Adorning usually means things moving with grace and continuity. Then there are nuances in that hexagram with the changing lines to specify that idea further.
37... usually means to me somthing to do family and family structure. For you It means hold to the role of the female, who is receptive and supportive of the man.
Hexagram 52 means keep still - basicly take no action. Keep still, non action.
The Yijing I think here is telling you to wait for him to woo you. You should not take any action and instead should act in the proper role role of courtship, or the role of a wife in a marriage.
Oho, so that's where the "loss of love" that molaurie mentions comes from.
I see Chris's point here, though I'd express it a little differently: that love -- especially romantic love -- is entirely irrelevant to 52, which is about meditative, self-contained stillness.
I dare to argue that keeping still doesn't mean literally keep still but more of a don't change the situation. If you're already in contact don't try to escalate to something more but keep doing what you're doing.
also in the words of Yoda, there is do or do not, there is no try.
The Mountain, doubled means an insurmountable obstacle exists. It is that simple. The ideas regarding stillness and meditation are Buddhist commentaries dating probably from the Han Dynasty. Nice words and image but the mountain doubled means you will not be able to get there.
