hex 32 re: marriage

[rosalind]

I am new to this forum and relatively new to i ching. I am separated from my partner, we have a son. I have been working slowly and persistently to reconcile. I have gotten a SLOW, but increasingly better response from my partner. I have consulted the i ching throughout the process and have been grateful for the experience. My path back to my partner has been spiritual and solitary. He says he sees a possibility of reconciliation after some time and some of his own personal growth.
I have gotten hexagram 32 three times. I used an online cast, and also i have sat and cast coins for the first time. on each occasion, i have envisioned myself marrying him rather than asking anything specific, and i get 32. I would love some insight into hexagram 32. i feel like it's pretty straight forward, that relationships that become marriages take slow steady progress and time. can this be just my process, or could it be "our" process?

changes to 62 (i think)

i would like to add that when i cast by hand, i got 32 changing to 62. A few days later, when I cast online, i got 32 changing to 46 pushing upward. since i am envisioning getting married, could it be reflecting what i want or showing me what is to come if i continue my present course?

Hex 32 is called "duration" which means the way you are now will be the way you are in the future, single.

32 means 'continuing on your present course is good'. Willowfox sees 'your present course' as that of being single. I see your present course as that of 'wanting to be reconciled with your ex and working toward that'.

What do you see your present course as being?

 

[willowfox]

I see your present course as that of 'wanting to be reconciled with your ex and working toward that'.

Yes, I agree that it can be seen this way as well, to persevere in the face of obstacles, to endure on one's path towards the goal of marriage.

But line 32.4 suggests that she will not get her man.

I see my present course as working toward marrying my son's dad. I have not wavered in the working toward that goal. I just do not see it as "i'll continue being single". I see it as a good sign of my perseverence. when i meditate on the both of us, my name and his, this is what i got. I don't see it as a prediction, but as advice.
