Insights needed: 2.1.3.5. >63

[foxx777]

Hi, all:
I have been having multiple problems - relating, finances, stress, mishaps - regarding a conference I am trying to pull off in a few months. It is depressing and agitating the hell out of me because it has personal, professional, and spiritual meaning for me. I asked the I Ching if I would be able to surmount all these various difficulties and pull off a success.

I received 2.1.3.5 >63: I believe 63 is really not the future in this case but the context: I have been through a similar task in the past. Hence, the symbolic meaning.

Any insights would be helpful and most appreciated. :bows:

From the Emotional I Ching:

Hexagram 02 is devoid of substance, leading to an admiration for someone/ something outside. A sense of emptiness inside develops a need for balance which is achieved through the continuous absorption and nurturing of the outside; one is attracted to a goal of inner stillness rather than outer peace, achievable through devotion - the act of internalizing someone else's belief system. To be open to this requires the development of Absolute Trust and includes a degree of 'dual'-mindedness. Hexagram 02 serves as an example of the particular expression of the characteristics of hexagram 13 where the general sense of 'likemindedness' expressed in 13 is concentrated into hard core devotion and an attempt to be 'identical' minded.

Line 1
"The influences of pending darkness are almost unnoticeable; be wary."
Line 3
"In testing times one retains one's composition. It is possible to go about one's business but do not expect to complete anything."

Line 5
"One acquires the robes of a devotee [a uniform]. The beginning of understanding meaning and one's identity. This is a form of security."

In hexagram 63 we find the successful end of a journey masks the beginning of another. The mask of completion helps memory to distinguish events and some form of guide is useful for the new dangers ahead. The emphasis is on 'correctness' and completion.

Foxx777 you are yielding to this but it is not going
smoothly - are there elements out of your control ?
are there issues of delegation?

Somehow you learn and grow in this and it is completed.
Maybe you are overcomplicating things and it is complete-able
now (at least in its rudimentary form - I say this because of the
already across of 63)

I love LiSe Heyboer Yijing on this hexagram

Thanks, Hopex---Yes, indeed, I may be overcomplicating, and some elements which are out of my control should probably just not be overly dwelled on. Thanks so much! I will check out Lise Heboer on this!
