't always see it like that....I mean theres no point just choosing the interpretation that makes you feel good at the cost of completely ignoring the I Ching reading and I see that more and more here on SR
A group of friends saying supportive things to each other but totally ignoring the actual reading. I think thats happened on all of the Bruce the Dog threads and other threads by other people
Oh, I do hope this is not so. In this case, I was not ignoring, just was saying what made sense to me, did not know the exact query even. I like to be able to relate to the topic and this thread made sense in the way that a dog can only benefit getting a caring and sensible owner.
It gets amazing for me where people can go with the interpretations offered sometimes and conclusion they are getting out of them.
But I try to be understanding, smooth persuasion always works better when someone is in distress and you can see from the way they ask and how they interpret things how affected they are. It is hard for most to see the cast with an objective eye.
And most tend to ignore the bad news anyway...and ask more. :bag:
It is good to return to the older casts or sleep on it...yea, easier said then done.
But in Bruce`s case, you think hopex made the wrong decision or what is troubling you in her casts on the matter? I don`t follow, sorry.
If there is some danger, line 2 would seem to be misleading in all of the translations I know of. But it is indeed something to ponder with regard to an animal that had a rough past, and was in a shelter, and is now surrounded by people. I would say a healthy dose of caution coupled with a spirit of fun should be the right formula. Hard to attain, I know.60. Limitation
Line 1:
Not going out of the door to the yard.
Without fault.
Limiting oneself to what is familiar, not taking risks. It is not wrong to do so.
Line 2:
Not going beyond the gate of the yard.
Misfortune.
Limiting oneself too much, and by that missing opportunities.
@Trojan: I am curious. As you say friends comforting friends seems to be the rule specifically with the Bruce threads, do you see some danger or "opposite message" within the readings cast by Hopex?
.I am just wondering, as if there is , say, some potential danger in bringing him around too many people too soon it might be worth exploring, or Hopex may even decide to consult a vet about what is the best protocol. I understand 60.1.2 in the following manner: ( I know you dislike Berkers but indulge me):

and just from memory, Wilhelm's 42.6 is "He brings increase to no one. Indeed, someone even strikes him. He does not keep his heart steady" (or close enough, as I said, from memory)---what might you see in this with regard to Bruce? I think it may mean that one must be careful of him getting overstimulated, and avoid any possible mishap.
I think it is very obvious. In this context, with these facts , in this situation, that line to me would be self explanatory in terms of possible potential.Yes, but I already explained that on the previous threads. I'm not being alarmist, its not like danger from the outside..
.
Personally with this reading in this thread I don't feel its that deep...it just describes going out/not going out and yes may refer to past expereinces of being out...who knows However in this thread Hopex asked about the motives of the crowd not the dog. Assuming everyonein the crowd had similar motives...she asked "why has Bruce attracted a crowd of people". It would probably make any answer hard to understand...is it about the crowd..?.is it about the dog ? More importantly what is the real question here ? So no I don't see 'danger' here...its not really a question of danger is it ..
I said what i thought it meant, in depth, on the previous threads about Bruce in which the 42.6 was cast. Look back if you want to see what i said. I don't think it has anything whatsoever to do with being overstimulated I can't imagine how you get that fron 42.6
