So she asked whats this change in work going to bring? Whats in it for me?
I think you've pretty much summarised the reading very well but I'll run my own thoughts by you.
As you mention, 56 is about travelling and transition either externally and/or internally. Very appropriate.
Line 2: She may have the wherewithal to handle this transition but it'll depend how she can juggle things not only in her job but most importantly how she reacts and perceives the situation. Perhaps there is help there it seems, in some form.
Line 3: Shows adversity of some kind stemming from her own attitude or from the strains of the job - or both. It's a fulcrum point where things can get tricky and can act as the launching pad to line 6 where it reaches the apotheosis of change - where a) carelessness and negative elements of one's character tend to scupper more positive outcomes or b) external circumstances encroach over which she has no control, forcing her to make that change. (fan yao = 62.6 the little bird has flow way too high).
So, not a great set of lines in relation to the question: "What's in it for me?"
Not a great deal. It seems to indicate that her ambition has either been stoked a little too hard and she's tried to do too much with the danger of burning out looming large. H.40 shows the background overall and that a release of tension is required.
I hope your sister finds the balance she needs.
She might want to ask a different question to follow up. Rather than: "what's in it for me?" how about:
"What is the most important thing I need focus on in order to balance my work and family life?"
Dear topal
thank you very much for your detailed explanation, i agree with you that maybe the question should have been posed differently. Coming back to the changing lines, i would like to ask if you think that a gradual accummulation of negative aspects of this job (especially the lines 3 and 6 in hexagram 56) could lead into a need of pressure release which can be result into quitting the job maybe anyways? I guess she would maybe welcome a job change anyways sooner or later since her workload is already too much for her.
