I tried to change the mistake in the message but it would only let me change the title (which is correct). I'll look around on the system more to see how to edit the text in the message.
My two cents worth comments are as follows:Hello all. This is my first time posting in shared readings. About a year or so ago, I had a private session with Hilary about a few issues. I read the shared readings if I throw the coins (online), however I have never posted to ask for assistance until today. I am familiar with the IChing but remain very much a beloved novice.
My son will be 26 today (9 Oct). He and I are estranged. To make a lifetime story short. His father and I separated when he was a few months old. I returned under duress to my home country as the relationship was emotionally and mentally abusive. After his father locked me in the house, I felt physical abuse was not far off and left him. I then stayed in the foreign country until his father made it again impossible for me to stay with any peace of mind. So I finally returned to my home country.
Fast forward to today. My son is angry with me because he feels I kept him from his father out of spite. I did not. Due to his father's behavior and bringing in the courts (he initiated that, not I), there were necessary restraints (like having a lawyer hold his passport so he could not kidnap my son), but he could have seen our son by arrangement.
Anyway, now that my son is grown he blames me for his father's non-involvement or I guess maybe he feels rejected by him? My son did not have a bad life, however I understand that he has his own perspective. His stepfather (a man I was with for many years - and practically also raised my son), is still in his life. My son went to good schools and is a professional dancer soon to leave the country in November to join a prestigious show where he will be highlighted. It's the beginning of his professional dance career and I am happy for him.
However, he has continued to blame me for everything and treat me rudely. I tried talking to him but his mind is made up. I was hoping that we could (with his stepfather) at least meet today for dinner to celebrate both his birthday and the coming back of work (it's been a scary 7 months with all theatres closed down). I am an actor/writer/director and his stepfather is a photographer/filmmaker. My son's father is also an actor/writer/musician.
So far, he is ignoring his stepfather's phone calls and texts. He has blocked me from communication as well. I am distraught at the thought that my son hates me so much. He is refusing to see me on his birthday. And soon will be leaving the country for who knows how long and will I ever see or talk to him again??
Not to get ahead of myself, I only asked the one question this morning. Here is my completely novice take on things. Forgive me if I write this in the wrong format.
58. OPENING
'Opening, creating success.
Constancy bears fruit'
So far so good. Opening the mouth and good, happy things coming out. We will meet and talk nicely and warmly with each other? Im not sure if I am putting too much of a positive spin on things. I'm desperate.
Line 1
Responsive opening, good fortune
Line 2
True and confident opening, good fortune
Line 4
Negotiating opening, not yet at rest.
Containing the affliction brings rejoicing.
8. SEEKING UNION
I am willing to not talk about anything other than pleasantries. Particularly as it's his birthday and I really really don't want to argue with him. I'm not even trying to change his mind as I see that course of action fails miserably. But I am having a hard time accepting total rejection from my son. I really do love him and have sacrificed alot for him. Anyway, I can feel myself defending myself. I just don't know what to do or what this means. I'm sorry if I'm breaking a rule regarding yes/no questions,but that is my question. And by "see" I mean in person and that we connect.
The reading seems positive except for the last line. There is an opening, but only if I focus on pleasantries? Sometimes I read positive things about 8 others not so positive. Yes, I am seeking union with my son, but maybe it is saying that's what I want but I won't get it?
Ok, sorry for the novel! Any feedback or suggestions are welcome. If there are follow up questions you feel I could ask please advise. Thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate it more than you know. Many blessings. Namaste.
Tui is a female and there are two females involved.
Also it doesn't follow that double Tui = 2 females. It's just not like that, it's not like any time a person casts hexagram 58 there's 2 women involved.
