Nine in the Third Place

When retreat is halted because someone who is not functioning on your level
insists on remaining connected you might have to allow the relationship.
This will prevent them from becoming a dangerous enemy.

When held back from the desire to retreat the struggle for freedom can be exhausting.

Nine in the Third Place changes to hexagram 12.

    Maybe the worst line – Changing to 12 – never ending misery –

    Maybe what Buddha was on about – All life is suffering –

    More you suffer – more we’ll share your suffering – sympathetically – with you – with love – The more you suffer the more we love you – until you are downright ill – Then we’ll keep you on life support – !- We are the loving caring people – forever and ever – Amen – !

        • Maybe you are connected to someone you can’t be free of that is tying you down – like the line indicates. I think we all have to deal with that at some point. For the most part when we have to retreat the I Ching tells us how to do it.

          • Ian, I’m not getting what you mean – the 5th line of Retreat? Or did you mean 5th line of Opposition? 5th line in #33 leads to The Wanderer. Hunger strike? Wow! Good way to lose weight if one needs to.
