"there is no beginning, but there is an end
Before the change, 3 days
After the change, 3 days"

A good place to start is here, in the Memorizing Thread for 57. 57.5 is discussed beginning on post #123.

This is one of the most obvious of the Zhi Gua references, to the Gua Ci of 18, where it also talks about 3 days before and after.
It means to put things into a larger context, watch the causes of things, watch things unfold, watch where they are going. See how they go away or end. Get a "process orientation," not a static view.

For your reference:

From a holistic view of six lines, hex 57 sounds a subject of taking over power from an internal reform. Owing to the penetrating capability of the wind, it stealthily sneaks into an organization at position 1, gets through the internal reform and becomes the one who occupies the dominant power at position 5. This can progress smoothly as long as it is small, or do this with a low profile, which is instrumental in doing what is planned, and it is advantageous to see the leader and parasitize him.

There is no beginning, but there is an end

It starts with nobody noticing its existence but finishes the internal reform with a successful ending.

Before the change, 3 days
After the change, 3 days

Wilhelm translated 庚geng as the change. On the other hand Geng is the 7th code of the ten Heavenly stems; the one which is three codes before Geng is Jing, i.e. the 4th code; the code, three codes after Geng, is Gui, the last code, signifying 1) it starts the internal reform shortly before reaching the half time and accomplishes the job in time by the end, or 2) it starts at 57.4 and ends at 58.1 (peaceful talks), or 3) it starts at 57.2 and ends at 58.2 (sincere & trustworthy talks) if 57.5 it taken for the starting point of the change.

My girlfriend had a sore throat it was actually from an accident where it was bumped. We were a little concerned so consulted the Oracle. We took it to possibly mean in a reasonably short amount of time she would feel better. She said it was like a choking feeling but there was no actual bruising. It was actually from a ball.

Anyway in around 3-4 days she felt better, as it was getting better it actually felt itchy there must have been some slight internal damage, bit freaky, i believe the reading was 57.2.5
