Both.@marybluesky you said conversations with the I Ching were not that uncommon. We’re you speaking of conversations that largely consist of statements, or questions?
It was my take of hexagrams and can be wrong.On 54.5 I do not see how that would work. 54 is entirely about relationships, and this one specifically discusses marriage. I have never heard of it being interpreted as encouraging someone to be single.
edit: that does not mean it is not worth considering.
In my case in particular, I know that being single is not something I would enjoy more than being in a relationship.
I would not find it more fulfilling. Certainly not a “good life”.
I would be interested in hearing more about why you believe this conversation indicates single.
There is nothing pointing to isolation. Everything seems to point towards interaction with the possible exception of 33 which is saying there is only success in small things.
So 33 in and of itself does not seem to indicate retreat from relationships but rather cautious (small) actions.
You consider your life terminated after the separation. 54.5 says being single may be considred less ideal than being married, but you'll have the "more beautiful dress"- something good. Can't say for sure what the good thing is.
33 doesn't show isolation, rather remaining in place or going backward instead of jumping in a situation. It was the relating hexagram, so I read 1.1.2 in such a background.
