second readings

[barbaloot]

Hi there, I applied for a job recently and I did a reading on how things will go and whether I will get the job. I got the hexagram number 6 song - conflict with no changing lines. However I was feeling in a dark moment when i did the reading. I find sometimes being in a bad state of mind when doing readings can get negative outcomes. So I cleared my mind and did another one asking for advice for the job interview. This time I got 14 ta yu - possession in great measure with no changing lines. So my question is, do other people subscribe to the view that a dark state of mind can influence a reading and therefore a second reading with a clear state of mind will be more accurate. I have read that you should have a clear mind to do a reading. But I have also read that the first reading should be the most accurate and you shouldnt do a second. Thanks in advance for thoughts about this

ps Any insights as to the meanings of these readings would also be appreciated. B

I'm really hoping this will prove different for you.
But every time i ever got a straight 6, it meant a huge NO
("you are sincere, but are being obstructed").

And 14 was also a NO, with additional pat on the back, 'there there now you're great'.

In my experience, state of mind does not really infuence the answer.

Lol ok. So what about the state of mind I was in at the time?

I did another reading asking the exact same question in a clear mental state and I go 13 - fellowship with men, with changing lines 1 and 5 and second hexagram 56 - wanderer

ok so let me clarify that the reading above (in my edit in the last post after your response) was done asking "will i get the job" so the same question as when i got 'conflict'. Does this add any new meaning?
