Hi,

I'm applying for a job by tender an asked Yi how will it work out. I got 45.6>2. Hex is very positive but Stephen Karcher, line 6 says, You are paying for this connection with sighs, tears and sorrows. It is not your fault. You are surrounded by the wrong people. I'm not sure if its advising me that i will get the job but it will encounter difficulty from other people, or if I shouldn't bother putting in the tender.

All advice appreciated
Thanks

Hi dancing flame

Just in case the comment could be useful

Stephen Karcher, line 6 says, You are paying for this connection with sighs, tears and sorrows. It is not your fault. You are surrounded by the wrong people.

Well, that is what Karcher says..but for a text-based analysis what really matter is what the text of the Yijing said.

And the text of the line is clear "wu jiu", wich means "no harm" (other posibilities are "no fault" and "no blame"). So, it would work out that you find "no harm". By the way, the text has not a single word about being sorrounded by "wrong people".

Now, going one step further from the text. In the model described in the text of line 45.6 we can see someone who is in the present within a difficult situation (either external context or internal emotions), and even so he/she can manage to finally get out without damage. This is reinforced in line 12.6.. the obstruction finally ends.

So, the model described in the answer you got seems to imply that, attending that job, you may be able to put an end to a very dificult current context. After all the sighs, you could be able to achieve the state of "no harm".

Best wishes

Thanks so much, that's really helpful. I've only got Stephen Karcher - How to Use the I Ching and Total I Ching - so that's all I've got to go on. Sounds like I definitely need to invest in other interpretations when I can. Can recommend any?
