Water below is you and your inner outlook. It indicates an emotional ride, perhaps challenges and hard work. Water stays the course and goes with the flow. Take the plunge and feel your way through the falls and pits and eddies listening to the beat of your heart. Fire above refers to the outer situation and the question 'outlook on the next year of my life.' It indicates clarity and passion and clinging to what fuels you. Fire needs air and wood. What fuels your passion? Let it come from your deeper emotions (water on the inside). Your attitude determines how the unknown, (the unfinished, that which is in transition)turns out. Hexagram 64 also seems a good description of how we are feeling about next year - lots of transition, unknowns, and unfinished business. Stay true to you. Walk forth. Blessings.

Hi folx,
Yesterday was Election Day here in the US, and also my 45th birthday. When I sat down to do my traditional birthday reading, I was of course also somewhat preoccupied with the uncertainty around this election (things were already looking much closer than polls has suggested). So the broad question I asked, "What is the outlook on the next year of my life?" yielded a somewhat unsurprisingly broad answer, 64 with no change.
Here's my take on it, and I'm curious what y'all think. Without changing lines, the outlook on 64 would seem to be that no matter what conclusion is reached re the election, the problems/issues/divisions etc. that persisted before the election will not be suddenly resolved after.
An earlier reading, on the Autumnal Equinox, about the outlook on the rest of the year, also yielded up 64, but as the secondary hex. The primary hex there was 6 with a changing line at 5. I posted on it elsewhere.
Taken together, it would seem that the next year of my life with continue to feature some (or one) major unresolved issue.
Thoughts?
