Ok guys...Oftentimes I ask Yi about certain statements that I want to test - whether they are actually real
or is it my wrong vision of things..Wanting an objective truth of course, and being in a very calm relaxed state I ask..So I believe my condition is not altering the reading..

This time I asked Yi about one of them. There is a saying "I will make everything to make you happy with only one condition - that you stay unhappy". - I think this line best represents my mother and her attitude towards me.
Well, I had many thoughts about that, based on her actions, sort of an analysis...And it kept me hoping that it's not true, but at the same time I cannot deny certain facts and things...Well, anyway it's a torture to second-guess all the time, so I asked Yi is this statement true - reflecting on how things are in reality?

Got 49.5 to 55...

Now what does it say? i had to overcome a major transformation to get my confidence back
after much time just submitting to her opinion that degraded me and my right to happiness in ways..

What do you think...
Might be not an easy question...And seems like it's true??

Hi innertruth

Well, anyway it's a torture to second-guess all the time, so I asked Yi is this statement true - reflecting on how things are in reality?

It is!!! I can totally understand you and I can understand you asking this question.

But Trojina has a very strong point when she warns about using the Yijing to "know" what another person feels or thinks or intend.
I mean, you can see the answer as an objective evidence, ok; but it can also be seen as just another way of second-guessing.


Now, your answer can be constructed as
a) answering whether the statement is true (i mean, in a general/abstract sense): in this case, I'd read it as no, this statemet should be changed.

b) answering whether the statement reflects truly your mother's attitude towars you: in this case, I'd read it as no, change the way you interpret her attitude towards you

c) answering the current situation in the relation between you and your mother: In this case, I'd say that currently the relation is hurtful, with lot of worries; but there is a possiblity for a change. The way to achieve a positive change is letting the past in the past and start a new age (49 and 50 form a pair with the metaphore where first you put an end to one dinasty and then you consolidate a new one)

d) giving you an advice about how to deal with your mother's attitude towards you. In this case, I'd read it as advising you to change the way you deal with this mother-issue; for that you need to put order in your ideas and emotions, as if you were a king setting the calendar to rule his kingdom.

Hope this can be useful

Thank you SixthRelative,
All your points say that i need to change my perception...
My mind was trying to find evidence of statement being correct...I thought transformation towards what i am now towards this issue is the right one....but that too was based on this statement...
So i think your point c) applies....
As i asked where the truth lies...
