38 – opposition
…and I return to the world: my (re-)birth!
What reactions do I get? What are the environment’s responses? Am I received with with open arms, listened to carefully? Or does nobody really care about what I have to say, preferring the old „me“? And, how do I respond? No, definitely not retelling the old, pleasing stories. But: my true story. Anything else would result in a false life and we know: there is no right life amidst wrongs.

40 – deliverance
Scope of Questions
Sometimes unexpected twists arise from what initially gave us uneasy feelings. Especially when we examine ambiguous emotional states with a clear head: are these gut feelings actually related to the current situation, to the here-and-now? A cool head may bring liberation. And gut feelings may cause avalanches. In any direction.
I received the following comments regarding hexagram 40 – Deliverance: Continue reading “40 – deliverance”
47 – oppression
Scope of Questions
Here some questions and also a very individual interpretation of hexagram 47 – Oppression:
- “How well developed is my ability to have relationships?”
- “Why is my own life, my urge for self expression, so massively blocked by external needs this year? How can I resolve the conflict?
When working with hexagram 47 – Oppression the user developed his reading of the hexagram which I reproduce here
- “My impulse to express myself artistically is absolutely fine. This impulse results in my energy, the outer impulses (= external needs) bring inspiration and enrich my self-expression. They both procedurally belong together; the subjective is fertilized by encounter and vice versa. There is no contradiction, and it will cost no extra energy – as long as I am aware of it!”

54 – the marrying maiden
Scope of Questions
The Marrying Maiden – what a programatischer title! Although hexagram 54 – The Marrying Maiden most probably speaks about beginnings (beyond partnership!) in general, I have received the corresponding request:
- A user asks: “What is the current state of our connection: Will we have a relationship?”

58 – the joyous
Inhale. Exhale. Inhale again… Only interconnected with my environment I am viable. I can not exist fully isolated, I depend on exchange. Breathing. Acting.
64 – before completion
Scope of Questions
Over the past few weeks users have shared three different scenarios with me that the I Ching had all answered with hexagram 64 – before completion. Here a short description of the individual situations:
- Situation A: A somewhat obscure relationship. The user asked the I Ching what is the best for her to do in the matter.
- Situation B: To save his marriage user B has radically turned away from a to him very important person. He loves his wife and children. Nevertheless he just cannot get this other woman out of his mind. Continue reading “64 – before completion”
