This is of course just my own rambling. Again, don't mean to sound like I know what I'm talking about.
The straight and narrow directions are heedless of most of this world. The most respectable man in the world should be permitted, if it is his choice, to enjoy women's toes a little too much. It's these little flaws in the art of our lives that let evil spirits out. Life needs to explore its options and this can't always be done only inside of the mind.
Definitely. Suggestions?
Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner
Yeah, granted. But I'm looking for something a bit more uh...objective. This oracle is already way too subjective to be useful sometimes. See, my problem with 24.1 is this: when I draw it, it always arises in a situation where I'm not sure what to do exactly or how to handle the situation.
dobro said:And that's because sometimes the Yi gives me a snapshot of what's happening and sometimes it gives me a snapshot of what *needs* to happen. By looking at my situation, I can usually know which sort of snapshot I'm being given. But I always have a lot of trouble with 24.1 for some reason. So if it has only ONE meaning, that will help me a lot lol.
dobro said:See, I'm the sort of person who can *always* see both sides of a question and it paralyzes me sometimes. (Which is one reason I use the Yi - it gives me a hint about what's *really* happening.)
dobro said:So looking at how I feel and what my perspective is, like you suggest, when I ask the question is not particularly useful for me, because it doesn't get me useful results. That's why Chris Lofting's approach is so unuseful for me - it's the ultimate subjectivity that gets me nowhere. I'm not saying this approach isn't useful for some peope; but for me, it gets me nowhere. If Chris reads this, he'll probably post a page-long response with ideas we're all familiar with, but it doesn't change the basic fact of the experience I'm reporting. I don't need best fit approaches; I need to know what the damn line means. lol
And all these years I thought the words were "Jojo was a man who thought he was a woman But he knew it wouldn't last "
You're thinking of the second verse...
Sweet Loretta Martin thought she was a woman
But she was another man
All the girls around her say she's got it coming
But she gets it while she can
Chris, Your analysis makes it sound to me like the return is a bad thing, like someone going home in defeat, maybe even being ridiculed as in, "What makes you think you're so special?" I was thinking it was more like getting group support so as to be more able to?
What would you say are the similarities/differences between 24.2 and 39.3?
From a universal line position perspective (XOR), all line position 2s are controlled by hexagram 7...
Small detour, everybody - sorry.
Chris, what's your take on interpreting all line position 2s using Hex 13? Or don't you think that's significant?
