Sell the house or not?

[cirka09]

I've been thinking about selling my house and moving back into an apartment. The house is really stretching my limits as I'm having a lot of trouble keeping up and making it from pay check to pay check. I could try and sell the place and move back into an apartment that would be much easier for me to afford, but bad economy = crappy time to try and sell house... Anyway, I asked "How will selling my house and moving back into an apartment impact my life?"
The answer was 52.3 > 23
So now I'm wondering if I should have phrased the question differently... 52 is keeping still, but I'm not sure what it's referring to... that selling would allow me to keep still... or dont sell it and just stay where I am(52). Because it doesn't further me to undertake anything?(23)

as the only moving line 52.3 is very important here. I'm not sure it answers your question directly, it suggests you are really bottling something up, forcing yourself to stay calm when you are not, not going with your instincts, splitting yourself in two between what you head tells you and what your heart tells you.

if you force your heart to obey your head it is very unhealthy and unhappy for you. Therefore this answer urges you to reunite with your true wishes ratter than trying to rationalise it.

I'd say Yis advice on how you make this decision is don't quash what your heart wants...economy or no economy theres other factors here that are more important...like how you feel

I guess on a more pragmatic level forcing yourself to stay put is very uncomfortable...its not the way to go. if you have the urge to move...then move. Sounds like you want to move but the thought of bad economic times stops you. I'd say don't let these rational thoughts stop you.

But this is all very much about what you really truly want to do, thats very important here. when you can get in touch with what your heart wants you make the right choice

I really agree with trojan. The hexagram is about Keeping Still, and in general it advises keeping still -- but in that one line, keeping still is killing you (that is, keeping still from where you want to go). What you really want is what's most important here.
