marriage question for another person

[yamabushi]

My friend will divorce as it look like.
He is very disturbed and he asked me that I ask only one question; Will he stay in marriage?
So he asked for oracle.
Answer; 61.1.5>4

We also ask before; what he can do to stay in marriage? Answer; 10.1.5>64

What should I tell him?

While 61 is very good for marriage, here the moving lines are not particularly good, and the resultant hexagram, 4, is very problematical for marriage. There is nothing that can be done, except to wait and see. While your friend may be sincere and truthful, it is not clear that his spouse is with him. It is as if she were in a faraway place. As for what he can do, the 10 is very difficult for marriage. There are many, many stumbling blocks, even though the couple are well-suited to each other. With 10, there is nothing to do but to act with politeness and decorum. However, the moving lines indicate that there is an escape for one, and danger for the other. The resultant 64 is also very difficult with marriage. Again, there is a basic compatibility here, but 64 is in the short term hopeless for marriage. The only thing your friend can do is to wait and persevere and hope for the best. But I am not so sanguine to say that this marriage is going to last.
