    Sprouting
    Apr 10 2025
    Ludimila had graduated in psychology and opened her doors as a therapist a few years previously, but wondered whether she was being prompted to hold onto her secure, old work as a teacher and translator. So she asked, 'What should I focus on professionally?' and cast Hexagram 3, Sprouting, with no changing lines. It's a beautifully simple answer, and we thoroughly enjoyed exploring it together. Those explorations touched on the nuclear story, at which point I came up with a highly sophisticated visual aid... (This may come in useful towards the end of the episode if you're not familiar with nuclear trigrams and hexagrams!) You can learn more about Ludimila and her work here - she does sessions in both Portugese and English.

    That was Nathaniel's question for this podcast episode. Here's the reading he cast - changing to - Hexagram 26, Great Tending, changing at line 1 to Hexagram 18, Corruption. As you might imagine, the moving line gave us pause for thought! Nathaniel mentioned a previous episode, the one about Family Constellations work, that also featured Hexagram 18, and also Benebell Wen's interesting new translation; I mentioned Margaret Pearson's.

    This episode features a reading for the year ahead. Kalimah's question: "Please comment on the year ahead. What I can expect? And also, how best to work with the energies within and around me?" Yi answered with Hexagram 23, Stripping Away, changing at lines 1, 4, 5 and 6 to 17, Following: changing to The meanings of the two hexagrams turned out to blend and harmonise in a very clear, satisfying way. Kalimah's shared a reading on the podcast once before, a year ago, so we took a moment to review how that reading had worked out. (Here's the original episode.)

    An annual reading, this time: the first thing Maria does on her birthday is to sit down and ask to be shown a reading for the coming year. Here's hers for 2023-24: Hexagram 36, Brightness Hiding, with no changing lines. Since this was an unchanging reading, we had the time and space to explore some of the hexagram's 'relations': its inverse and contrast, 35, Advancing - and its complement or opposite - the hexagram where every line is different - 6, Arguing: And not least, its hidden core, the nuclear hexagram, 40: ...which seemed to open everything out for her. https://livingchange.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/episode47.mp3
