Hello all,
I'm planning a trip to see a prior ex and did a few readings with the IC about that. BTW, these questions come from a prior thread which I got help about (thanks, Willowfox!) and am posting anew since it involves a new set of questions about upcoming course of action.

I wanted to prepare some (the trip feels very amorphous to me and I was looking for more clarity) before going, so I asked "what will help me feel closer to C and increase my confidence and faith now?" and got 45.2.4 changing to 29. Which I took to mean contact C. ?
Could that be contact C about the trip...I'm not sure here--any ideas?

Because then I asked "what can I expect if I send an email to C now, about my desire to come see C the 2nd weekend of Sept?" and got 51.1.5 changing to 45. (my dates are not set yet--my schedule may change to make the visit the 3rd weekend of Sept).

I then asked "what can I expect if I don't contact C and go ahead with the trip to see C anyway, the 2nd weekend of Sept?" I got 54.1 changing to 40 which I'm not sure how to interpret since I don't feel I have much power with 54.1!

I then asked "what can I expect if I contact C and mention wanting to see C in person? and got 59.2.6 changing to 8.

Finally, I asked "what is the correct action now regarding the upcoming trip to see C?" and got 34 non changing.


Any insights would be most appreciated!
Thank you and many blessings:)

Hexagram 45.2.6 to 39

Relating to my above inquiries, I did find this interpretation of Hexagram 45 for my changing lines: http://theabysmal.wordpress.com/2006/10/24/i-ching-hexagram-45/

"Six in the second place means;
Letting oneself be drawn
Brings good fortune and remains blameless.
If one is sincere,
If furthers one to bring even a small offering.

In the time of GATHERING TOGETHER, we should make no arbitrary choice on the way. There are secret forces at work, leading together those who belong together. We must yield to this attraction; then we make no mistakes. Where inner relationships exist, no great preparations and formalities are necessary. People understand one another forthwith, just as the Divinity graciously accepts a small offering if it comes from the heart."

"Nine in the fourth place means:
Great good fortune. No blame.

This describes a man who gathers people around him in the name of his ruler. Since he is not striving of any special advantages for himself but is working unselfishly to bring about general unity, his work is crowned with success, and everything becomes as it should be."

I wonder why I thought it meant to contact C? (I think because it's been on my mind as to whether or not I should contact C, with regard to this upcoming trip, as C is not aware I'm planning to make the trip!)

The other thing I wonder about with my initial question and this answer is the changing Hexagram 29--especially as it relates to danger.
I saw the following on the same site, regarding Hex 29:

"Thus likewise, if one is sincere when confronted with difficulties, the heart can penetrate the meaning of the situation. And once we have gained inner mastery of a problem, it will come about naturally that the action we take will succeed. In danger all that counts is really carrying out all that has to be done – thoroughness – and going forward, in order not to perish through tarrying in the danger."

I wonder if the original question I asked of the IC--"what will help increase my confidence with regard to this situation"--is being answered as something like:

To know that what I'm doing in the first place is sincere with regard to this upcoming trip so no great formalities are needed to prepare; and that it will be a success to bring about unity since it comes from a good place...and that continuing to remain sincere in my heart (come from my heart) and carrying out what needs to be done, can lead me to solving any problems here and away from danger. Any insights on this intrepretation?

And perhaps the other questions I asked, after asking this initial one, were not needed (based on what I'm seeing with Hex 45.2.4) and are only serving to "stir me up" ?
I really appreciate your patience with me on here, I am new to using the IC and to online forums! Much thanks for all your help.
Blessings,
:)

I asked "what will help me feel closer to C and increase my confidence and faith now?" and got 45.2.4 changing to 29.

Look at line 45.2 which says that as you are attracted to her, that is all you need, so keep the faith as nothing special needs to be done, so be confident, honest and just go as you are but a little gift might be appropriate. Just be sincere.

then I asked "what can I expect if I send an email to C now, about my desire to come see C the 2nd weekend of Sept?" and got 51.1.5 changing to 45.

She will certainly be surprised, even shocked at first but when she laughs that will be a good sign but anyway it won't upset the status quo if you remain cool and calm.


I then asked "what can I expect if I don't contact C and go ahead with the trip to see C anyway, the 2nd weekend of Sept?" I got 54.1 changing to 40

She will forgive you.

I then asked "what can I expect if I contact C and mention wanting to see C in person? and got 59.2.6 changing to 8.

If she she acts defensive and tries to say no, then it is down to you to just get on with it and do your very best to melt her resistance, if any, but whatever happens you need to go.

Finally, I asked "what is the correct action now regarding the upcoming trip to see C?" and got 34 non changing.

The correct action is to follow what you believe to be the right thing to do, so if you believe that your destiny is to go, then don't hesitate , just go.

Willowfox, thank you so much, you have no idea how much your clarity and brevity help me interpret what the IC says and also how it resonates inside my heart--the lines you write :)

I agree with you about the need to go--I know in my heart this trip is the next step in C and I's relationship (I think somewhere in C's heart she believes this as well--though I have no way of knowing this factually) and yes, C is someone I would like to pursue a joyful, loving, long term union with. I will for sure go:)

It's interesting to see what you wrote about 54.1--that C will forgive me for not "announcing" myself; I have never done anything like this with C before--nothing as "large" as flying many miles to see her--esp without telling C ahead of time.

As the IC counseled, contacing C to tell her I want to see her may not result in C "grabbing the bull by the horns" and telling me a good weekend to come! (59.2.6>8, above) so yes, it seems like, in the end, I have to choose which weekend myself and just go.

One issue Willowfox... I got favorable IC answers for travelling there either the 2nd or 3rd weekends in Sept (prior post). I am leaning toward the 3rd weekend of Sept because C is a school teacher and the 2nd weekend is the first week back to school.

I know you mentioned going the 2nd weekend, over the 3rd, a few days ago when I gave some backstory about C and I's relationship. Can you elaborate on that to clarify for me?
(The 3rd weekend may also be better in terms of my work schedule. However, I am prepared to go whichever weekend seems most favorable!)

Thank you much, Willowfox, and those reading/wishing to comment.
Your clarity enlightens me and helps my work with the IC.

I mentioned already that I like both the 2nd and 3rd weekends, so there isn't a problem.

I was just double checking, thank you Willowfox :)

I also tried this question:
"What kind of experience, in terms of our romantic bond, would it be to see C the 2nd weekend of Sept?" and got 17.4.5.6> 27 which I took to mean keep to my intentions, leave my ego at the door and all will be balanced (well-nourished). Am I on track? Thoughts?

I tried the same question for the 3rd weekend of Sept and got 43.1.2.3.4.5> 2.
I've not gotten a Hexagram with so many changing lines before! Wow. Not sure how to interpret that one...

Willowfox, can you help me interpret both of these answers further?

(I know I've asked you for much help and you've been wonderful! I was led to this site by the IC--after several confusing attempts to decipher readings by myself, the IC gave me a hex that basically said-- "you're trying to do by yourself what you can ask others who are wiser and better at this to help you with--you weren't meant to do this all on your own--seek help!")

Thank you, Willowfox, as always :)
Blessings.

I personally think that you are overdoing the questions to back up your own confidence, so it is now time to be brave, saddle your horse and get ready to ride into battle. It will be September tomorrow, coming soon a date with destiny.

Look at Hex 43 as a break through because of your determination to see this through to the end. So, go, say your what needs to be said and may the best man win.

Look at the lines 17.4,5,6 are they all very positive, so follow your star and hopefully you will have a lot to say to each other and a strong bond will develop.
