Hello Belinda! I just discovered your delightful channel here. May I ask a question? How did you come upon the hexagram for Decreasing? Is this a seasonal hexagram...one that comes up just after the Winter Solstice? I just have one book on the I Ching...written by Alfred Huang and he lists this hexagram as corresponding to the 7th month of the Lunar year or August. Thank you for your thoughts/wisdom! ))
Hi Denis! Thank you so much for being here and posting a lovely comment. That's a great question. For every month and week, I cast the coins to the question "What should we focus on for this month/week?" So the hexagrams that come up are directed based on how the coins come out to that question. There are often fascinating correlations that come up anyway, like getting a 'full moon' hexagram in a full moon week or even an eclipse hexagram (like Hexagram 55) in eclipse season. I trust that helps? 🙂
Thank you! Wonderful guidance!❤️
