I'm yet again turning to the help of the oracle and consequently yours, all fellow IChingers!
So now dreading stress of moving I asked
"What do you think (the oracle) if we move?" 2.1>24
"What do you if we stayed until the end of the summer and move then?" 34.3>54
"What if we stayed?" 27.1.3>52
Completely confused, looks like I'm getting negative prognosis on all of the questions I asked
"Iching, what would you do with this apartment if you were us" 24.1.2>7
Hi Trojina!
Thank you yet again for the reply!
There are a few things I would like to address.
First of all, how I formulate my questions. I came to realize that after talking to the oracle for quite some time I am getting more and more confused on how for talk to her.
I see IChing to be a gracious female, mother earth, if you wish, who I can talk to honestly, and ask whatever the h'''''''''' I want. Therefore, I ask her a lot on her opinion if I do A or B, or what would she do if she were in my shoes? Maybe that is why I am still confused how to talk to the Oracle.
Second of all, back to my general confusion. We all tend to ask a particular question being hopeful to get a detailed scenario of what would happen if we did or didn't do something. Why is the Oracle making us even more confused by sometimes addressing something completely different, something what is in the air, but what was asked about?
I feel like in my case IChing wasn't giving me scenarios of what to happen if I stayed or left the apartment. It just kept addressing the issue in general - stop asking me questions, you are pushing for the answer too hard, it is up to you to decide.
So by giving these sort of responses, the oracle defeats her purpose - of giving clarity to the situation.
I have to think about 2.1>24 primarily like you, Trojina, suggested. But again I asked for oracle's clarification, but got confused even more. I understand that it is up to me to see what frost will turn onto ice in the future, but again... I asked the oracle for clarification, and it feels like she is leaving me stranded.
What do you think, Trojina?
Ahh, Trojina, see, this is where you have a bigger perspective. I hadn't read or participated in Vikk's other threads (and still haven't, since I'm trying to get out of the house this morning - maybe later), and knew nothing about her marriage dilemma. Good point! And the little dialogues are really helpful!
(1) I can see how you might get "go your own way" out of these readings (the hexagram 24s? I'm remembering the example you gave about the horrible job you were once in, and kept getting hexagram 24 lines, I think?) So maybe Yi is reminding Vikk in these readings to leave her husband? If that's what the other readings, specifically about her marriage, seemed to say - if that was the consensus - if that's what Vikk thinks is right---?
Having said that, I don't see anything in these readings that sounds like allusions to a marriage, though.
These readings also don't seem to be saying there's any urgency here, as there might be if Vikk is now faced with not one, but TWO big life decisions - her marriage, plus where to live.
Maybe Yi is saying to drag out the apartment decision ("use a net" etc.) UNTIL Vikk decides about her marriage? Maybe Yi is suggesting a way to tease those things apart a little bit, so Vikk isn't overwhelmed by two huge, intertwined messes at once?
NOT sure, though..
As anyone can get any answer about marriage, ranging from 1 -64 then how would one define an answer alluding to marriage ? It is not as if all marriage answers come up as 31 or 53....marriage is a metaphor in Yi mostly while being literal at times.
Hi Ragini,
It's actually not my reading; it's Vikk's. I'm only commenting on it, same as you .
What do you think it is saying?
