me against the army 2.2, 4.6

[dragona]

Hello :bows:
once before I asked about these men, but roles have changed, one is in my heart, another keeps asking the same question for 3 years now.
What is our potential (now, after everything)?
2.2<7 for the one who stays silent after I offered a hand
4.6<7 for the one who wants an adventure

Even tho I think it is safe to presume I will stay as I am, alone plus broken hearted, for the sake of the lines and understanding, I ask for some help with the interpretation.
2.2 sounds a bit empty to me, "sure, great, there is an opened field" (not sure if it is still so even) I get the idea that Yi is telling me to wait, wait, wait....
4.6 is a new drown for me and I think something is important to understand here but I don`t comprehend the meaning..punish or do not punish disliked behavior? Correct my stand as I am the one with the problem?
LiSe`s interpretation gives the idea of suggesting things rather then anything else...but
Need I say that both are very firm in their convictions, ways, plans....I guess I admire that as I lack discipline (not stubborness) and really need some inspiration and allies in my life now. Feels I am being punished for wanting it.
Thanks:bows:

Not to Harmen:

I am sympathetic to Harmen's reading.

Thanks for the link, did find charly`s translation also within the threads but my computer is breaking, hard to follow the threads of thoughts coming this way, breaks the concentration.

Bradfords translation gives the idea of working within many possiblities with 2.2, like there are wast possibilities within the theritory of abstract thoughts and mathematical theories, formulas; in that sense. That is what I meant by "empty feeling". Perhaps, "it is/feels great to think about it in terms of possibilities you can derive from it. Food for thoughts."
I understand Harmen`s relating to this issue to be taken as there is a great ammounth of work to be done here (at the crossroads?). Perhaps I am beeing heard, since it feels like an fruitful ground?
No idea.

As for 4.6, could someone share their experiance? Perhaps "do not punish the behavior you have instigated yourself"? I get the feeling there is a change of approach necessary in order to understand the connection better - or there is nothing special to understand at all?
Also not very encouraging feedback there.

So totaly unrelated, or perhaps not, I asked for an insight and guidance for my love life (sure would like to have one)
14.2, 5 <13
Fire and creative heaven change places....hm, be creative, withold the desire, spread the words that will inspire....done that IC, now what? I need that in return, actually.

Whine,whine, but I mannage to make it rhyme

Whining's OK. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Your computer is breaking in sympathy with your heart.

14.2.5 > 13

14 is economic activity. Get busy and make something to sell. Line 2 is action. Line 5 is communication. Study the market. Talk with people who are in the line of business you wish to enter. 13 suggest joining, for example, join a cooperative of fellow producers. And what will this activity do for your love life? If you get out in public and move around, you will meet someone who will satisfy your needs.

Correction, Tom. Comp is not that symphatetic at all, otherwise it would not help with my nerves werecking, it would be good enough to cooperate.
How do we turn a question on love into a work related one? I know everything is connected, etc but...
I will probably have to pospone craft idea some, another prospect has opened.
This is why I would like to gain some understanding of this mess finally, to shift my attention with eased heart. But I get no help, even tho cast looks auspicious.

The squeaky wheel gets the grease. , gosh, wish i knew that one some 100 yrs ago.

How do we turn a question on love into a work related one?

The heart has a body and mind. Commercial work may be your way into love, as hexagram 14 suggests to me.

 

[dragona]

How is hex 14 connected to the economy or commertial work? I see hex 14 as a very positive, almost like a good, non fleeting aboundance, when one posseses a great amounth of something and is able to give it away, share. Is that the idea?

Naah, I should start with something soon but it is not the field for that sort of thing, nor a commertial job. And if I was to start with my little undertaking, it would not be something men would be interested in.
I rarely like anybody anyway, so it is hard for me to let go after so much energy invested in an rare occasion of mutual attraction.
I did make an gift of that kind, but...

"Possession in Great Measure" is about wealth.
