Everything that you do during this period, for which you undertake, will end in a successful result. Some invisible force will strengthen your relationship with people, help you establish new close contacts, which, one way or another, will become favorable for you. Past labors and efforts will be paid. A woman is chasing you, she seeks to block your path, to interfere with the implementation of your intentions, to interfere in your life. Regardless, your wishes will come true.
We had a chance to repeatedly make sure that the hexagrams in the "Book of Changes" follow one after another according to the principle of opposites. So in this case, after the description as disunity, there is a hexagram denoting reunion. This reunion, in fact, was already outlined as an internal quality in the previous situation. Here it is the main theme of this situation.
IN ancient China the king was considered as a living representative of all fathers, i.e. previous kings. In this respect, the antithesis of the living and the dead is used in given aphorism. But the aphorism speaks not only of antithesis, but also of the reunion of these opposites. In the same sense, one has to understand the meeting with a great man, about which the text speaks.
Since it speaks of reunion in general, in all its options, then an indication is given of reunification as a serious and major matter, for which great sacrifices are necessary. If all this is observed by a person, then the favorableness of his action, even if it be large, is guaranteed by itself. In the text here we read:
Reunion. Accomplishment. The king approaches the owners of the temple (to the spirits of the ancestors). Favorable meeting with a great man. Favorable stamina. A great sacrifice is needed, then happiness. It's good to have somewhere to go.
Truth as a reflection of reality is born in synthesis. Since here, in the first position, the possibility of synthesis is only outlined, truthfulness here cannot be brought to an end. Thanks to this, the result of an activity built on such incomplete truthfulness can be both harmonious and inharmonious.
If the result of activity leads to chaos, then a person can only mournfully exclaim about it. On the contrary, if the result does lead to reunification, then it will be achieved. In any case, fear in such activities could only harm a person. Therefore, the Book of Changes advises:
Weakness in the beginning. If you are truthful, but not completely, then there can be both confusion and reunion. Then you will exclaim, but everyone will immediately gather and there will be laughter. Don't be afraid. If you go, there will be no blasphemy.
Reunification can also occur with the passivity of one of the uniting parties. She can only be infatuated. But even this can guarantee favorable outcome. And if this outcome is favorable, then it will require the expenditure of only small sacrifices, for the matter is not in the number of victims, but in the truthfulness and reverence with which the sacrifice is made. In this sense, the text says:
Weak trait in second place. Let yourself be carried away, and there will be happiness. There will be no bullshit. If you are truthful, it favors the need to make even a small sacrifice.
The process of reunification can go wrong, it can lead to regret. And it is precisely this possibility that is reflected in the third position of the crisis. Inasmuch as the process does not end there, it is necessary to step out of it. This is the best that can be done, but even then the person may regret that he missed a more favorable moment - the previous second position. So, the text says:
Weak trait in third place. Reunion and sighs. Nothing favorable. If you speak, then there will be no blasphemy, but only a little regret.
But now the moment of crisis has passed, and for the first time a person has the opportunity of a true reunion. It goes without saying that this moment is embraced by the experience of happiness. So the laconic text says:
Strong feature in fourth place. Great happiness. There will be no bullshit.
The happiness that is experienced at the previous stage can be a force that attracts everyone around you. Therefore, in this situation, everyone can, strives not for the person who occupies the main, fifth position, i.e. to the one who is the bearer of reunification par excellence, and to his forerunner - the person symbolized by the fourth line.
Therefore, some distrust may be shown to the main bearer of the principle of reunification. However, this distrust should not confuse him. He must remain steadfast from the very beginning and forever, for he, as one who has gone through the experience of the previous stage, knows that the attraction to the forerunner is only a transitional stage, only part of the path that everyone goes through, striving to reunite with him, who is in the fifth position. . Therefore, the "Book of Changes" here only states:
Strong trait in fifth place. Reunion with the one who occupies the throne. There will be no bullshit. If, nevertheless, there is no trust, then be steadfast from the beginning and forever, then repentance will disappear.
The situation of reunification is favorable, but in the sixth position it comes to an end, this can be experienced by a person as a great grief. He can surrender himself to crying, described in the Book of Changes in the most realistic terms. But the future situation is also favorable. Therefore, the "Book of Changes" consoles here like this:
Above is a weak feature. Complaints, and groans, and tears - up to a runny nose. There will be no bullshit.
The symbol means the beginning of a favorable period. Everything that you undertake during this period will turn out well. All the things started now will end with a successful result.
At present, some invisible force will help strengthen your relationships with people and the emergence of new close contacts, which will become useful and favorable for you in the future.
You are relentlessly pursued by a woman who is trying to interfere with the implementation of your plans, get in your way to your goal and interfere in your life. But this will not affect the result, you will succeed in achieving the main intention.
Past labors will be surely paid, efforts will be rewarded, your wishes will come true.
