Hexagram Thirty-nine Your symbol is Hexagram 39, getting stopped. Inability to take the next step is delaying progress. Seek help from a wise person, then apply your own sincerity to the situation. The first line, yin, shows that moving forward will only cause more problems. It this situation it is better not to do anything. The second line, yin, shows the situation of people who take on troubles on account of others, with little gain for themselves. They may stop one's progress, but not for personal reasons. The third line, yang, shows one who makes it thorough one difficult situation, only to fall into another. When no more progress can be made, return home. The fourth line, yin, shows one moving forward to situations of greater difficulty. Unable to progress, this person meets with the like minded friend of the previous line, providing each other comfort and balance. The fifth line, yang, shows one who struggles with a difficult situation. Friends come to help, since they have been in similar situations. The sixth line, yin, shows one who goes forward as if to purposely increase the difficulty, then standing still. This person shows his/her greatness in this way, and seeks favors from those who can help. To the reader: In all of the hexagrams, at least one of the lines may predict bad results, but that does NOT mean you are destined to get that result. The meaning is that you need to study the action-reaction to see what could go wrong. From there, focus on the positive outcomes in other lines. Study how different attitudes lead to better outcomes. Your future is in your hands. Consult the I Ching for ideas that lead to clear thinking and positive mental attitude. The I Ching teaches you to flow with changes. Create positive change from the inside through conscious living. Take the time to reflect on your attitudes and ideas.
