dream

[davy]

I dreamed I was on top of a roof in the middle of an eastern city in a tent, and people were shooting arrows at me. I couldn't see the people, but they had something to do with *****'s parents.

The reading I got was 52.6 > 15

I'm not sure what to make of this. Any insights are appreciated.

I'm not sure what to make of it either without enquiring: who is *****?

 

[davy]

***** is a girl I know. She likes me, and we're sort of friends. It might be some deep sublimated issue about us and I never really thought about us because of her parents. Maybe some deeper form of desire came up in my dream, and thus the arrows. I'd get shot! It was just a dream. In reality, ha! We're just friends. I just don't understand the 52.6 part.

What exactly was your question of the Yi Ching that received a hexagram 52.6 to 15 reply?

What does my dream mean?
52.6 > 15

Being atop a roof is like being atop a mountain. You are in a tent -- a temporary dwelling -- so the situation is changing. Being shot at by people connected to *****'s family suggests there is some opposition to your friendship with Jackie. Line 6 suggests you should graciously keep your position for good fortune. I think modesty in 15 refers to acting in the best interest of others and implies that your conduct is correct.

I had a dream almost exactly like this in year 3 or 4 of school the night when I had two friends who gave me an ultimatum that I had to choose one of them as my best friend. I ended up saying I wouldn't choose either as they were both my friends. Then the friend who had been the one who wanted the other girl to not be my friend at all spread rumours about me around the school. Relationships are so fickle, even friendships.

In terms of your dream I would say if any (metaphorical) arrows are slung your way then the time calls for stillness, and in a line 6 kind of way, which is great hearted (hilary's words), and comes from and goes to a place of 15, I will use the word humility here but go read the thread on 15 in ex div, what people have said in there is really interesting.

I think dreams are very hard to read, especially when you have no clue of other circumstances in the person's life.

If in fact the question was: "What does my dream mean?" -- because we never established that for certain -- then I would say that, somewhere deep inside, you reciprocate *****'s apparent interest in you and have concerns that you aren't in a stable position to make anything serious of those interests. You are an honourable guy and you fear that, if her parents knew of your attraction to her, they might be opposed because they don't think you have enough substance to your situation; [i.e.] you aren't certain you are mature enough to take on a serious relationship with her and be taken seriously by her family.

Everyone has good answers, but because you can't know the particulars, it is difficult at best to interpret the meaning. I will have to be more careful about the details in the future. For now, arabella said it most succinctly,"You are an honourable guy and you fear that, if her parents knew of your attraction to her, they might be opposed because they don't think you have enough substance to your situation; [i.e.] you aren't certain you are mature enough to take on a serious relationship with her and be taken seriously by her family." They don't really know me, so it would be a common paradigm in america to lump all men is a box of immaturity. Most people rationalize, if you are over 25-30 and not in a relationship, you must me fickle, immature, a derelict, or worse. This of course is bogus and untrue, but for quick processing and evaluation and protection, most people judge harshly. That is what I am feeling, and I hate it, but we are friends and we endure it.

Well, hopefully this stigma -- of thinking that late-twenties and unmarried is some kind of a curse -- is disappearing. People are waiting longer to get into serious relationships because it's hard for young people to get financial stability these days. Keep swinging, they can't fail to take you seriously forever. Anyway, you might give them a chance, see what happens if you and ***** did get together -- maybe her parents aren't ogres after all! There's always an exception to the rule.
