53 – development

Questions on Hexagram 53

  • A user receives hexagram 55 – development as the I Ching’s answer to a situation which he describes as follows: “The development was actually foreseeable for a long time, but I refused to see it.

  • One user described his situation as follows: “My partner went to her native country for a month’s holidays. Alone as I am now, I feel lost. My reason for coming back from abroad and to stopping my doctoral studies was to be with her. And now she is far away from me. On the other hand, I feel that, if I do not define or find what I want to do (my career), I cannot go back. I feel fear. My question to the I Ching: what do I need to know?”*
