Hey all :) I hope everyone is happy and healthy. Wondering if anyone had any insight into the advice I’ve been offered. My question was: “what needs to be eliminated in this situation?” I asked this question specifically after receiving Hex 30.6 For the question: please offer me advice on how best to tackle this situation. I took 30.6 to mean evaluate carefully which elements are worth keeping and what needs to be eliminated. Maybe I’m double dipping and over asking rather than doing the surrendering work which will allow the answer to become apparent. But 🤷🏻*♀️ I’m here and I asked and am now hoping someone not tangled in the mire can help me to better understand. My interpretation of The answer. I’m thinking it’s saying: stop trying to bring order to this. Stop trying to control it. There is a strong creative force moving that it will resolve naturally.

I think I see this reading quite differently than "less is more."
What needs to be eliminated? 41.2.5 >42
42 - Increase - the context is about more, not less.
41 is generally about decrease, compensating sacrifice, giving up things to bring balance. But the lines specifically -
41.2 You *can* increase others without decreasing yourself. Do more, not less for others.
41.5 This indicates fate has huge increases in store for you.
Of course this could be the Yi just encouraging you, for who knows when this is going to be? But the Yi apparently does seem to want you to keep giving as much as you have been.

Hey- Thought I’d come back to this as I got an answer very quickly. My question was what needs to be eliminated answer 41.2.5Mandarin : less is more LL: huge increases in store and I can do more w out decreasing myself . Both were correct. I needed to hear both interpretations. I initially followed the advice that less is more and I stepped back intent on just trusting things would resolve themselves. And they did.Last night. I was in a conversation with someone who is a friend but becoming a lot more. I felt like he was the thing I needed to decrease (set firmer boundaries) because I am not in a position to fully commit to something with him although I want to. Rather than just bluntly having the conversation I felt like less was more. And allowed the situation to unfold. LL your interpretation comes into play because during our texts then subsequent phone call things did increase. L.5 Weird text messaging glitches/ spell check errors typed out random words that were way off (on both ends) but that forced us into a conversation about what was happening between us. The situation and feelings between us kept increasing and increasing and increasing which felt good. L.2 you can increase others without decreasing yourself. He received a job offer in Nairobi which meant that we could continue to nurture this really beautiful relationship between us. But neither of us at the moment have to make changes in our lives. He is a professional athlete and I’m healing from the ending of a very serious relationship. I wanted to take time to fully heal before I committed to something new but know that if he and I were to further things, they’d escalate quickly which made me feel torn. I actually feel very relieved because now I can enjoy this and build it without taking away from my healing process.
