Hexagram 24 unchanging

[simon ian]

Tonight I asked the oracle

What state of mind you prefer your querents to be in when consulting?

I got 24 unchanging. Returning (?)

Any thoughts my friends?

24 says to me that the yi wants us to feel like a soldier returning to a LOved One, always there ready to welcome us back from the confusions of life..

Overall judgment: Like thunder in the earth, I prefer my querents to grow sensitive to vitalities by an inward focus.

Text:

24 Judgment
Return. Success.
Going out and coming in without error.
Friends come without blame.
To and fro goes the way.
On the seventh day comes return.
It furthers one to have somewhere to go.

Rephrased:

Return to the origin. Success.
Considering far and near without error.
Friends come with shared readings.
To and fro goes the way of balance.
After a time comes insight.
It furthers one to have a specific query.


24 Image
Thunder within the earth:
The image of the Turning Point.
Thus the kings of antiquity closed the passes
At the time of solstice.
Merchants and strangers did not go about,
And the ruler
Did not travel through the provinces.

Inward looking, contemplative, with the passes of the body closed.

In a word; Relaxed.

Interesting !!!

In Reading Cycle, we made a group question “what attitude to take when it seems Yi hasn’t answer the question” and we got 24
If I recall correct , someone here said 24 is like the restart/reset button.

When consult Yi, I try ( to the degree is possible) to erase any thoughts about the subject in question , like clearing a blackboard and start again to write. It fits in a way with the answer you got
