Newbie here... Interested in your thoughts...

So, I'm relatively new to casting with this method of divination, though I have experience for many years with the Tarot. I'm hoping for a fresh perspective on these readings. I cast for three separate questions today and would love to know what you feel about the responses- any or all of them. The situation is between my ex and I. We've recently been back in touch, though we haven't seen each other due to geographical distance. We have discussed nothing of our personal feelings, but overall my desire to be in touch has been received enthusiastically by him and we've recently apologized to each other for any pain we may have caused each other. I also get no indication of anyone else in the picture.

The questions asked (and their respective answers) are below. I'm going to only give my own basic read on the answers- more emotionally derived. In particular, I find the last two readings interesting because of the presence of a hexagram that I've found, in searching for interpretations, many people seem to be confused by.

First question: What is going to happen between he and I?
Answer: Hexagram 30 (lines 1 & 2 changing) to hexagram 50.
My initial feeling about this reading is that it is a very organic answer. Clinging like fire to a situation that was often very comfortable and loving, and which ended for exaggerated reasons. In my opinion, this can be either good or bad, or a mixture of both.

Second question: What are his feelings for me?
Answer: Hexagram 62 (line 3 changing) to hexagram 16.
I read this answer as cautious optimism- the good feelings mixed with feelings of uncertainty.

Third question: What will be the outcome if we attempt a romantic relationship again?
Answer: Hexagram 16 unchanging.
Okay, I found it very interesting to receive hexagram 16 again here, especially as it plays such a part in the second casting. Yet, I'm not entirely clear on what it might mean.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

I think 62.3 tempers the often exaggerated sensationalism (excited emotions) of 16.

And 30 lines 1 and 2 is a grounding influence of a controlled fire, best for developing the balance of a wholesome relationship, cooked in the cauldron of 50.

In practical terms, I'd be cautious of and recognize the rebounding effect of the separation, and not pouring old food back into the empty cauldron. That is not to say that a healthier and further refined relationship can't eventually develop, but be cautious of impetuous or passionate reactions based on a hunger to fill that empty place within each of you.

Thank you for your insight! I definitely agree with everything you've said here. It's a new and developing situation and so it makes sense to me that slow and steady wins the race, in this case. Thanks again!
