Read a record of the questions asked of I Ching, read the response, and read the comments of others

What will happen, if I call Lina next Saturday to tell her I am leaving?
and received a response of:
45 Collecting
The Statement of the first hexagram
The king draws near to the temple:
gain by seeing a great person.
Make an offering with purity,
using great sacrificial beasts. Fortune.
Gain by having a place to go.
The changing lines
The first line:
A trust that cannot reach conclusion:
there is confusion, there is collecting amid commands.
One grasps for smiling results-no help.
Depart without fault.
The third line:
Collecting like sighs of regret.
No place is gainful.
Depart without fault. Slight regret.
The fourth line:
Great fortune, no fault.
63 Already Across
The Statement of the second hexagram
Already across. Continue.
Small gain: be steadfast.
In the beginning, fortune.
At the end, disorder.
The Image of the first hexagram
Lake above the earth.
Collecting. The noble one
collects the tools of war
to guard against
unforeseen danger.
The Image of the second hexagram
Water on top of fire:
already across. The wise
one prepares for calamity
by forethought.
