What do I need to know about how my freind feels about me and this relationship?

[amy luisa]

After speaking with my friend the other night, i drew this Hexagram. Out of curiosity, i went to a couple of websites, as well as this one, to try and read up on what they mean.


LEFT SIDE - Hex 30.Li/The Clinging Fire
Hexagram Number 30
Keyword(s): Fire
Symbolic of: clinging

THE LÎ HEXAGRAM - The General Meaning

Lî indicates that, (in regard to what it denotes), it will be advantageous to be firm and correct, and that thus there will be free course and success. Let (its subject) also nourish (a docility like that of) the cow, and there will be good fortune.

I feel that this represents how he feels about me and the relationship. being firm about his intentions? I am still trying to figure this one out. Maybe that he wants to go ahead and start again, but he might be scared? We were speaking about getting too intense about this, however, its kind of difficult

RIGHT SIDE
Hexagram Number 56
Keyword(s): The Stranger
Symbolic of: exile

THE LÜ HEXAGRAM - The General Meaning

Lü intimates that (in the condition which it denotes) there may be some little attainment and progress. If the stranger or traveller be firm and correct as he ought to be, there will be good fortune.

I feel that this represents him "being cautious and careful" about our friendship. This is what i get out of this meaning. I also think that this will come to a conclusion soon, perhaps this summer as indicated before, and there will be some sort of exile. either with someone or some circumstance.


Thank you for letting me post this. just wanted to get a couple of opinions on my reading. thank you again. Does anyone know of a website that can possibly translate these words in a way that is easier? I try to imagine how the readings pertain to my questions, but they get to be too difficult. i would like to know where on the web that there is an easier way to learn the lingo.

30.1 > 56

Well, you know that he likes you, as there is a lot of passion and intensity here but he knows in his heart that you and him can never be together as one, that there will always be a distance between you, because his marriage is preventing him from going any further.

 

[amy luisa]

yes

oh yes, but there were other elements in this reading.

Can someone translate the meanings of these two Hexigrams?

Exile and the wanderer.

trying to understand.

also, what does it mean that one Hex is on the left side and the other on the right.
do they show times?

the seasons are posted on the bottom of all Hex's. does this have a significance?

please help me to translate.

thank you.

want to know how my friend feels about me and this Relationship.

A translation from one of the readers here that I think i would like to know. Is my Friend E - The Wanderer or am I?

The wanderer feels a wanderlust because he is unable to feel at ease in the circumstances that currently surround him ( on any one or a combination of levels). Something doesn't feel right, he has an itch and he's just got to scratch it. To do this he has to give up his 'fixed home' and sets of in another direction, it may not even matter to him which direction he takes. He is looking for a change of circumstances to experience that will make him feel more at home, so that things will make more sense for him

Don't You Wish that all men were like that and never ever left their wives. Paul Newman, who was married while he met Joanne Woodward. He never should of left his wife. Richard Burton, Spencer Tracy, Yuri Zchivago (LOL) And all the others out there...so noble. don't you wish that the world would have wonderful men wo were so happy that they never strayed??:bows:

I would take the Hexagram 30.1 to mean that he sees your connection as difficult for him and not something to which he can bring great finesse and credibility because it has spark but no fuel. It is a bit awkward for him and there is no practical basis to keep going with it.

LiSe describes the person in this line as offering a "clumsy truth" and I visiualise somebody who has to make great effort with no possiblity of enduring success, at least not in the terms you may be hoping for here. A clumsy truth sounds like a relationship you don't want out in the light of day necessarily because the fact of the matter is, it's not a perfect nor really desirable connection. I agree with Willow Fox, this relationship is something that will remain at a distance. To me, Hexgram 56 in my own readings has generally denoted something temporary lacking any kind of durability.

thank you so much for the reading

:bows:This guy is a friend of the family, he is part of my "Clan" so to speak, we have known each other for years, and are from the same "Family" and like The Great Gatsby, he is to be married, and i am to be his freind. this is how it worked out. we know this.

i do date BTW. E and I are very very close, and we will always be close, throughout both of our divorces and problems, this "married man" and i remain extremely close and consider it a great blessing to have found each other again, after over 33 years. We always have something to talk about and learn and teach each other. I am not a victim. Nor is he a bad man. Crap happens in our lives. Destiny throws us a curve sometimes, its good to know that you still have an emotional "bond" with the same person since you were 17 and 18. Whatever the I-Ching says, well, i will take it. But still, this is never going to be a bad thing. we are great friends. we are just two people thrown together again.

thank you for your Interpretation of my reading though. much appreciated.

If he is married, let him go for now. If his marriage ends, fine. But don't count on him leaving his wife for you. Men rarely do that. They will make excuses about there being complications, and so on and so on just to keep a woman on the hook. There is a wide world out there. Find someone who is available. Line one says, "One's steps are confused." This is a very confusing situation. It also says "one is too ambitious." It sounds to me like you are trying to bite off more than you can chew. I mentioned before hexagram 56 can mean your ambitious nature in line 1 can drive him away. It can also mean straying, but in this case not very likely permanently. Lots of men like to have a mistress and they will promise them anything to keep them around, but divorce costs men a lot of money, and there are property settlements to be considered, a man can lose most of what he has worked for, not to mention being tied up in the courts... Then beyond that, once he is divorced, he might decide he wants to play around a bit and not get right back into a serious relationship. You are playing with fire here and you are likely to get hurt. It has nothing to do with morals, it is just not smart to get involved with a married man. You may think it is true love, but he may be thinking other things. There are good men out there who are available. Find one.

Its like the "fellowship of the rings", its a friendship that cannot be broken by neither time nor distance, you were apart physically for 33 years but not mentally, so this coming back together is just a natural conclusion, a closing of the circle.

You both compliment each other, he is the leader and you are the follower, and there will be more meetings to come, as now the purity of the relationship needs to shine afresh as your friendship cannot be stopped.

Amy Luisa, you cast for a certain question about "what do I need to know about how my friend feels" and everybody so far is trying to give you a reasonable interpretation of what you've cast. However, you are simply arguing back at each of us that it isn't true. So, what do YOU think you need to know and how do YOU interpret what you have cast? Maybe that's a better place to start.

 

[amy luisa]

yes of course yes

thank you thank you:bows:
