Yes, I have been thinking about this ever since I posted it.
Now, I see 43 as having the three components of Decisiveness + Calling Out + Peacefully Getting Rid of.
Line 6 isn't following the advice to call out for help in the matter
and tries to do it himself (but isn't strong enough to do)
and that is where the misfortune comes in.
So, it seems that the possible official that 43 is not directly mentioning is not line 6, but is instead the one thing that all lines are dealing with
it doesn't say anything about not being strong enough to call out it just says she/he/it doesn't
Well, my first thought was, as I said, possibly a minor-ish lord, or small king that isn't doing his job to help the people. So, the others refer the matter to the high king, instead of attacking, as the hex recommends.What is the one thing that you think all lines are dealing with ?
All the lines are 'firm' in allegiance to the cause and means of 43. (decisively + peacefully(calling out) + getting rid of) Except line 6 who doesn't call out.
I think we may logically conclude that line 6's misfortune comes from being decisive + working to get rid of , but tries to do it without calling for assistance... if one were actually powerful enough, they wouldn't need to call for help.
That's not been my sense of the line from experience. 43 isn't only 'getting rid of' it can at times just be announcing. An announcement of intent or simply of presence.
I think the not calling out isn't always about not calling out for help it can be to do with simply not expressing ones wishes, needs or desires
Right, I didn't say it was Only getting rid of, I said I see three distinct components (Decisiveness/Resoluteness + dealing with a problem/ridding of + calling out for help (peaceful method)
A need is a lack of.
The lacking needs help.
The needy calls out and gets help.
The need that doesn't call out is unfortunate.
Well no a need doesn't always need outside help or to call for outside help.
By definition,
one who cries out,
is seeking help.
(whether they know it or not)
The baby cries out..... help comes.
An adult without a partner (who wants one) cries out their loneliness..."hey, what are you doing later?" maybe a date is planned.
Someone is very uncomfortable with a thing, any old thing, cries out (expresses the need) others help with the matter.
All I said was that it should not be considered out of the context of the hexagram.
Is that really so galling to you?
Please notice how 'calling out' is by definition, getting help outside of ONESELF. It even has the OUT part of outside.
I am not determined to see it that way, I just see it that way.
I've seen no evidence that I have mispoken. If I see such evidence my opinion will change.
I also think if you just take the actual words of Yi here you might see that the associations of calling for outside help whilst understandable aren't specifically there in the line.
Bradfords 43 (judgement) has:
A truthful appeal
An appeal is reaching out for help.
I think part of the friction here is that I am speaking of 43 more generally, and you may be focusing on line 6.
(correct me if I'm mistaken)
Now, I see 43 as having the three components of Decisiveness + Calling Out + Peacefully Getting Rid of.
Line 6 isn't following the advice to call out for help in the matter
and tries to do it himself (but isn't strong enough to do)
and that is where the misfortune comes in.
I'll read through the wiki-experiences later today
You see that doesn't mean every time you get 43 you are crying out for help over something now does it ?
quite the opposite,
your own words convinced me that it does
mean reaching-out, calling-out, to others.
Your Pen-emy,
M.E.
