Hello,
I have been having bouts of nausea, loose bowels and dizziness and have tried to figure out what is causing it to no avail. Other people (family, friends, customers at work) have said they have had the same kinds of symptoms and Dr.s just tell them it's different things, diverticulitis, gastritis, etc. I have been asking the Iching and have got various answeres, most often including hexagram 29. Today it happened again and I asked what the factors were causing this. I got:
32.1.4 > 11

Well, the lasting part I get (32) because it is enduring, but flow (11) I don't get, and I don't see a cause in the lines, just basically my reaction to it, trying to find a solution and finding nothing there (no game).

Next I asked, "what steps can I take to offset/prevent symptoms? and I got:
46.1.3 > 19

Well, I see I have to keep trying to solve this (46.1), but it seems I won't find anything there to fight (46.3 empty city). Hexagram 19 never comes out to manifest in any discernable change to me, I take it to mean that an answere is coming or that I need to look at the whole issue from a broader perspective, maybe.

I do notice that in both answers that there seems to be nothing there (32.4 & 46.3) but something is going on. If anyone can interpret this to a concrete cause, please do.

:confused:

Hexagram 46 tells us to go see "the great man." In this case, that would almost certainly be a doctor. I find that the I Ching is very difficult to interpret when it comes to medical issues, but in this case without a doubt it has directed you to see a doctor. :)

When I hear about digestion/bowel problems I firmly believe that they are caused by wrong food.
My main food now is fruit juice and I feel very good.

OK, ok to the reading:
A lot of 29's - abyss upon abyss, repeating pattern, you are doing something again and again to cause this.
Also there is a cure - just try fasting on 29 - water (from a natural source/spring/well (bottled will do)) for a couple of days at least - you will see the result.

What factors are causing this sickness? 32.1.4 → 11
Nigel Richmond is spot on:

1. When inner energy does not flow we turn to something new in our environment for comfort, stimulation, food for identity.

The Chinese image:
He concentrates on his desire for continuation. Misfortune.

His desire for continuation is for this identity-feeling to continue, it requires activity, demands experience, or it fears for its validity and existence. This makes it difficult for us to follow the tao when it is inactive.


Do you eat just because you are bored? Maybe too much comfort/junk food? Which just 'tastes good' but doesn't do much else.
Yi is saying that your habit is causing this, you need to drop it. Yes it's not so easy but you should do it.

4. ... we are concentrating on this outer place for our sense of activity; we are looking in the wrong place.

The Chinese image: No game in the field.

We are searching outside for what is inside, but what we seek will come from the inner, from nowhere it will seem, it does not exist out there.


I think that further describes the roots of the problem, the psychological/emotional ones. Are you trying to eat your problems away? To fill the void with some 'outside junk'?

Hex 11, Nigel:
The Chinese Oracle:
Peace.
The narrow goes, the wide comes. Good fortune and success.


Comments:
Narrow in the sense of mean or narrow minded; wide in the sense of greatly accepting. Good fortune and success in furthering us along our path of experience. Recognition is directed towards the infinite.

Become more aware of your habits, realize that there are other types of 'food' available, listen closely to what your body is trying to tell you (we are so used to ignoring the signs it's sad).
When you do this, the balance will be restored and the inner source will provide the outer experience and flow.

What steps can I take to offset/prevent symptoms? 46.1.3 → 19
46 Ascend mentally, take a new approach to life.
1 Listen to your inner self
3 Then just ride that life force, easy.

Wow ashteroid, that was amazing! The water fast makes sense, I keep electrolyte water for the dizziness. I try to eat healthy but I am allergic to and/or intollerant of just about every fruit and vegetable, along with most natural remedies (garlic, turmeric, magnesium). In fact, the symptoms seem to come when I begin taking any supplement, even ones I have taken before with no ill effect. I find myself eating candy, and salty foods, especially at night, which I keep around to offset the nausea. I guess my body is just not going to tolerate this anymore!
