what can i expect if i continue to move in the direction i am going?
  
  
    and received a response of:
  
  
    
  
  
 
  
   
  
    2 Earth
  
  
    
      
      The Statement of the first hexagram
    
    
      Earth: maker, everywhere. 
Gain from a mare's purity.
The noble one wanting to go far
is first confused, but later finds guidance. 
Gain friends in the west and south,
Lose friends in the east and north.
Peace: this is a sign of fortune.
    
   
  
    The changing lines
    
        
    The second line:
    Straight, square, great-
this leads to spontaneous 
and undoubted gain.  
  
    The third line:
    Hide your talents, but stay steadfast
if you would be of royal service.  
     
   
 
    
  
  
 
  
   
  
    46 Rising
  
  
    The Statement of the second hexagram
  
  
   Rising. Great continuing. 
Act now to see the great person. 
Do not be distressed. Advance southward:
fortune.
  
   
 
     
    
        
    The Image of the first hexagram
  
  
    Ground as the power 
of earth:
the noble one generously
supports all things.  
      
      
      
      
     
    
        
    The Image of the second hexagram
  
  
    Wood growing in the 
center of the land: rising. 
The noble one is mild, 
gradually raising what is 
tiny into the tall and great.
