One good way to be corrected is to
to ask about dreams that you can
remember. I try to write down my
dreams and then I ask what can
I learn about that dream.
The answers can be very helpful.

I had a relationship with a person
and then the moving line said she
was “afflicted with negative emotion”.
So I then asked what can I learn about those
negative emotions. The answer was
no. 11 with no moving lines - this was
so insightful about this person.

I think the lines between two corresponding
lines are something like this answer -
they relate to something about the persons -
the way the energy is moving around them
that is the obstacle.

i concur on the importance of getting in touch with now through i ching.Even a cursory look at a morning devination made in the consciousness of a sincere heartfelt desire to know thyself by knowing now brings growth and learning.Perhaps thats an excuse for me but feeling up to a daily reading in the morning querying ‘me in the now today’,tells me i’m feeling good.When lacking in confidence I have trained myself to call the prayer circle and start reciting the lords prayer and psalms over and over in my head while doing Gurdjief excercises.Incidentally, Gurdjief made all his students learn to embarass themeselves to the point of Nirvana!As a disgusting metaphor i guess what i’m saying is that as close as i can come to problem solving with the i ching as you did is shoving the entire book up my arse before leaving the house and hells bells.I grab my heart by the balls(Americans are uncouth);and, proceed with caution.

I’ve tried daily but found it was Too Much Information - but I know many people have read daily for years, so this must just be me being slow.

Some commentators describe some of the lines inbetween corresponding ones as interfering or resisting the union. I’ve never found this especially useful.

Often I ask what time is it? every
day. It changes every day.
Today it was 62 with no
changing lines.
It is nice to know. I can feel that
is how I should approach the day before
I ask but
asking and receiving enforces my
feelings.
I have a question if anyone knows - what does
it literally and /or spiritually mean when there
are two lines that want to approach each other,
say the 5th and the 2nd and that there are two
lines in between. What do the two lines
signify in between signify?
