What you most need to know about earth: it’s powerful. It doesn’t faint at the prospect of supporting another tree. A clear response to any anxieties about whether one will be strong enough to sustain things.
I almost feel you should act as if this problem with the neighbour is simply a fact of nature...like rain...and winter...and traffic jams..and colds
Not to belabour my own opinion on it, but wouldn't the I Ching give some other hexagram for that kind of message?
That said, another thought comes to mind: perhaps the advice is literally to allow the solution to present itself. It may not necessarily mean that you stay put, but just that some other solution may be in the works and that action on your part right now will not bring the solution.
Thus the superior man who has breadth of character
Carries the outer world.
Also with two you have to make room for good things to come into your life, if you hyperfocus on this neighbour then things related to the neighbour are going to be the only things you'll have made space for.
I had a straight 5 years of bad neighbours in every place I lived, I ended up changing cities and that solved the problem. Its a problem that doesnt have a straight forward answer.

People see noise and lifestyle very differently. I once lived in a house where the upstairs was occupied by the landlords 16 year old son who played duv duv music all day at full volume. My housemate had never noticed the sound of the music until I pointed it out to him... I had no idea how he could not have heard it , but I guess he just didnt allow it into his mental space at all. It drove me insane and I moved out.

The last apartment I moved from had become intolerable when my upstairs neighbour's sibling moved in - nice gal, but had no concept how loudly she walked on the floors (and she wasn't large or anything). She also had a kitten - yes, kitten - that somehow had the ability to wake me up just by its tearing around upstairs - at all hours.
