15 – modesty

Scope of Questions

  • A user is very exhausted by the situation he is in at the moment: a lot of (creative) chaos, construction sites, everything is very demanding. He knows that he should let go of all kinds of things, but he doesn’t know where to start. He asks the I Ching for advice and receives hexagram 15 – Modesty as an answer.
  • After a phone call with her husband a user got stomach cramps and vomiting. And suddenly she had the answer in her head: “You have to get a divorce.” Since then she feels deep inner peace, contentment – and no resentment at all. When she later consults the I Ching, the answer is hexagram 15 – Modesty.
  • “Where does the poison in my life come from?” asks a user. “Does it come from the outside or the inside? What is the source of my blockages – and what is it that always gets me tripped up in the end?”
  • One user describes his situation as follows: “We don’t feel very comfortable here in the village and in our house and wonder whether we should change. However, our daughter enjoys the location here very much.”

31 – influence

And now a short recipe for… happiness! 1. Briefly take stock and examine what may be an unnecessary burden, blocking your forces and as a result weakening. Let go all of it! 2. This releases new energies are and off you go…. Without any active involvement from your side, something starts happening: unstoppably, relentlessly, pushing out from your own core. Like a caterpillar inside the cocoon turning into a butterfly, invisibly following its own perfect pathway.

39 – obstruction

Scope of Questions

A user suffers from not having any real contact with people. She asks the I Ching: “What will arise for me from keeping a dream diary? I do have the impression that it will work for me – and that perhaps it will even help me to bridge stagnation and isolation.” The idea of possibly publishing her diary and thereby accepting her life as it is has something redeeming, liberating for her.

52 – keeping still

Case Study

A user consults the I Ching with the following concern: “How can I get to work independently in my profession?” She adds: “This year I attended a professional training course. Since then I have been playing with the idea of working independently, self-employed, to develop a new mainstay. I was really impressed by the speaker at the professional training. And anyway, for some time now I have felt like trying out some new methods and professional approaches.”
The I Ching responds with hexagram 52 – keeping still.

53 – development

Scope of Questions

  • 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. My inability to have a healthy relationship meant that I only ever saw myself, never what we had in common. Now there’s this gap, I’m all alone. Actually, there has been a gap for a long time.”
  • A user: “We have fallen in love with each other, but he remains distant. What exactly does he want from me? Will we have a future together?”
  • Another user: “I don’t know what to do. My husband is no longer interested in me.”
  • 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?”*
  • A user asks: “How can I defeat the inner and outer demons (especially the inner ones) once and for all so that I no longer harm myself or others?”
  • A user spontaneously proposed to his partner over the phone. He then asked the I Ching what it could tell him about this. The answer: Hexagram 53 – the development.
  • One user has the following question for the I Ching: “Does the man I love also love me?” So far, the relationship has mainly taken place in her dreams, in reality there is silence.
  • A user asks: “Where is H. at the moment, how is she?”

56 – the wanderer

Scope of Questions

I have received the following questions regarding hexagram 56 – the wanderer:

  • The user’s question is: “What I can do to enjoy my life more?” She describes her general situation as follows: “I cannot bear disharmony with other people, it paralyzes my life force and makes me feel deeply depressed. At the same time I feel guilty and responsible for the situation. That’s why I’m always the one who takes the first step after disharmony, a pattern I’ve been following since childhood. I would really like to develop something like self-love.”
  • One user writes: “I am self-employed as a parent coach. However, the business is not going well yet. My question to the I Ching: ‘Am I on the right track? Should I rethink my target audience?'”

62 – preponderance of the small

Scope of Questions

  • The exam period is beginning. A user wants the best possible grades for her final exam. However, she feels she has not yet fully mastered the material. Should she postpone the exams? Her question to the I Ching: “Should I do the exams now?”
  • A user asks the following question: “Does he call me because he still has the same feelings as I do? Does he just call out of kindness? Does he call me because he misses me as much as I do? Does he still have feelings for me?” The I Ching’s answer is 62 – Preponderance of the Small.
  • The user’s newly moved-in neighbor repeatedly operates a device that disturbs the peace, triggers violent vibrations and sounds as if a moped was riding up and down in front of and under the apartment all the time. Neither the property management nor the police take the complaints seriously, but the user does not want to move either. His question to the I Ching: “What happens now with this situation?”
