My sexuality has been hidden even from me recently ... and I think when I walked away from that creative project a few weeks ago I missed an opening. It's partly perimenapause, I think. So after realizing all this, I asked Yi "How to Open my Sexual Energy Channel?" and received 1 unchanging. Wow - creativity. But can any of you help point to exactly WHAT this means I should do? I need an energy release or shift I think, or a vibrational shift.

No, just a man who floats your boat - what hexagram signifies potent male energy more than this

Thanks Trojan. I have found a man that could float my boat, though at the moment we are more anchored to shore. I asked a followup, "What is needed for X and I to be in the same vibration to share a sexual relationship with each other?" I got 9.5 to 26

Bingo! Spot on call.

Hey - how come you know so much about that anyway? Hm? :)

It would seem that it is down to you to start the action with X, once you do then there will be a sharing of great pleasure, it calls for intimacy and taking a chance.

So the cure for a missing libido is a good man? OK guys ... I'll take it.

Willowfox, must it be me? I want it to be him to make the move. Doesn't the line talk about collaborating? Tell me more about what you are seeing here. I value your thoughts.

Or, I think the action I could take is to meditate to get myself in vibrational alignment with what I desire - him pursuing me and me being receptive to his advance?

Hex 9.5 says that if you cooperate together then you will have great pleasure but if you are waiting for him, how are you going to achieve this getting together, someone has to make a move, that is why I suggested you.

Hex. 1 need not refer to a particular person, it could simply mean excitement.

How to generate excitement? It starts with small things: titillation, suggestion, flirtation, cooperation, and let's not forget imagination (1).

With whom - sounds like a separate question.

I think it's also interesting the way 'having truth, rich in ones neighbor' fits, in 9.5, regarding sexual compatibility.

The restraint expressed in 26 also works with the idea of foreplay, just as 9 does, rather than rushing ahead, the way 1 tends to do. Especially young 1's.

Yeah, so how to merge all this? It is a separate question about X from what I overall need (1) make a sexual comeback. I am not yet sure about making the move, but I do sincerely wish to cooperate with him. What about the restraint in 9 and 26? How to live this?

You know, I was headed over here to say exactly that. Good to have you here, Meng :) .

Maybe the energy can be 'blocked' if, as a woman, you imagine being sexual just means being Receptive?

The restraint in 9 and 26 is the kind that also nurtures, cultivates and accumulates. 9.5 could be the moment where cultivating yourself in small ways opens up the possibility of expansion into much bigger places. Bound together, with truth and presence (no being in two minds, no second-guessing yourself), rich in your neighbour.

In the broadest sense, sexual energy is all there is. Sexy people are excited about life. I suppose that fatalism (i.e. fem fatale or a Jim Morrison type) has its own edgy and fatalistic sexual appeal, but in the bigger picture, it too merely presents an opposite: one component of unity. There's probably nothing closer to truth than sex. I mean, sex without any social contamination or stigmas.

Some believe the Kama Sutra was written by a celibate monk. Some say otherwise. Makes no difference really, life is sexual energy.

9.5 is a sort of mutual friendliness and 26 is Knowledge. How about sharing a book with him that you've enjoyed? Something cheerful you could then discuss? The balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet? The story of O?

Nice try, but no prize. Sexual energy is one kind of energy. Gravity isn't sexual. Light isn't sexual. Compassion isn't sexual. Consciousness isn't sexual. The energy of an exploding volcano isn't sexual, no matter how much orgasmic expression you want to project onto it.

There's a lot more to the universe than sex. When I was 22, I thought sex was all there is. I'm different now. Still sexy though. Can't help it.

OK I thank you all for these thought provoking posts. I did ask Yi to tell me about the groups advice that I make the first move - got 42.2.3 to 9 which seems pretty positive. We actually had a good connection today, very sweet. I am "slowly accumulating and cultivating" I think, for now.

Gravity is the opposite of levity
Light is opposite dark
Compassion is the opposite of indifference
Breathing out is made possible by breathing in, explosion/implosion

Yes, you are still sexy, you still oppose.

Also, recall the context of my comments: "In the broadest sense, sexual energy is all there is."

I do think the I Ching is sexual, if considering all the possible relationships that exist between 64 complex individuals. Even repulsion is a symptom of sexual energy, such as when facing two same poles of a magnet toward each other. It's just a matter of the prevailing condition of the time. Even lovers argue.. lol, perhaps most of all.

I think you're confusing sexuality with polarity.

Sexuality is the psychological and physical energy involved in sexual attraction, sexual activity, and baby-making. Gravity and light and light and heat and cold and our disagreement have nothing to do with sexual attraction, sexual activity, or baby making. Just trust me on this one.

Very well. I'm not interested in changing your mind, which appears very set.

But I am curious. You study the I Ching, but yet you don't see the entirety of creation expressed in hexagrams 1 and 2? Or else you see this father and mother of creation as being asexual?

OK, I am enjoying the dialogue of sexual energy. Now how about jumping in on this latest reading regarding my same issue? I spent time with the man yesterday and today, not making any propositions, I did help him with something simple, which he overwhelmingly thanked me for, and he certainly now knows that I care about him, and although he didn't confess to the same directly, he told him how good it feels to know someone is looking out for you (him), brought me a gift and then made plans to take me out again. I asked Yi the best way to proceed with him, and got 44.2.6 to 31 Now how to interpret this especially in light of the other recent readings?

Do you think my mind's very set because I've disagreed with one of your ideas in a series of half a dozen posts? You don't even know me.

But I am curious. You study the I Ching, but yet you don't see the entirety of creation expressed in hexagrams 1 and 2?

I see the polarity of existence expressed in hexes 1 and 2, but only its polarity, not its entirety.

Or else you see this father and mother of creation as being asexual?

I use the term 'father' and 'mother' in a biological sense most often. Cosmologically, I suppose I use 'father' and 'mother' in a poetic, symbolic way to describe the forces of creation sometimes. But I don't ascribe the word 'sexuality' to anything in creation higher than genitalia and everything they entail. The earth circles the sun because of forces different to the ones that generate babies. If you choose to view it all as one force (or two forces, both of which are sexual), then go ahead, but I choose to view the universe as containing a vastness and power that includes sexuality but which goes way, way , way beyond mere sexuality.

It seems you take a very literal approach.

Whatever works for you.

Hi Shefa. I think "slowly accumulating and cultivating" appears to be a theme across these readings. Further, I think the lines of 44 speak more to what wouldn't be best, rather than to what would be best. Not that the seductive nature of 44 is necessarily bad, but that it can not be assumed that your partner is automatically tuned into where you're coming from. Basically your passion belongs to you. If you wish to introduce it to your partner, then 31 is a more suitable approach; that is to take it slow and gentle, which is how you've described your last encounter.

Yes, agreeing with Meng here. Hexagram 9 particularly emphasizes NOT taking the lead.

Thanks for your thoughts. Getting 44 and 31 together is confusing.

So, not taking the lead, but being seductive and influential in a slowly accumulating and cultivating kind of way? OK, I am up for the challenge. I guess that would position him to come to me (what I really want) if I set the stage well enough. Do you agree?

The guy might just the wonderful icing on the cake. Have you tried asking the i ching for some additional info on how you might go about it?

Yes I did. I got 9.5 to 26 and 44.2.6 to 31 -- see above. Unless you are suggesting there is a different question that I should consider asking?
