Hello Clarity friends!

As usual, I come back to you when a reading really looks contradictory in itself to me...

So I've been writing this self-help book for 4 months now, and think I might be half-way-ish through (would like to have a 1st draft by end of the year).
It is a self-help book btw, and after a PhD career (in electronics) and a successful career as a fine art photographer, I am now training as a life coach (using I Ching among many other things), and this book is quite auto-biographical describing this spiritual journey.
Somehow I see this book as a way to transmit the life-changing experiences that I have accumulated, as well as a tool in order to help shift my career towards helping people.

I asked "What is the role of this book going to be in my life?", and the answer was:
14.1.2.4.5.6 towards 39.
I see 14 as a very powerfull hexagram in terms of realization, and I see 39 as a very powerfull hexagram of non-realization.
Having so many lines moving on 14... do I need to see this as the situation having the 14 energy exhausted and *moving towards* 39? Or on the other hand needing to put more emphasis on 14, by paying attention to each of aaaaall those moving lines?

Thank you so much for your insights!!

All the best,

I'm not sure this is contradictory. To be sure, your relating figure does not indicate an outcome. It can, but not necessarily. I think that 39 simply represents difficulties involved with this book; it simply won't be easy.
Based on what you've said, and Hexagram 14, this sounds like a culmination of long term goals/spiritual work. The lines seem to work well with 39.
Without mingling with harm.
In no way faulty.
Drudgery by consequence without fault.

The great chariot used to carry.
Possesing directed going.
Without fault.

In no-way one's preponderance.
Without fault.

Your conforming: mingling thus.
Impresing thus. Significant.

The origin in heaven shields it.
Significant, without not Harvesting.

This endeavor may be difficult (drudgery/opposition); Yet, all of the lines look good. So, I expect this will ultimately go well for you. Also, based on line 3, you should avoid trying to force things. If anything feels forced, I would re-evaluate whatever feels strained.

Maybe the sales will not be what you are expecting, if you have any expectations, that is. Has an editor given you feedback yet?

Thank you very much for you answers Sun Wukong and Moss Elk, they are very helpful.Moss Elk: so far this book has presented itself to me as an evidence, I have started writing it without waiting for any kind of feedback. My idea was to start looking for feedback once it's finished...thanks again!
