Should I go? 17(1) - 45

[florecilla]

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!
My boyfriend has to go to his home town for the weekend and he has to leave on friday morning, I would like to go with him but that means I need to take the day off. I asked the I Ching for advice on this and I got hexagram 17 (1) changing into hexagram 45.
I also asked What are his feelings for me? (as he never says anything) and I got hexagram 24 unchanging.
The third question I asked is What do I need to know about my relationship with him? and I got hexagram 3 (2, 6) changing into hexagram 61.
Could you help me please?
Thank you so much

I think you should go with him, yes.

enjoy

Definitely go.

24 is very good for any relationship, but it requires perseverance to make a marriage, and for love there is a need for sincerity as well. 24 also indicates that he is an attractive man to many women; so, you ought to be vigilant.

3 is a retrenchment, and thus requires a recognition that there are many obstacles and problems in the love affair. If you are seeking a late marriage, then 3 is very good. However, the moving lines warn not to force anything, and to see that there is love in the air. The consequent 61 means that in the end you are both very compatible for love or marriage, depending on what it is that you seek. One must remember that love and marriage are not the same thing. Marriage is an institution, not a vehicle of love except accidentally or if you subscribe to traditional romantic love, which the ancient Chinese did not do.

Take the day off and go, you will have a good time (17 to 45)
He wants the relationship to last (24)
He feels sincere love in his heart for you (61)

i do not know how others see "happily ever after" in "bloody tears flow" but for me when it comes to relations "Horse and wagon part." + "bloody tears flow" means just one thing.
it is true tho it will be a while until then, so enjoy it while it lasts.

Thank you all for your answers, they are very good and positive. I will definitely go with him.
On the other hand, What do you mean with "I should be vigilant"? Do you think he might be with other women?????? Is there a way to ask that to the I Ching?? (I know there are some women after him... but he always tells me I can trust him).
Gato, your answer is the one I don't understand. Please, could you explain it further??? Which hexagrams do you refer to? is your answer negative??
Thank you all again, I really apreciate your insights.

Gato, after thinking and reflecting about your answer, I would like to share with you my thoughts, I don't know if I am wrong, but there it goes....
I have always understood the first hexagram and its lines as a description of the current situation, and the resulting hexagram as the posible outcome. Hexagram 3 with lines 2 and 6, in a way, reflect our beginning as it has been difficult, not because of us, but because all the things that are happening around us, and right now, I am the one with lots of fears and ghosts in my head. Any way, I think this hexagram refers to this current situation, and hopefully hexagram 61 will be the outcome of my relationship. What do you think? Others may respond too, your insight are really welcome!!

In your first question you asked if you should take this trip. You received 17.1. Following. The first line of any hexagram describes a situation BEFORE you get into it. So 17.1 is telling you that before you Follow anyone you should get out and meet lots of different kinds of people. I believe this is encouraging you to take the trip, but from the perspective that you are getting out into the world to meet new people and not that this trip symbolizes the two of you having a commitment. Go with the idea that you are 45. Friends.

You then asked what his feelings are towards you and you received 24. Return which says that after a lot of back and forth he ultimately wants to return to his home base, his familiar family. I read this as meaning at this point his feelings are that he has enjoyed talking but he basically has his habits and you are going to have to accept him just the way he is. If he has invited you - your posting didn't say - to visit to his family, I think this is a good omen. However, if you are just inviting yourself be careful, he may actually be trying to withdraw.

What you need to know about this relationship:
3.2 Beware that he may give orders, run things without asking you what you want to do.
3.6 You may have to put out quite a bit of effort to train this puppy.
61. Either you know in your heart you are right for each other or you know that this really isn't the way to go. Trust that feeling.
