Cat allergy ? 61.5

[ctel77]

So I developed some breathing problems are while ago. Already recovering. However, someone sugested to me that my 2 wonderful cats could be the cause of it? Late allergy development. I find it hard to believe, never had an animal allergy ever. I thought the breathing problems was just related to stress (yes, I did have a stressful time before).

So, I popped the question: How likely is this allergy from my cats?

61.5 41

I don't understand it.

One says:
"When others are waiting for help, and one hesitates, one hides behind one's group."

Another says:
"Possesses truth, which links together."

Another:
"a greater bonding between you and your "friends""

Another:
"Having a trusting relationship.
Without fault."

So, that's a no?! I certainly hope so. I love them to bits

Thank you

I'd guess a "no," too. You and your are bound together in truth, confidence, trust.

What a relief! Thank you! I was concerned that "Possesses truth, which links together." Was Yi telling me there was a "link" between my cats and my breathing condition. While seeing 41 as a "compromise".

Wonder if 41 just means decrease - what I mean is, in the sense of you're already recovering. If you'd actually developed a cat allergy it doesn't seem likely it would get better.

In other words I sort of hear it like this:
You: "How likely is this allergy from my cats?"
Yi: "You and your cats are bonded by truth and confidence. (P.S. Notice how your symptoms are already decreasing.)"

Next logical point: that doesn't read quite like an answer, does it? I agree the most straightforward way to see 61.5 as an answer to your actual question is that there's a link or bond between your cats and your breathing problems.

I suppose my explanation for that is that the relating hexagram is often your hexagram (as Hilary usually points out) - it shows something subjective and personal, where you stand in relation. It can often be the easiest part of the reading to recognize. Sometimes it's even helpful to start there - look at the relating hexagram first, see what you recognize. This one seems like that to me.

Then 61 - 61 is inner knowing. Do you have an intuition this probably isn't true? You find it hard to believe - you've never had an animal allergy - you have another plausible explanation - does the person who suggested the cats know anything, or was it just their knee-jerk reaction?

Also, 61.5 would be a pretty sunny way of delivering bad news.

Those last parts are pretty weak, though, since people can develop allergies suddenly that they never had before, and you can't always go by a line text's tone (that's true for lovely-sounding ones and dire ones). The 41 part is the most convincing to me.

But who knows - the more it takes to explain an interpretation the less sure I am about it. Also I have a biased opinion about cats and biases and interpretation do not mix well.
