Hi,
My birthday is around the corner, and I asked why should I expect from this new year in my life and I got 22
Even when I see this as a very nice hexagram fill with grace and beauty, however, my friend told me that sometime it is not as nice as it seems and I should remember that not evrything that shines is gold and I should be careful because someone or something could be just an illusion. If that is true, what a bummer!

What do you think?

Indeed 22 is a very pleasant hexagram, but it doesn't have much substance.

Your year ahead will be filled with external beauty. Maybe you'll work on your appearance and make it more appealing, or maybe you'll beautify your surroundings, etc. Maybe you'll meet someone so good-looking that you'll overlook their character, or maybe all these things together, and/or other manifestations of beauty. A lot depends on if you wished for something specific, when you cast this.

My best wishes for your birthday!

I was not thinking about anything special when I asked

Hello
I got 22 for my 35th birthday casting. I had a really lovely year - full of daily nice things. At the end of the year I wrote in my notebook - not much has happened that I can think of that is outstanding... things were normal really.

Looking back, I had two small children, I had a lovely life, swimming, dancing, going out with them, doing really small mundane things. We went camping on holiday to the seaside, we visited a friend in the counry. I made some lovely new friends......It was possibly a really blissful year, one of the best looking back. It was a beautiful, happy year full of the things that are not memorable, but the things which make life wonderful.
I think that the illusion refers to not seeing the beautiful things in front of you perhaps......being somewhere almost perfect but not seeing the beauty in that. Going bird watching for some rare species but only seeing sparrows....sort of thing.

It does depend a lot on what your thinking was behind the question for your year a little....I know you said that you were not thinking of anything specific, but it would still bias the result.
Have a good year...x

Thank you for sharing.
It make sense, the simple things that make life special but normally we don't pay much attention

One thing I wrote about that year. There was an an ice-cream parlour near my daughter's music teacher and because it was quite expensive, she always had the plain cone.... Sometimes she would have the flavoured cone, but this was a special treat. That year, on her birthday, aged 4, an old college friend of mine visited and took us to the ice-cream parlour that also had a restaurant. My friend gave her the ice-cream menu. Knickerbokerglories, sundaes, the whole works. She chose a plain cone. have something special I said, look Uncle X will buy you anything you want. No, it was the plain cone she wanted.

......I still, to this day do not know why especially when she always asked if she could have one of the ones on the wall... She remembers this even now and says that she only fancied one of the vanilla cones - and it was not to do with anything really. She really didnt want one of the big ice-creams........

And that plain vanilla cone made her happy... maybe that is the meaning of hexagram 22

Regarding 22, once i got 14 > 22. When i asked what i can expect about a little business i was starting. I sell plants and gardening stuff.

And yes, after a month of that question and hard work. I opened the business and it was beautiful. Plants everywhere, and people walking on the street just staring at it and smiling :D

I think it has to do with beauty, arts, and arranging things to be in order to whats inside. If you have a mess in the interior, you cant enjoy the beauty of 22. But it dosent take away that its beautiful nevertheless.

True. You need inner peace to be able to enjoy the simple things in life

Since I read youe note, I've been thinking about my vanilla cone, which is my family life and my love life, so I asked what I should expect from those areaq and got 9.2 37. Drawn back, returning.Good fortune.
And one of the interpretation said literally the Pleasure in ordinary things, which is exactly what we were talking about hexagram 22, Slow down, enjoy the beautiful things that are surrounding you and the grace of thosearound you

9.2 to 37 says that you should draw others to you, take the lead. So don't sit back and 'expect' things from those close, it's in your hand to make things happen. Combined with 22 unchanging, aim for beauty and grace, for surface issues, not for deeper substance or solutions to more serious problems - take the lead and make your life, and the life of those close to you, pleasant.
