Job Decision Needs to be made ASAP, so scared

[Spiraloops]

Good afternoon everyone. I have been offered and recently accepted a great opportunity for a new job, which I was very happy about because my boss in my current position is quite abusive (although it ebbs and flows). I've been looking to get out for a long time, and after a great vacation I came back to this offer which I thought was a good sign.

However, I have been really trying to follow my gut lately and I'm having serious feelings about "waiting" and maybe even rescinding my acceptance. I dont know why. Iching has given me quite a few answers that to me point to "WAIT". I'm scared, I cant really wait much longer and my boss really is a jerk so I dont want to stay here.

most recently I got: "Is it time to give notice? 15.5.6 to 53 (yes? carefully?)
"what is the true nature of this new job? 30.1-56 (good opportunity?)
"How should I proceed with quitting today? (47.2-45, then 60.6. to 61 which makes me think, sacrifice this job and wait for a better offer)

What do you think? Please let me know, and know that I am so grateful.

hi D,

Making a leap into a new job can be an exhilarating and frightening . . I think having second thoughts is part of a natural process of change so it's rather tricky to say whether this is what's happening to you or there's something wrong that's triggers your instincts . .

30.1 shows you starting a new venture and keeping your eyes wide open about it, trying not to miss any clues or hidden dangers - that's a wise thing to do but imo you shouldn't let it get away with your decision - making process

Your last 2 readings seem to be speaking a lot about your state of mind . . 47 most times shows someone internally stressed to the point of disregarding the good signs going on out there - something's eating you up and it causes you to keep on adding harsher and harsher limitations upon the way you understand the situation . . You haven't given us much in terms of specifics here but unless you clear your mind about your inner anxiety about this, you won't be able to move with ease and faith

Your 15 to 53 feels a bit shaky to me .. makes me wanna say that it, too, speaks about your inner struggle with this: 'yeah, I should make my move and tend to my own needs' on the one hand (line 5) and then ' but oh, what if I"m being in the wrong/unreasonable/ arrogant with all this?' (line 6) . . could be there's an issue of loyalty (hx53) going on there for you . .


not sure how helpful this is .. do let us know how it turns out for you!

"Is it time to give notice? 15.5.6 to 53 (yes? carefully?)

This is a positive response from Yi, since all lines in hex 15 are positive. The meaning seems to be that you will need to use a bit of force or self-discipline to overcome your own resistance to change right now. It really is time to move on, yet you continue to watch and wait.

Thank you

Wow, thank you so much for the insights Rodaki and ginnie. This shows me I have so much to learn about interpretation. I tend to lean in the direction of fear & I need to be more objective, as readings are a personal thing & therefore will speak to me more than the situation. Either way the choice is already made, and I thank you for helping me with clarifying my misgivings. You were both right I think, and I will be giving my notice tomorrow. It definitely took a self-kick in the butt. Loyalty is an issue too, maybe like stockholms syndrome!
I will keep you updated if you'd like. Thank you again.

Yes, please keep us updated! That's the way the whole community learns and grows. You know, it is not unusual to have hesitations and second thoughts on the verge of a big change. That's only human. Good luck!
