Hi, folks. This was an interesting one and I thought I'd put it out for advice and discussion. The query was about contacting a particular job recruiting agency; I had mixed intuitions about it it, so I asked I Ching.

So, what's going on when 23 flips over to 24?

Phoenix rising from the ashes ? From the debris and collapse of an old and worn out situation new growth appears. Don't know how you can apply this to your situation ?

(Usually no harm to sign up with an agency, if you don't want their work when it comes up you can turn it down)

Could say the situation needs a complete overhaul not just a shift about. But this process looks to me here to be pretty organic by which I mean I have a sense of fatedness with 23, like death, not a stripping away you might actively wish for but a necessary one for the new growth.

I think this is quite a cool answer actually. Your're being reborn even as your dieing (metaphorically) Do you think it might be applying to your life in a wider sense than just the recruiting agency question ?

Could be the Yi is saying don't think you can continue in old ways of doing things. I don't know if agency stuff is new departure for you or something you've done before. I guess that has a bearing on how you interpret your answer. How do you see it ?

I took it it pretty much as you described; rising up with a new way of doing things. I went ahead with those guys after getting the reading.

As for my initial reticence, it's kind of a long story, but the reading really helped me sort out my feelings.

Thanks for your insights. Just the kind of feedback I was looking for.

My experience has been the profoundness of the question directly determines the degree of profoundness to assign to the hexagrams. So, if this is a career move of small to medium importance, 23 should be interpreted as a "stripping" of equivalent importance within your life. Probably it means something like, "upon further investigation, they find they are not able to place you". The tendential hexagram returns you to where you were before applying with them.

Another clue is the energy patterns. Lines 1 and 6 together to me mean the hexagram's energy is travelled through abruptly. The sequential pattern gives it a feeling of proceeding with logical order. So, if I were to receive that, I would think something like, the paperwork gets messed up and they have to come back to me for some further qualifications, or they go out of business, or for some other reason the opportunity isn't what it appears after the "stripping" energy reveals the inner workings of this agency.

Hex 23.1 the bed represents your current situation but it has lost its legs, meaning, your present job situation is going no where. So staying this way will only bring you misfortune.
Hex 23.6 the largest fruit is uneaten, meaning there is an opportunity that you have not taken yet. When you do you will receive very good results.

Hex 24 this is a turning point for you, a time of transformation, going with the agency brings in new opportunities, a rebirth in your job life. Coming and going, joining with friends, all signify a time of happiness. 7 days or perhaps 7 weeks is the time of your return or change, therefore 7 weeks would indicate the time around the end of November, 2006.

Willowfox, thanks. How can I lean more about your approach to timing?

Autumn, thanks to you, too. FWIW, the current situation is dramatic enough that I'm inclined toward trojan's dramatic interpretation. I'm curious about something: "Lines 1 and 6 together to me mean the hexagram's energy is travelled through abruptly. ..." How so?

Line 1 is where the energy in the hexagram begins. Line 6 is where it cumulates. I've noticed that when Lines 1 and 6 alone are in the hexagram, the "theme" of the hexagram energy plays itself out quickly.

Funny. I asked a similar question and got the same answer. Thinking about leaving my job for a new one. Just starting the search. I wonder how it worked out for the last person?

I second the previous posters, because I made a very good experience with 23>24
Can't say it was totally pain free, it was indeed the kind of pain you feel when you have to get out of your comfort zone, even if you feel that the situation itself is not so comfortable -- and afterwards it is even possible that you ask yourself why you didn't do it earlier. But that shouldn't be a concern, the right time for leaving is now. I think that 23.1.6 means to leave an obsolete situation in a 'violent' way. Like Trojina said, "being reborn even as your dieing" or "Phoenix rising from the ashes".

hmm...maybe 24 is saying that you will be contacted by the agency when you don't expect that... line 1 talks about the present situation which is not still or safe but then with the 6th line this uncertainty ends...i think

i think you should contact it... but you could receive 2 offers maybe...the first one has to be looked cautiously while the other one should be valued more .But I'm no expert XD

The question about the agency is from 2006 ! 12 years ago. I think the issue will have been resolved.

The problem is when people post their questions on an ancient 12 year old thread as 12th house did then everyone thinks it's a new thread and starts answering the original querant.

12th house has a separate query which belongs in it's own thread as otherwise well it is so confusing.

Who knows, if you look at the person's profile who started the thread you can see they haven't been here since 2010, 8 years ago.

Who knows they may be back but I wouldn't hold your breath.
