I asked (in relation to the guy I'm back in touch with after our relationship went wrong a few months ago)...
"should I bring him back into my life and is he part of what I need to learn?
4:1,2,3,4 to 30

I'm interpreting 4 as me rather than him as I can be quite flighty, and easily distracted...but I'm not sure if I'm totally getting the wrong end of the stick. Seems like I have a lot to learn (maybe he does too)!!??

Its interesting anyway, as I've never had 4 with so many moving lines (could also be a response to me asking similar questions too often I suppose) Any help much appreciated, thank you!

Not claiming to have The One Answer here, but these are my thoughts on your hexagrams...

30. The Clinging is made up of two fire trigrams. I see it as representing two strong independent individuals who are each capable of maintaining their unique points of view - in other words, they are not dependent on each other. In relation to your question I think the Yi is telling you that the lesson before you with this man is to be able to maintain your independence. As you say, you find he brings out a certain flightiness in your energy and you find it easy to get distracted. Perhaps the lesson here is about NOT getting distracted.
The hexagram 4 suggests to me that you may think you can become involved with this person without risk, but unless you have really anchored the key lesson of 30 you could be setting yourself up for problems.

Bottom line, I think you've been through this experience with this man before and you already know where this ride goes. I advise you keep your distance.

Best wishes,
Rosada

thanks Rosada, that's really helpful. I think I need to explain a bit more though. He doesn't bring out my flightiness, quite the opposite. The flightiness and being distracted was how I reacted to men previously, my usual behaviour I suppose, and maybe a lingering tendency. I've always been very independent and quite frightened of being tied down. This is the first man I've seriously been drawn to making a commitment to and losing some of that independence (I'm in my mid 30's, so there have been a few opportunities to settle down). The way you describe 30 actually sounds like the kind of relationship I would like!! Food for thought either way...I'd be interested in any other interpretations...

The summary of the 4 lines suggests no, do not let him back, as its all very well to be in open contact with him but not anything else as that would be sheer folly on your part, and you will end up feeling silly.

Bit of feedback...we have decided to be friends, which feels right and comfortable, and to keep an open mind about what might happen in the future. Seems like a good way to keep my independence! Thanks for all your insight.
