Hi, dearest IChingers!

I like to share with you the outcome of two readings with the hope that they can be of interest and help in deepening the IChing understanding.

Recently I traveled by train to Milan, my hometown, and HAD to be back to Ancona where I live at the moment, in time to be picked up at the Railway Station.

I found myself running late and realized I could miss my train to Ancona because I still needed to:
- travel by car to the village where to return the rented car - about 30 minutes;
- catch a local train to Milan to the closest Subway station - 42 minutes;
- get to the Central Railway Station - 20 minutes;
- get to the track - a few very important minutes.

Two trains suited my schedule: the first one gave me 8 minutes buffer to catch the local train. If I lost that train I would have to wait one hour for the next one that would arrive at the Central Station with a buffer of just a handful of minutes before departure.

I felt under stress…

My question to the beloved IChing has been:
Will I manage to catch the first option train? 18.2 > 52

I thought this answer was plain and clear, so fearing the worst I asked:
Will I eventually be in time for the second option? 59.2.3.5.6 > 15

What do you get from the IChing answers?

I’ll post the outcome in a couple of days! In the meatime :hug: :hug: :hug:

I see 18.2 > 52 reading as being basically unfavorable for catching something on time. It suggests you're going to be standing still (52), which is exactly not what you want. You might get there but have to catch the second train an hour later (18.2).

59.2.3.5.6 Dispersion > 15 Modesty suggests much more favorable circumstances. All the 59 lines are basically positive in this case, though there might be some stress involved (59.5).

I say train #2 is what you end up catching.

Thank you liquidity for taking the time to read my post! :bows:

I read a lot of other people's threads to learn about I Ching and would like very much to find the outcome or the update in all of the posts. I find it really helpful but it is actually quite rare to find them.

I'll give it some more time for people to form their own opinion about the Hexes I got and then I'll post what happened.

All the best! :)

Hi, so here what happened.

On my way to return the car it looked like I could easily make it in time for the first option train, and I felt good about it. Then I took a wrong turn and had to go and go and go before I could make a U-turn. There vanished my chance to catch the first option train.

I started to psyche myself up concentrating on making it with the next train but felt very very worried and the level of stress skyrocketed. Then something happened with me: I felt deeply tired of being worried and stressed out, I felt so tired that something in me gave up. I could not find the energy to worry at all or do anything at all. I considered what the worst case scenario could be and that ment having to spend more money than budgeted in order to get home. I thought Ok, if it is ment to be this way, lets have it this way.

I went about the rest of the trip to my train a profound inner relaxation, and was there 10 minutes before the train departure…
