Hello everyone,
I'm trying to make sense of a couple of answers I got regarding the question, which course shall be the best to take in my situation. Right now, I'm working on an idea which lacks a good amount of funding, so I would like to give it a try and attracting a couple of sponsors or investors. There are actually some options, I've asked about two of them, however, I'm not so sure about the right interpretation and I'm hesitant to throw the coins again before I'd completely figured out the answers before.
My first alternative is to work on the project with some interested amateurs, who are pretty much engaged in working out some kind of a "test balloon", if you will. Since this would be "our work" as a team, most of them would be part of the whole project to the end, however, they're all somewhat amateurs in a very competitive field, but I am not pretty much established, too, even if I have some decent background in this field.
What would be the result with regards to my search for sponsors and investors, if we would work on a "test balloon" in order to show potential investors what the work could look like, I threw 37.2.3.5 > 41.
Here is my personal take on this: I guess, line 2 would describe the general work we would've to do, which could prove to be quite difficult, since we all had to prioritize, making a living, finding some spare time to work on it, so understandably not everyone would be that motivated or disciplined (line 3), so the whole team had to be integrated with mutual understanding and a positive atmosphere in order to get something going (line 5). I'm not sure about the resulting hexagram, though. Thats the tough part - I asked for the specific result, so 41 could be nothing at all. On the other hand, the empty couldron could signify the work described in order to fill the cauldron. I'm not so sure about it.
Second alternative is to just pitch the project without doing any further work and searching for investors and sponsors to do all of the work afterwards.
My exact question was:
What would be the result with regards to my search for sponsors and investors, if I would just pitch the project and looking out for sponsors and investors right away? I threw 51 unchanging.
I have no idea what to make of it. It could easily mean that everything will be destroyed and is totally hopeless, then again I found some references that it could signify some kind of a "pleasant shock", just like winning the lottery or something (well, I don't gamble too much tbh). Maybe someone can enlighten me on this? The WikiWing interpretation doesn't really apply to this situation, so I'm basically at a loss and again, I'm not so sure about casting it again.
I will inform you which way I chose to go and how it all work out, but maybe I will give it another casting in the next few days, if I'm still not sure what to make of it.
Oh, well, and I hope you don't mind my English - it's not my first language, unfortunately.
Have a great pleasant day everyone! :bows:
