Hi all,

Dont know if this is the right place to post it, but i feel i would like to contribute with a reading i had two months ago about a woman who was really pressuring me to have a relationship with her and move out of my hometown with her to live in a van somewhere in the south, where we could surf, live in the nature and do out remote jobs. I was very insecure because i didnt know her well, and it takes time for me to decide to commit, because i take commitments very seriously. So i asked the Iching: What is the potential of a relationship with X? And it came H32.5.6>44

Well, i didnt understand fully the implications of the reading, because i was still amidst all the emotions and negotiations surrouding the relationship with her. And afterwards i did other readings for other things and sort of forgot this one.

Well now, after two months, i wanted to share how this reading reflected in my life: At the end, even with my doubts and fear, i committed to her, and started to plan things accordingly. I scheduled a work trip based on the dates we planned to the start the van trip (so the work trip was too short). I also gave back my rented room in the shared flat, and organized all my life around the idea of going with her. Funnily, when i finally took the decision to be with her, she started to feel insecure, and to question if we should go together. I asked her several times what could i do to make her feel more secure, and in the limits of what i found reasonable i did all that she asked. Nevertheless, she kept feeling more and more overwhelmed with the situation, and out of the blue, three weeks before our trip would start, she broke up with me, and i found out that she then rekindled with her ex-boyfriend and left alone.

Also: 44 is usually these situations when i feel overwhelmed and throw myself into a relationship or situation which i feel sort of overpowered and out of balance, but nevertheless compelled to keep going. And where the main impulse for this "event" is external. It just arrives out of the blue and very fast tries to get hold on me. In romantic relationships is when I am feel obsessed and infatuated for someone, which i deeply know is emotionally unavailable. But in this particular case, it was the first time that since the beginning I was somehow aware that i had doubts about comitting, but this woman made lots of efforts to convince me and sort of seduce me that our relationship and trip would be great, so i committed anyway.

32.5 - The fifth line, magnetic, shows its subject continuously maintaining the virtue indicated by it. In a wife this will be fortunate; in a husband, evil. (Legge)

Well, i sort of followed her "obediently", Making a virtue of marital constancy (Blofeld), which is unfortunate for the husband. At the end my life got upside down, i put myself under lots of stress and drama, and meanwhile she left hapilly ever for her trip. So Also with her reconnection with her ex boyfriend, i realised she was unconsciously using the relationship to try to heal her heartbreak, and at the end i may have contributed for her to get clear again about her intentions torwards her ex. So fortunate for her.

32.6 - The sixth line, magnetic, shows its subject exciting herself to long continuance. There will be evil. (Legge)

Well, then of course, to cope with all the chaos that i brought myself within this situation, i started to take bad decisions, based on impulse, anger, sadness and confusion. I got a ticket to a land far away, so i could be in peace to work on my own projects, but then in the last minute I could not board the flight because before the flight i was summoned for a important job related meeting related which i could not postpone,that happened the day after my flight. I also had only two days to make all the preparations for the trip, because i was already travelling for my job before. So all the moving out, bring my stuff to the storage room, the burocratic steps (change address for utilities, mail services, etc). All very hectic, chaotic and intense. I've been sleeping only 3 to 4 hours since a couple of days because of that.

So thats the story. Everything will be fine, just wanted to share how strickingly acurate the casting was, but i could only understand the meaning after everything happened.

Thanks for the example and the good explanation (and sorry such a thing happened).

It was 32.5.6 to 44, right? May I edit your thread title? Actually you might still be able to. Click the three dots in the upper right hand corner of the thread, then click edit thread.

Wow, thank you so much for the update. Really interesting to see how 44 as the second hex. worked out. I think as students of the I Ching everything else comes secondary, what ever dramas manifest in life, it's all about learning the meaning of a line. I mean, we seem to have these live experiences that make you wonder, "What in the world did I need to go through that for?" and perhaps it was so we could know the meaning of a line. Like maybe losing one's job and having two friends and nine cats die did help give clarity to some line (2.4?) so maybe there was a purpose to it all but geeze, you wonder, couldn't there have been an easier way to demonstrate a Tied Up Sack? But anyway, you went through an horrific experience but the good news is now you know the meaning of 44uc! (one down 63 to go...)

Ahaha, true. But then this learning comes from insight, and nothing can take it away from us. Feelings and emotions arive and pass way, but the wisdom (hopeffuly ) stays. Anyway, now i also learned though insight the meaning of H24.
