The Yi was a little tongue-in-cheek

I wanted to meet up with a facebook acquaintance this evening and, well, inquired about it. I was not hopeful of a romantic involvement, but just curious, the guy is really smart and spiritual. The casting was hexagram 23.6 - which, I swear (I can't find that exact text) speaks about a snake coiling so that her head can't be hurt. So, I concluded, this is nothing particular for this meeting, he will probably mention some snakes or animals, or it will be quite random, let's see. Ten minutes into our conversation and there he is talking how snakes hide their heads by coiling and hiding so that they avoid being killed, only injured.
I would have interpreted it in some metaphysical, metaphorical way if it was any other moment, I swear, but when he mentioned that precise sentence (and I was talking about cats), I was thinking should I tell you or not, you'll think I'm totally crazy, and not a "prophet". :) I was totally accepting it at face value - at one point, he will say how snakes coil.

I've never seen any text about coiling snakes in connection with 23.6. I think this might simply be your own prophetic-intuitive self at work, using a hexagram along the way.

Yes, I've tried to find basically anything about snakes in the I Ching in connection to 23.6, but I couldn't. It's so weird.

Maybe you were thinking of this thread



There I talked about my 24.1.6>23 reading as 'serpent eats it's tail'. That's how I thought of it not what Yi said. However there's nothing there about coiling so her head cannot be hurt.


It could be you plucked the image from somewhere and your intuition used it as H said

Sounds familiar, but I had absolutely no time to check Clarity for info. It could be that the page that I consulted was using your reference about Ouroboros, and my subconscious interpreted it differently. Still, it's so so weird.

I've had a couple of weird and apparently pointless 'prophetic' moments too over the years, though none with associated hexagrams. Like walking to a rehearsal, idly imagining what it would be like to meet a German 'cellist at orchestra - and arriving at the rehearsal hall to find one person already waiting: a new 'cellist, who was German. Absolutely nothing of any significance followed from this - it was just weird. A reminder that things are not arranged quite how we think they are.

I had those moments where my wishes completely aligned with the upcoming events. Like when I wanted to be gifted a guitar, a sewing machine and a pomegranate, all three quickly came. But an event this detailed is kind of funny and bizarre, even for some of us who do have these glimpses through reality, sometimes.

I asked I ching what is the meaning of this event.
Hex 49.2.6. - something about a leopard transformation and that I should just hold on for a bit, that it's not yet done. So, a sort of signal. That is really nice.
