What could help me to handle this situation better?
and received a response of:
62 Small Crossing
The Statement of the first hexagram
Small crossing. Continue for gainful purity.
Small matters can be done,
but not large matters.
Flying birds leave their sound:
it is unsuitable to go high-
the suitable is below.
Great fortune.

The second line:
Crossing to one's ancestors,
meeting one's dead mother.

meeting his minister. No fault.
