Hello, friends!
I was reading a I Ching and asked about -how it will happen a relationship with the girl I've met on Tinder.

She is very pretty and do a lot of things, like art, tattoo, games etc.

The first gua about this was (36) "míng yi - Darkening the Light" with changing lines 2, 4, 5, 6
I understood that THINGS WILL HAPPEN and it seems that our chat will not wither

But I didn't understand about it change
When lines 2, 4, 5 6 change, the secondary gua is (1) "qián - The creative principle"

I can't understand this meaning, and I REALLY TRIED
What can it be?

I can't think anything about creative principle in a relationship, specially if you consider the main Gua

What do you think about it?

Hexagram 36 is about darkened or clouded understanding, it's about protecting yourself in a difficult situation by "hiding your light". Sometimes it seems to me that it describes being "in the dark" and lacking information to properly act. Transforming to 1 "Creative Power" does seem to suggest that there is potential here, buuuut you may not yet be able to access it. In other words, your question was about "what will happen", Hexagram 36 suggests to me that you just don't have the information to know yet.

Line 2- "Crippled in the thigh, rescued by horse's strength"- whenever Yi talks about horses I think of the philosopher Zhuangzi's chapter on Horses' Hooves- free horses naturally run and gallop and rub their necks against each other, they don't need "order" or "protection", it is when the horse trainer imposes human controls on them that they become rebellious and violent. Maybe your anxiety to feel secure and figure the situation out before it has happened is a problem- you should follow your free instincts like a wild horse.

Line 4- "entering the heart of darkness and escaping with the spark"- this line is very tricky, but it suggests to me going into the unknown and uncertain situation and taking what you can gain from it. No way to know how the relationship will go, but you can find whatever wisdom and joy is in it regardless

Line 5- "Prince Ji's brightness"- Prince Ji was a nobleman in the evil and corrupt court of the last Shang tyrant in ancient China. He protected himself from the evil around him by pretending to be drunk all the time, "hiding his brightness". I think for your question this has to do with not trying to force the situation or impose your feelings on it- instead, be careful with your light, conserve your emotions from chaos. It might even mean guarding your heart in a relationship that has potential to hurt you.

Line 6- "light, and then darkness, descending into the earth"- this is a strong warning, suggests lost potential. Perhaps this relationship will shine for a while before descending into darkness. The commentaries suggest that part of this is a failure- that maybe there is something that should be done in this relationship to make it prosper that you or her might fail to do.
But as the corresponding hexagram is 1, The Creative, I think that it is in your hands- there is potential to create something, if you can carefully use your light.

how it will happen a relationship with the girl I've met on Tinder.

Response: 36 with lines 2, 4, 5, 6 changing to Hex. 1.
When you say you've 'met' this person, you mean that you've seen their supposed photo and bio on a phone or computer screen, is that correct?

The reading suggests that you are seeking a way to connect with others, but that you might want to be a bit more discerning and thoughtful about how you do this. There's also a caution here: while there is potential for relationship, there may also be the potential that this person is quite different 'in person' (i.e. live, in the flesh, real).

(A question I have: are people sometimes not who they say they are on Tinder? I'm curious since I know nothing about it.)

Yes, that's correct. We follow each other on Instagram too, and we have talked on WhatsApp too.

I did not interpret what you said on this reading, but I sure considerate your thought on that. I really can't see those topics you've mentioned :/

And about your question; yeah, sometimes people say things that aren't real about themselves
But... I have some friends in common with her, and things that I've mentioned about her are real hahahaha

I appreciate your response, thank you!

I don't know which topics you are not seeing, but no matter.

Are there any developments about what's happening with this relationship?
Have you met in person yet, or only electronically/virtually?

E.g. 'Meeting' on tinder, Instagram, WhatsApp is not the same as meeting / being with someone in person. That might be a different matter altogether, and it will be interesting to find out how things go once you do meet 'in person'.

Best, D

How will a relationship happen with this girl?
36 - 1:
Comparitively speaking, you're still pretty much 36. In The Dark about each other so maybe the IC is advising that getting to know each other better could be your first step to 1. Creating a real relationship.
