New year guidance question reading 7.1.6 to 41

[Matrona]

Hello I asked iching to tell me what should I pay attention to in the new year , what should stay the same what should I change. My mind went to health, family life, finances, business.. as I was concentrating to the question while casting my iching beads ( very special too because I made them together with the pouch and it's my first time using them). So I got the 7 hexagram with changing lines 1 and the 6th at the top which changes it to 41.
My take is that I order to have a fruitful year there must be self discipline , a clear vision /goal Also self love and good care of the financies is crucial because there lies the power for success. At some point the iching I think its a line suggests that ill intended personal urges or persons in my life shouldn't be rewarded I am not sure if the iching is referring to me or actual people . Also 41 suggests control of passions, anger and emotions as important. Refrain from feelings of anger that might have consequences? And that good timing is important to make a "sacrifice" in order flourish. I need to let go of something to gain strength?
Any help for interpretation from experienced readers please share.
Many thanks

Have a great year everyone, with love above all my friends ❤

7<> 41
For 2023:
Organise your world around you to get the best out of it that you can (7) then when you have created some stability turn the volume down (41) on those thoughts, emotions, actions, behaviours or other activities that no longer serve you in the way they used to. Turning the volume down will allow other alternative tunes the room to be heard.

Good Luck

I'd say the opposite, what you are being asked to reduce is seeing life as a series of attainments/goals. With lines 1 and 6 changing the whole of 7 has been gone through and 41 comes to the fore. Aren't you/haven't you already been quite self disciplined and goal focused? If so this reading could well be saying you can actually put less in that way, the sacrifices in 41 aren't huge, just 2 small bowls.


If you're coming from a place where your values have been caught up with delayed gratification, working more now to provide for later and so on then this could be a signal to slacken off that way of thinking.

If you don't recognise this as applying that's fine you can take it the way you have but that's the way I see it.

Thank you both very insightful responses, seeing in it now from different angles.
