Hello all, I'd like to share a wether very straight forward answer, or a rather dense to unpack one.
I just asked the I-Ching: "How beneficial would be for me to join the next course on family constellations? "
For context, probably you know, but family constellations is a form of work that works with hidden or unconscious dynamics and loyalties we learn in our family of origin (though not exclusively) with the aim to bring consciousness to them, and hopefully walk more freely in personal life. Which is.. my motivation for doing it.
Now, I am not that experienced on the I- Ching, but I think of all hexagrams, the 18 is one of the most packed with references to correction towards the past, and more explicitly to the ancestors. And yet, I haven't asked about the issues specifically coming from them, but IF it has merit for me to do this work, which is where lies my doubth.
I am cautious because not long ago I did one for the first time, and felt authentic, and precisely because of that I wouldn't want to trivialize by overdoing, or by doing it too soon, or any other form of seeking more without reflecting ( “three days before and after…”) Like when you asked the book to many questions without chewing well the first one. Also that relating hex 16... that sometimes could look more of fantasy than a real foundational work... is what I would like to avoid. I want to work this with authenticity, not by being out of touch with reality, which sometimes it can be a risk in some personal development workshops. When one is lost, is easy for some "magicians" to take advantage of.
The 2 line... asks about to be gentle in correcting, the 3 to correct not too harsh.. but yes do it anyway, the 4.... is not correcting and there is shame in not doing it, and then goes the 6 and overcame the whole hexagram transcending the situation.
It seems as if this hexagram shows different aspects to correct, but that was not exactly my question, and still...I have the impulse for keep doing this or other work, but is not something to take lightly… it can be hard and emotionally scary as well.
I am perplexed by the explicity of the references in this cast, What do you see?
